Forbes, the famous organization well known for its rankings of the richest people in the world. Has just made another richest people in the world list, BUT with cryptocurrency. A ranking of the richest people in cryptocurrency. The list only features 19 people, because cryptocurrency is hard to track and calculating someone’s crypto assets is hard because it's invisible.

A Forbes editor has gone on the record and said the goal of the list is to,
“[provide] a snapshot of a pivotal moment, part of the transparency needed to pull crypto away from its provenance as the favorite currency of drug dealers and into the adolescence of a legitimate asset class.”
This is what the cryptocurrency needs more recognition and more trustworthy publicly. Forbes is attempting to more crypto a " legitimate asset class". Crypto has been getting a bad wrap lately recent bank bans and country bans. Furthermore, the stigma that of crypto being tied to the dark market buying drugs and weapons with crypto. But this Forbes list is one of the few largescale publicly moves that positively contributes to crypto.

Just something interesting featured within the Forbes ranking is a chart comparing the volatility of popular crypto to stocks of giant corporations and gold. This just puts into perspective to the amount of volatile crypto goes through, but remember more risk more money!
