Hi, Blockchain Dude at your service.
Blockchain Dude is an infographic youtube channel about crypto currencies and blockchain technology.
In this episode of Blockchain Dude the top 3 biggest winners in Bitcoin.
BitesizeBitcoin, Peter Saddington is a serial entrepreneur and bitcoin enthusiast. I mentioned this guy in my earlier Top 10 best crypto currency Youtube channels. This dude is pretty much a winner in Bitcoin, he just bought his Lamborghini Huracan with Bitcoin.
A few years ago he saw an article in a magazine about Bitcoin and bought in on 2 dollar per Bitcoin. The Lambo is just proof he knows how to HODL his coins. This dude gets the third place in the Top 3 biggest Bitcoin winners.
On two we have Erik Finman a teenager and high school dropout who invested in Bitcoin in 2011 at 12 dollar a coin and is now millionaire at 18 years old. Through selling companies and other investments, he now has 403 bitcoins, worth more than 2 million.
He made a bet with his parents that he would go back to school if he didn’t made it to become a millionaire by 18.
“I can proudly say I made it, and I’m not going to collage” Finman stated.
This kid has already made a great story for himself at 18, that is why he stand at two in the Top 3 biggest Bitcoin winners.
But few people are likely to be profiting more from the price of Bitcoin than Satoshi Nakamoto, the mysterious creator of bitcoin.
Satoshi Nakamoto, the first person on the bitcoin network and the first person to "mine" for bitcoin is guaranteed to have very substantial holdings. Bitcoin developer Sergio Lerner estimated back in 2013 that Satoshi may have around 1 million bitcoin.
At $9000 per bitcoin, that translates to a fortune worth around $9 billion.
What's also significant is the sheer scale of Satoshi's holdings relative to the total number of bitcoin. Because of the way the digital currency is coded, there will only ever be a maximum of 21 million bitcoin. Right now, there are 16.7 million bitcoin in circulation.
This means Satoshi holds 6% of all bitcoin currently in circulation. And he will hold 4.8% of all bitcoin created, ever.
So we all can agree on the fact the mysterious mister Satoshi is the absolute number one in our Top 3 biggest Bitcoin winners.
Please let know what your experiences are with Bitcoins, and name your biggest Bitcoin success story you know in the comments.
