Bloomberg Analyst Says Satoshi Nakamoto's Wealth Will Surpass Warren Buffet
Bloomberg (ETF) Exchange-Traded Funds analyst Eric Balchunas revealed that the wealth of Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto could overtake the world's veteran investor, Warren Edward Buffett. "If Bitcoin reaches a normal value of 50% each year, Satoshi will surpass Buffett this year and Zuckerberg next year to become the second richest person in the world," said Balchunas through his personal X account. As information, Warren Buffet is the fifth richest person in the world with a current wealth of US$155.2 billion. Satoshi is estimated to have around 1.1 million Bitcoins worth over US$115.5 billion at current market prices. This means that the creator of the largest digital asset could surpass the net worth of Warren Buffett and Mark Zuckerberg if Bitcoin continues its growth rally. Therefore, if Bitcoin grows 50% each year from the current price of US$105,000, then the digital asset could be valued at US$157,000 next year. This means that Satoshi Nakamoto's wealth is predicted to reach US$172.7 billion. "It is very interesting to reflect that the founder of something as successful as (Bitcoin) never monetized it. He is similar to Jack Bogle in this regard," Balchunas continued.
