How much would Satoshi be worth today?

Satoshi Nakamoto, the mysterious creator of Bitcoin and author of the Bitcoin whitepaper, may need to get listed on the Forbes list of Billionaires. At Bitcoin’s current $12,500 price, Satoshi would have a $12.5 billion net worth, solely counting his 1,000,000 BTC holdings. This would rank him as the 106th richest person on the globe, right before Roman Abramovich, owner of the U.K’s Chelsea football team.

The, so far, unknown developer may tackle many other rankings if Bitcoin keeps growing at its current rate. Anthony Pompliano recently announced his Bitcoin 2021 prediction, at a startling $100,000. If this comes true, Satoshi will occupy the 2nd place as the richest person alive, making him richer than Microsoft’s founder, Bill Gates.

Although “Pomp’s” prediction is quite daring, some see this as a fraction of Bitcoin’s near-future potential. One of these people is John McAfee, his prediction is a staggering $1,000,000 per Bitcoin by 2020. If this price is achieved, Satoshi Nakamoto will be removed from Forbes list of Billionaires as he/she will require their own list of Trillionaires.

Many people describe Bitcoin as Gold 2.0. Using that analogy to put Satoshi’s holdings into perspective. The developer would own a larger percentage of the total Bitcoins in the world (4.76%) than the United States of America’s share of gold (4.28%) in the world from the 190,000 tonnes mined. If Bitcoin does become Gold 2.0, Satoshi would “financially” become more powerful than the world’s strongest economy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

Why is there no trial or refund policy?

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

How often is content updated?

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?

We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
