I would consider someone a Bitcoin millionaire if they had over 100 BTC, and especially over 1000 BTC.

LOL i can't believe this whole thread so far is about "What do you mean by a Millionaire"

Obviously he means you had a bunch of Bitcoin, preferably by investing little to no money, then one day woke up and had the equivalent of a million US Dollars or more.

And then an even better variation of the story is that you cashed out and bought your own Jet.

Seems pretty obvious that's what he's looking for.  Success stories!

I don't necessarily think that having a net worth of 1 mill makes you a millionaire...  maybe 5-10mill...or maybe as low as 2-3 mill..  I could be wrong, but when I think of millionaire, I think of more than 1 million...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millionaire

Quote
A millionaire (originally and sometimes still millionnaire[1]) is an individual whose net worth or wealth is equal to or exceeds one million units of currency.

In general, 5-10 million (or even 2-3 million) is commonly known as "multi-millionaire".

I meant someone who has made a lot of money out of BTC - 1 million bucks or something. Enough significantly change their life.

And, yes, you make a good point - there is a story to be told about those who sold too early.

From its first exchange price at 1,300 to 1USD, bitcoin was a million bagger for somebody!

No, it's someone with a million Satoshi.

1 Bitcoin? Good question actually what do you consider a millionaire. A person with enough btc which converts into 1 million fiat or 1 million Bitcoin itself?

people who became BTC millionaires by accident and so on.

Noone become millionaire by accident. If we exclude the illegitimate ways, even mining for a day or two in 2009 and forgetting about them until today is the right thing to do, not an accident.

On the other hand they is a lot, and I do mean A LOT of stories of people who could have become that and didn't cause stupid for the most part. You should cover those, educationally.

Hello,
 
My first post here.

My name is Dominic Frisby. I am a comedian and author from the UK. I write a column for Moneyweek, host this podcast and made this Debt Bomb video which some of you may have seen - ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXcLVDhS8fM )
 
I'm a long-time anti-fiat money campaigner - and I made this vid on the subject way back when ( http://commoditywatch.podbean.com/ )
 
Anyway I have begun work on a book about Bitcoin ( http://unbound.co.uk/books/bitcoin ) which I am hoping will be the first book by a recognized publisher on the subject. It is being crowd-funded. (and you can fund it with BTC if you want - http://dominicfrisby.com/news/the-future-of-money/pay-with-bitcoin-for-bitcoin-the-future-of-money ).
 
The reason I am posting, is that I am looking for some good Bitcoin millionaire stories - people who became BTC millionaires by accident and so on.
 
I promise full confidentiality, changed names and all the rest of it, but if you have a bitcoin millionaire story - please could you get in touch?
 
Do you have such a story - please let me know here ( http://dominicfrisby.com/archive/send-me-an-email )
 
With thanks
 
DF
