Topic: Jeff Garzik's Bitcoin Balance Revealed - page 4. (Read 7018 times)
It's gotta be 348,000 btc, because 348btc is chump change amongst the big names, that's nothing to brag about. For being a core developer, those days you can get hundreds to thousands of btcs per day back when only a handful of people were mining/testing the technology. Why do you think pizza was 10,000 btc back then?
Maybe it means he has converted most his coins into Fiat in preparation of a significant price drop he believes is coming, so he can get more coins during the next dip.
Wouldnt exactly call 348 bitcoins small potatoes! Way to go Jeff! In time maybe he'll be able to afford putting his very own custom satellites up in orbit.
Considering that Jesus Christ was sold at a price of 30 peices of silver, Jeff have a much better standing than Jesus 
Architectures made the world and bankers bought it all, hope that bitcoin will change this

348 coins could still end up being worth millions in time
Still not very much considering who he is, if true that is

Thats really surprising since he got one of the first Avalon units... mine have mined around that and I got them later than he did.
Hope he likes chip simulators like ...

Tell him to go store it at just-dice or something he has a way to go to 348 K Bitcoins but I like round numbers should go for 2 more haha
That said he still has a lot more than me less than I expected but 348*600 = 208,000
Enough to purchase a small house at least.
How come there are people who use Bitcoin but don't know who Jeff Garzik is? Is it because they don't appreciate the technology part of it and only care about the user and business aspects of it? I guess he's been pretty low key on the forums lately, but his name is still all over the source code.
The culture is shifting and the history is being forgotten. I applaud Jeff for being very transparent regarding his holdings and reminding people that it takes real work by regular people to make Bitcoin grow into its potential.
check the source on github , you will see he has helped bitcion get where it is now
also i agree with the others , this must be his spare change wallet
i would have guessed he holds a few hundred thou

Eh. Is he really that special? Can't be if I've never heard of him.

he is just saying 348 it really is 348,000 I know.
No he's not. He really means 2 less than 350...

Jeff is dispelling the myth that everyone involved with Bitcoin development and all early miners are rich. He's not. I am an early miner (ie, laptop era mid 2010) and I'm basically of zero net worth (I have about as much bitcoins as I have med school loan debt). Not everyone who helped build the ecosystem was doing it just to get rich.
I mined in the naive hope that the project would succeed and maybe someday someone who can't open a bank account can keep savings safe without having to physically defend them. I've been there. It sucks (I'm not exactly well built). Was I rewarded handsomely for it? Yes. Am I rich? No.

Jeff Garzik recently twitted: "As such, I dare to do what few if any others do: My #bitcoin balance is 348.006 BTC."

Thats probably his mac computers balance, lol. But, seriously, I bet a lot of big time early adopters sold the majority over the last couple years, I know that I've sold enough to make myself cry when I think about it. Still, there are hundreds, if not thousands of bitcoiners that did accumulate and held thru all the peaks and valleys.

That's how much I have! So long as I stop counting at 348.
Surprisingly small amount.
If he holds for a while they may be worth a lot more however.
Definitely anyone with this kind of BTC is really blessed.
