I have been making an analysis about how people is getting real rich thanks to the increse of BTC and it is amazing to think that people are getting real rich, lets hope and this will continue so the people that holds very little BTC also gets rich.
This is the analisis I made:
On February 1st 2015 you will need 4,219 BTC to have 1 million USD, now that is worth: 10,125,600 usd
On Febraury 1st 2016 you will need 2,681 BTC to have 1 million USD, now that is worth: 6,434,400 usd
On February 1st 2017 you will need 992 BTC to have 1 million USD, now that is worth: 2,380,800 usd
Today you need 404 BTC to have 1 million USD ( the person who has now 404 BTC it is millionaire, and in Feb 2015 just had with the same 404 BTC 95,757 USD
That is amazing.
I wonder what are the new rich people doing right know? have they realised that they are rich yet.

Estimated condition at $ 2500 / btc: $ 3.75 billion
Twins Winklewos gained fame when they sued Mark Zuckerberg for allegedly stolen the idea of Facebook Inc. (NYSE: FB). After the trial, according to Winklewos agreement, $ 65 million was received. In 2013, they used part of their payments under the settlement agreement for the purchase of 1.5 million btc. Since then, these investments, estimated at $ 11 million, have grown by more than 31,000%. However, the Winklewos twins are not just bitcoins investors. They also launched one of the leading bitmoins of the Gemini stock exchanges and developed a proposal for a stock exchange investment fund (Winklevoss Bitcoin Trust), which was rejected by the US SEC in March.
Satoshi Nakamoto
Approximate number of bitcoins: 1 million.
Approximate condition at $ 2500 / btc: $ 2.5 billion.
It is believed that the mysterious creator of bitcoin controls about 1 million btc, most of which were extracted in the earliest days of the crypto currency, when only a few programmers knew that it exists. Then the reward for the block was 50 bitcoins, and the complexity of the mining was so low that even with the help of an average laptop it was possible to be engaged in mining. It is not known whether the name "Nakamoto" is an alias for one person or a group of people, and where he / she / they can be at the moment. But the bitcoins that belong to Nakamoto have never been spent or transferred.
Other names may be less familiar ...
Roger Vere
Approximate number of bitcoins: 0.3 million.
Estimated condition at $ 2500 / btc: $ 750 million.
Ver is one of the first supporters of bitcoin, even so much that he is known as the "Bitcoin Jesus". Back in 2011, when btc was trading for about $ 10, he boldly predicted that the digital currency would surpass all other asset classes over the next two years 100-fold. At the end of 2013, bitcoin rose in price from $ 100 to $ 1200 for less than four months, and the words of Roger Vera proved to be true. At its peak in 2013, bitcoin outperformed other assets 300 times. Ver also invested in many startups based on bitcoin at that time. Today he is the general director of Bitcoin.com, a popular site aimed at acquainting people with crypto currency bitcoin.

BitInstant helped customers get bitcoins in 700,000 stores, including Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (NYSE: WMT). But BitInstant did not comply with anti-money laundering laws, and Schrem was sentenced to two years in prison in 2014 for sending money to the black Internet market Silk Road, which allowed customers to pay drugs in bitcoins. BitInstant was closed. Today, Schrem works as the head of the business development and startup community of Jaxx, operating with purses to exchange one digital currency for another.
