Wow... Imagine having more than 100K amount of bitcoin.
If I had this much I would go somewhere and enjoy for the rest of my life.
because we all know what will happen in the bitcoin halving. Even in my dreams I can't imagine it it  Grin
I remember that there's a meme about the quantity of bitcoin that a person holds.

If it's above a thousands, you are a whale and when we have less than 0.1BTC, we were called a shrimp.

I think you already have the answer for your question and it's not a single person that owns the most but it's a company, an exchange.

exchanges are top of the bitcoin richlist
bitfinex seems to have alot

and yes its their private keys that the coins are on not customers. so while customers play with mysql database balance bitfinex holds the actual coins
(not your key not your coin)

After some digging I must say That I'm agree with this guy
107,848 BTC worth $? million was transferred for a fee of about $194! The transaction was traced back to the Luxembourg-based crypto exchange company Bitstamp. The exchange was apparently moving the funds to a cold storage wallet held by the institutional crypto custody company Xapo.
Blockchain Link:
https://www.blockchain.com/btc/tx/1e218ab4df3ab57135b947ec61fcb6b8e3b04890c9a24c87c4d3481aaecef58d (https://www.blockchain.com/btc/tx/1e218ab4df3ab57135b947ec61fcb6b8e3b04890c9a24c87c4d3481aaecef58d)

Or here are some bitcoin wallets somehow related to coinbase:
4,935 BTC ~ 38 Millions
https://btc.com/3J9SZcpMCgK16HV73UEes1qiTDtsrfzDUx
219,867 BTC ~ 1.7 Billions
https://btc.com/37k5U5xQJkojFHkHVgrY7Dq7xtJJNSqVid

Tooke a bit time to collect all these info Cheesy
But yeah worth of sharing it

So, one good way to see the rich list is to sort the exchanges by liquidity:

Liquidity is not the only indicator of this. We all know how exchanges use liquidity to their advantage, artificially inflating it. And I'm sure almost every one of these exchanges does this.

It's quite a risky rich list to be honest, unless they have ways of compensating coin owners if something unpleasant happens.
A healthy rich list in my opinion would be decentralized rich list. A wealth whale ought to split or have his coin on many addresses. I guess if this can be done easily and automatically, most whales will do it and we won't have much addresses with expensive coins.

Greetings people,
These day I always have the question: With this price of bitcoins who own most of the share? Who is the richest person in the market? (Don't consider satushi)
You can also link your wallet to show the balance
