People who become wealthy are people who can take advantage of every difficult situation.
As is the case at this time, when the price of Bitcoin decreases, the person will dare to take risks and buy bitcoin in low price rates.
Then he holds for a long time and sells it when the price has increased.
So if you all want to be rich then you have to take risks !! People who don't dare take risks will never get the chance to become rich.

no one can know the richest bitcoin owner because we have no income scale and written records that can serve as guidelines in the bitcoin assets that we have and other people

We can never tell who it is! If I will be rich in using bitcoin of course I will not tell it to the world for privacy and security purposes!

Nobody will come forward to claim himself to be the richest bitcoin user because nobody wants to trape themselves in hackers or scammers it is all about security concerned. So far I know Satoshi Nakamoto is the richest bitcoin user in the world but pal really should we need to care? Actually, it is none of our headaches.

It is really hard to know who owns it for real I mean who is the person behind the wallet's that have a great amount of Bitcoin,
We could see some wallet which have a huge amount of Bitcoin but we couldn't really know who own's the wallet .
Satoshi Nakamoto is one of them but surely we don't have enough proof who is Satoshi Nakamoto in real life .

I know Satoshi is claimed to possess 1.1 million BTC (which would be an insane amount)

But who are the other really large holders and how much do they own? Roger Ver? Gavin Andresen?
I remember someone claiming that Ver owns about 300.000 BTC, is there any place where this is confirmed?

I have checked http://www.bitcoinrichlist.com but they only show adresses and we cant know with certainty which of those are connected.


Are there any confirmed large holders, who openly talk about the amount they possess?
You will never know who is the largest bitcoin holder besides Satoshi, maybe only the closest people who know who is the most bitcoin holder besides Satoshi, and for me that doesn't really matter because the most important thing is how bitcoin can return to its highest price.

It is waste our time when we try to figure out who is the richest Bitcoin user. I don't that person will share any of their experience with you.

No one is so stupid that they want us to call Bitcoin the most, if any, people who are liars. Because when someone is holding Bitcoin a lot they will never tell others because they will be in the reach of the bandits and hackers.

as you know there are some bitcoin addresses with big sums and they stay untouched for a long time. so noone knows are they lost or someone just holding these amounts.

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"
No one is so stupid that they want us to call Bitcoin the most, if any, people who are liars. Because when someone is holding Bitcoin a lot they will never tell others because they will be in the reach of the bandits and hackers.

I'm sure that there are various ways to find out about how much bitcoin people hold; however, as many posters already mentioned, there seems to have been a considerable change in practice, especially compared with the early days of bitcoin, and it would be quite rare for individuals to keep bitcoins in a small number of addresses.  It could also be less and less prudent for exchanges to keep bitcoin in only a few addresses.  So in the end, large holders are likely to embark in a practice of spreading out their bitcoins, and how much they spread it out may depend on a variety of their own personal circumstances, and maybe even some coincidences (which might also contribute to some reluctance to move some of the coins very much once they are already in a seemingly secure location). 

Of course, on the other hand, there seem to be developments in both direction.  One set of development seems to be attempting to connect addresses to one another in order to attempt to figure out possible common ownership, and another development direction seems to be providing more and more tools to be able to allow disconnection or reannonymizing some addresses.

maybe they are still holding back longer and trying to save the bitcoin they have so that bitcoin really becomes very expensive and bitcoin has started to be difficult to obtain and after the expensive price maybe they will sell some existing bitcoin.

The richest bitcoin users cannot be determine because the wallets are very unique and no one knows whose the owner of such wallets with huge number of bitcoin. Since every wallet are not registered no one can identify who are the owners.

We can only see the addresses but can't link any real person to those, but it's interesting to see some BTC-blue-whales.
The richest bitcoin owner is unknown, because it's only an address with bitcoin contents without a name, so whether it's their own, a group or a company also nobody knows. One of the biggest bitcoin owners is twins Cameron Winklevoss and Tyler Winklevoss, his bitcoin has exceeded USD 1 billion.

If i have large amount of bitcoin, i will keep silent and prefer under the radar. Its very risky exposing our identity when we have a large money without good protection. In that website, there is no identity who owner the wallet because its anonymous

How it's possible to know who are the richest bitcoin users? In fact, I think it is quite impossible for us because they themselves don't want to disclose about their status. They hide due to a security issue as we can guess. So we never find out them and we will never know who are the richest bitcoin holders except Satoshi Nakamoto  Wink

I dont bother any more than the fact that owning just 0.28 BTC make you the prized 1 percent of the hodlers.
Let the blockchain do what its do best and you keep on to hold on to your dear life your private keys.

I think the detailed data of who owns bitcoin in the world cannot be known with certainty because transaction turnover also keeps moving without anyone being able to provide data

it is really hard to know who hold a big amount of btc now, because i think they hide their identity for their secured because many bad people can hacked it. but i'm pretty sure he/she is very lucky to have that.
