Who has the highest BTC holdings?

[ZAINmalik75]

Also, countries like El Salvador and practically the U.S. also believe on this asset. El Salvador has been purchasing since 2021 to increase its holdings and is currently standing as the first country to legalize Bitcoin globally.

Not forgetting the creator of Bitcoin Satoshi Nakamoto, who do you think has the highest BTC holdings presently?

Without googling it, I think Satoshi nakamoto have the highest BTC because I read he have more than 1 million BTC but it is possible that big companies like Microstragies and Blackrock can have more BTC than Satoshi Nakamoto. So I am just going to Google it now.

https://www.kraken.com/learn/who-owns-the-most-bitcoin This site has the list of highest BTC holders and I am surprised to see Saylor is on fourth place, and still he is more famous from the second and third number. He shows himself to be the biggest BTC enthusiast but what if he sells all of his holdings? I guess things can be like Mantra but a little less.

We obviously know that Micheal Saylor is one of the best bitcoin owner in cryptocurrency world. I am also believe that taken step of investment in bitcoin is correct decision for Micheal Saylor. So if we want to invest in bitcoin, i think that in future we must be earn best profit from here.

Now MicroStrategy has 528,185 BTC that they hold and it is growing. Being the company that has the most BTC at the moment and of course it is very extraordinary because behind it all there is Michael Saylor as CEO who makes this company successful as the most Bitcoin Holders.

MicroStrategy has been aggressively accumulating Bitcoin by leveraging cash reserves and debt financing to acquire cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and several other cryptocurrencies or Altcoins. Until early 2025, MicroStrategy will be the largest bitcoin owner of 528,185 BTC and this will continue to grow.

Perhaps the most ownership is institutions compared to individuals holding BTC, because it will not be as much as those held by institutions.
I don't know which has the most, is it Saylor or the US government?
Maybe I'll look for data on this and see who has the most holdings at the moment.

With the recent developments in MicroStrategy’s decision to reinvest in Bitcoin, the company has found itself in a rather rare position among the global corporations. Since Michael Saylor took power over the company, not only has it continued to exist in the business environment but also contributes to a new storey about shifts in value and digitised assets. To acquire large quantities of BTC using corporate funds should not be seen as a regular business practise, and when done repeatedly, the consequences are worldwide coverage. The total number of 528,185 BTC portrays their approach rightly and as of early 2025, none of the companies has even approached its mark. This choice proves the willingness to associate the company with a value that is still emerging and that it is necessary to be ready for the fluctuations associated with the crypto assets.

It is a strategy that really gives MicroStrategy companies good profits apart from the advantages of the Services and products they market.
This is a backup business that makes them number one as a Bitcoin holding company and the move made by Michael Saylor proves that MicroStrategy is poised to become the most bitcoin holder in the future and make the company more profitable as ATH continues to happen, this is the best future investment.

Such a revolutionary move is also like the State of El Salvador making Bitcoin a real adoption, and in the future MicroStrategy may be the originator of a company that continues to support Bitcoin and derives huge profits from Bitcoin.

I shared the link just 2 post ago and it gives surprising data because I also thought Saylor will have the most BTC after Satoshi but I was wrong. Because Satoshi have more than 1 million BTC which we all know and after that comes 2 other entities to have more BTC than saylor.

On the 4th number is saylor although even institutions don't have more BTC than Satoshi, if combined then yes otherwise not a single institution have more BTC. The creator of BTC have the highest BTC holdings.

Since the adoption of Bitcoin (Decentralized Finance) by big companies round the world, it is noticed that these companies has been purchasing more and more Bitcoin to increase their Holdings and stay at the top.

One of the most popular is Microstrategy (Michael Saylor) who have a strong belief on this asset, undermining the market price of this asset he acquires more to boost his holdings. We also see the likes of BlackRock, Metaplanet, GameStop etc who also have a positive stand on this asset.

Also, countries like El Salvador and practically the U.S. also believe on this asset. El Salvador has been purchasing since 2021 to increase its holdings and is currently standing as the first country to legalize Bitcoin globally.

      -      The others you mentioned are true, like Blackrock, Gamestop, El Salvador, and the US because of bitcoin reserves and of course Michael Saylor. As far as I know, even China has bitcoin holdings that they just aren't transparent about.

But as far as I know, according to my research, it seems like China has an estimated holdings of around 194,000 BTC at the time of 2020, so it's likely that by 2025 it could be more than 200k or more. This is just my guess.

America and China has the highest holdings if I am not wrong when it comes to countries with possession of Bitcoin though those coins were consfiscated from illegal activities like the Silk Road but when it comes to companies I think Microstrategy since they are vocal about their investments since Michael Saylor was behind all that.

Well everyone has their opinion on this matter, but foe me I don't think anyone can you win bitcoin more than Satoshi Nakamoto. Though nobody new how many is with him and all those people you have mentioned have not gotten up to 1 million bitcoin but as of the early time after the creation of bitcoin Satoshi Nakamoto got above 1.1 million bitcoin and I strongly believed he is still investing in bitcoin because he knows the future of bitcoin more than everyone.

They are some countries that investing in bitcoin secretly and they have a good number of bitcoin. But it will not up to the amount Satoshi Nakamoto hold.

China does seem to be hiding bitcoin ownership, even though the Chinese government has banned bitcoin, but the data shows Chinese citizens as the second largest bitcoin owners. We don't know if the Chinese government also has a large amount of bitcoin and is hiding it.
So, it would be better if every country has bitcoin, because bitcoin can hedge well.

By the current record of MicroStrategy and the US government Bitcoin holdings, I think that MicroStrategy is holding more Btc than the US. It is currently 528,185 BTC for Microstrategy and about 250,000 Btc for the US government.  This is through my search, I may be wrong.
Moreover, it look like companies are holding more Btc this days than individuals, though there is no accurate statistics for Btc holdings as far as i know.

At number one there is still Satoshi Nakamoto, whose existence is still doubtful, so many assume that the wallet owned by Satoshi Nakamoto is no longer used..but that does not rule out the possibility that in the future, the wallet will be active again and make transactions of almost 1 million BTC, which will certainly surprise the public...

then for the Micro Strategy asset, it is clearly the largest according to my research too...of the top 5 companies holding Bitcoin, the gap between MSTR and the second rank occupant, namely MARA, is very far... I only see MSTR who is very intent on continuing to accumulate Bitcoin...

Everything is mixed up in your head - who says the US believes in BTC? Some people in that country only believe that they can make a profit with the help of BTC, they are not interested in anything else.

El Salvador has some 6000+ BTC in its possession, a trifle when converted into fiat currency considering that it is a few hundred million $, and at the same time they have debts that they settle with the help of the IMF, which in return for these "services" blackmails them into removing BTC as legal tender, a really great success, right?

As for global legalization, BTC is legal in most countries in the world, except for those ruled by dictators and lunatics, but in those countries there are much bigger problems than BTC being banned.

Not forgetting the creator of Bitcoin Satoshi Nakamoto, who do you think has the highest BTC holdings presently?

I honestly don't care who has how many BTC - that's a matter that is in the domain of each individual's privacy. It's fascinating how many people seek privacy and at the same time raise questions about other people's privacy.
