From prominent CEOs to to Big Daddy himself, these are the five richest people in crypto.
5. Jed McCaleb
These days McCaleb is mostly keeping busy with his space venture, Vast, and working with Elon Musk to take us to the moon and Mars.
However, McCaleb made a fortune as the main developer for Stellar, as in Stellar Lumens (XLM).
He’s worth $2.3 billion
4. Chris Larsen
Chris Larsen is the co-founder of Ripple Labs, the company behind Ripple (XRP).
This is one of his many interests, but it is certainly a high-paying one.
Larsen is worth $2.9 billion
3. Brian Armstrong
Probably the first name on the list that most people might be familiar with, Brian Armstrong is the CEO of Coinbase.
Coinbase is unique for two reasons.
First, it is more or less regulated in the US, and second, it is the only crypto exchange that’s also a public company.
So far so good, at least for Armstrong, who’s worth $6.5 billion.
2. Changpeng Zhao
His net worth might take a hit after the much talked about settlement with the DOJ, but the Changpeng Zhao (CZ) is still one of the richest people in crypto, with a net worth of $15 billion.
Everyone’s trying to figure out what CZ is going to do next, after leaving Binance, and we’ll find out soon enough.
1. Satoshi Nakamoto
The pseudonymous founder of Bitcoin is the world’s richest crypto person.
Satoshi Nakamoto owns at least 1.1 million BTC, worth around $46 billion at the time of writing.
