I wonder who Satoshi is and how much he's worth now. Not many people can put on their CV that they created a new currency.

- gwern 13y agoThe upper bound on how many coins he's mined is roughly 1 million (the best estimates I'm aware of come from https://bitslog.wordpress.com https://bitslog.wordpress.com ). So you can just interpret the current exchange rate of X as X million. On http://bitcoincharts.com/markets/currency/USD.html http://bitcoincharts.com/markets/currency/USD.html I see Bitstamp at $169 right now (MtGox, as pointed out here, is not a useful benchmark anymore), so that's $169m in bitcoins. (modulo all the usual reasons it's less than $169m: the estimate should be an upper bound and so the real amount lower, he may have lost his bitcoins, you can't cash out that much without crashing the price, he'd have to pay taxes on such an enormous amount, etc etc)
