Over the past year, the number of Bitcoin millionaires has increased by approximately 70,000, a direct result of the more than 70% increase in the value of the leading cryptocurrency. According to CNBC, approximately 40% of new digital wealth holders live in the United States, and 30% live in Asia. CNBC analyst Sarah Lane noted that this dynamic indicates the increasingly important role of crypto assets in the global economy.
Hennessy Funds portfolio manager Jack McIntyre emphasized that the rapid growth of Bitcoin wealth is transforming the financial landscape: "Cryptocurrencies are no longer something exotic and are gradually becoming part of traditional investment strategies. This is a step away from traditional fiat savings and toward a new financial future."
CNBC host Shepard Smith recalled that just five years ago, the prospect of mass crypto millionaires seemed like science fiction, but now it's a reality, attracting millions of new investors to the industry.
The program's experts agreed that success in the cryptocurrency market requires caution and constant analysis. Sarah Lane warned: "Those who became millionaires yesterday could lose everything tomorrow. The cryptocurrency market is extremely volatile and must be approached with an understanding of the risks."
According to research by Henley & Partners, by mid-2025, the number of digital asset holders with a net worth over $1 million will reach 241,700. This is a 40% increase from the previous year. British analysts noted that this growth is one of the fastest in the history of the crypto industry.
Meanwhile, Robert Kiyosaki, author of "Rich Dad, Poor Dad," once again drew attention to the differences in approaches to money between rich and poor investors. According to him, "the poor watch the price of Bitcoin, while the rich watch the number of coins they hold." This statement emphasizes a strategic approach to accumulating digital assets, as opposed to short-term speculation.
Thus, the rapid growth of Bitcoin millionaires reflects not only the success of the cryptocurrency market but also a shift in global investment thinking. Cryptoassets are becoming more than just a speculative tool, but part of a long-term strategy for those who see the future of finance as digital.
