Fact Check
Multiple credible sources from August 2024 (CNBC, Barron's, Money) confirm a massive surge in the number of crypto millionaires over the past year. The evidence suggests the actual number of new millionaires is likely even higher than the 70,000 claimed in the statement. For instance, CNBC reports 'more than 84,000 new crypto millionaires,' and data from Barron's implies that about 86,000 new millionaires were created. As the provided evidence points to a figure greater than 70,000, the statement is a conservative but factually supported claim.
