Arkham Intelligence estimates Satoshi Nakamoto holds over 1.09 million BTC; a sharp market drop cut their value by billions without any coin movement.
Blockchain analytics firm Arkham Intelligence now attributes roughly 1,096,354 BTC to addresses linked to Satoshi Nakamoto, valuing the stash at about $118 billion after a $4.9 billion decline in one day. The drop mirrors a broader crypto market correction and stems solely from Bitcoin’s price fall, with no sign of movement from the dormant early-mined coins. At Bitcoin’s mid-August peak above $124,000, the holdings were valued near $130 billion, underscoring how volatile headline net worth figures are for large long-unmoved reserves.
