Thousands of separate addresses, most of those coins still sit in their mined blocks. However it is likely Satoshi has all the addresses in one single wallet so that he could move them all at once if he wanted to. Satoshi's estimated wealth is between 500,000 and 1,000,000 coins.
- Torn 13y ago1,000,000 coins is ~10x the top person in that rich list i.e. 840 million USD going by that page's prices
- josephagoss 13y agoYeah, right now Satoshi is worth at least 100k btc up to 1,000k btc. Some analyses has found that perhaps 2,500k btc are controlled by the same group but that was highly speculative. I would think Satoshi is getting close to becoming the first Bitcoin billionaire.
