Odaily Planet Daily News According to a new report, the number of global cryptocurrency millionaires has surged 95% in the past year as Bitcoin ETFs and other crypto assets climbed. According to a report by New World Wealth and Henley & Partners, 172,300 individuals worldwide currently hold more than $1 million in crypto assets, a significant increase from 88,200 last year. The number of pure-player Bitcoin millionaires more than doubled to 85,400. The report shows that there are currently 325 crypto-billionaires (holding $100 million or more in crypto assets), and 28 crypto billionaires. The surge reflects the rapid growth of the Bitcoin ETF, which has surpassed $50 billion in assets since its launch in January and triggered a wave of institutional participation. Bitcoin prices have risen 45% this year to about $64,000. As other cryptocurrencies rise in value, the market capitalization of crypto assets has grown to $2.3 trillion, up from $1.2 trillion last summer. (CNBC)
