AN OPINION: ENGINEER OTEGBEYE: GOODNIGHT TO A WORTHY LEADER

It could not have been better attended given the treatment meted to the deceased in the last few years. The late Engineer Otegbeye was not known to me personally; we had no interaction, communication or dialogue of any kind, direct or indirect.

OWNERS OF MOST BITCOIN IN THE WORLD

  Who Owns the Most Bitcoin in the World? Who tops out the Bitcoin rich list? Who has hodled more than any other? Today, over 100 million people own Bitcoin, the world's first cryptocurrency. However, while crypto ownership is widespread, it is far from evenly distributed. In fact, less than 1% of Bitcoin owners harbor almost a third of the current supply. But, who are these Bitcoin billionaires, and how much do they own? 1. Satoshi Nakamoto Satoshi Nakamoto is a little different from everyone else on this list, in that no one actually knows who they are. Instead, this is the name used for the anonymous individual (or individuals) who created Bitcoin and was responsible for kick-starting crypto and hugely influencing the world today. Many people have claimed to be the true founder of Bitcoin, including Craig Wright, who won a huge lawsuit after being accused of cheating an old mining companion out of billions in crypto. But the jury never reached a verdict on whether he was indeed
