Crypto Rich List Reveals Bitcoin's Dominance Among Ultra-Wealthy

The ultra-wealthy are increasingly turning to cryptocurrency as a store of value, according to Henley & Partners' Crypto Wealth Report 2026. Released on September 8, 2026, the report shows that 290 individuals worldwide have over $100 million in crypto holdings.

Bitcoin is driving this trend, with 151 of these mega-holders carrying their wealth solely in Bitcoin. The global crypto market has a total capitalization of $2.6 trillion, with Bitcoin accounting for around $1.6 trillion of that.

The report notes that geography plays a significant role in crypto wealth planning. Singapore tops the Crypto Adoption Index for the fourth consecutive year, followed by the UAE, Hong Kong, the US, and Switzerland.
