I just wonder: are Early Adopters rich?
We know AA, author of "Mastering Bitcoin" was once attacked because he did not made any fortune having BTC from early years, then people donated some BTC and he collected around 100BTC.
Hal F's wife sued "I am Satoshi guy" and they were talking about $ 3-digit mln, so they are not kind of people who wait every month for their wage.
What about others? Bitcoin Core developers? Forum admins or well-known old users? Are they crazy rich living in their own castles or did they lost their coins, sold for $10 because of mortgage loan or student's debt and today they must work 7-15 every day?
I advise you to go and thread this thread,
Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion, you can find a lot of early adopter there, and who knows, maybe you can get a hint if ever someone is rich or not.
But if you go to the basics, we just know the addresses and not the name behind it, again, and we heard like early adopters selling when the price is like 2 digits, and then maybe still holding up to this day, so nobody knows.
