He holds 140 000 BTC at this point. Nearly 1% of all BTC in circulation at the moment belongs to his company Microstrategy

From what i understand from the reports that were published earlier Michael Saylor holds around 17k BTCitcoin, Tim Draper purchased a whole lot more than him during the Silk road auction, no idea whether he is holding those coins still and Winklevoss Twins have a much bigger bag of 70k BTC, so if holding the most BTCitcoin would make anyone the richest then Tim Draper and the Winklevoss Twins will be the top holders.

Yeah accurate. And for them to be the richest in the world, the market cap of Bitcoin would probably have to be around $20T at least. Which means approximately a $1m/coin BTC. Certainly within the plausible BTC ranges. I think $3-5M is semi bullish and getting to 10m+ starts getting a little loony but possible especially under certain constraints like hyperinflation.

But all that to say that yeah, big BTC players may control a lot of wealth in the future on the global scale.
