Global crypto wealth is booming, with the number of cryptocurrency millionaires soaring 40% to 241,700 over the past year, according to Henley & Partners’ latest Crypto Wealth Report. Bitcoin was the standout, driving much of the growth with a 70% jump in BTC millionaires to 145,100, while the count of Bitcoin billionaires climbed to 17. The report notes that institutional adoption and heavy inflows into U.S.-based spot Bitcoin and Ether ETFs played a central role in fueling this surge.
The wider market reflected the same momentum, as total crypto valuations crossed $3.3 trillion by mid-2025. Ultra-wealthy Bitcoin holders, including centimillionaires with over $100 million, surged 63% to 254. Advisory firms, hedge funds, and private equity players also deepened exposure, with spot ETH ETF inflows quadrupling to $13.4 billion this year alone.
Crypto adoption hubs continue to shift, with the U.S., Singapore, and Hong Kong leading the way, alongside Switzerland and the UAE. Smaller nations like El Salvador and Uruguay are also gaining traction by pushing favorable policies for digital asset investors.
