The global count of individuals who have become millionaires through cryptocurrencies has hit a record high of 241,700. According to a report by Henley & Partners, this figure surged by 40% over the past year due to the favorable revaluation of digital assets and their growing popularity. Notably, the group of investors with digital assets exceeding $100 million increased by 38% — reaching 450, while the number of crypto billionaires rose by 29% — to 36.

Analysts believe that public companies and large financial firms are increasingly betting on cryptocurrencies, particularly in the United States, where supportive policies from the administration of President Donald Trump have instilled confidence in Wall Street investors. This has significantly contributed to the rise in market value.
By 2025, the influx of funds into Bitcoin-based exchange-traded funds (ETFs) grew from $37.3 billion to $60.6 billion. Meanwhile, investments in Ethereum-based equivalents skyrocketed fourfold to $13.4 billion. Investment advisory firms and hedge fund managers aggressively acquired most ETH-ETFs in Q2 2025, boosting their investments to $1.35 billion and $688 million, respectively. Brokerage and private investment companies also strengthened their positions to $253 million and $62.2 million, respectively.

The increase in the number of crypto millionaires is also attributed to a significant rise in their numbers among holders of digital gold.

This metric jumped by 70%, reaching 145,100. This surge was made possible by the outperforming dynamics of Bitcoin compared to other coins from July 2024 to June 2025. The number of Bitcoin holders with fortunes exceeding $100 million grew by 63% — to 254, while the number of billionaires grew by 55% — to 17. Philip Bauman, founder of Z22 Technologies, explained the increase in metrics as a recognition of digital gold's status as a 'base currency for wealth accumulation.'

Experts noted Singapore, Hong Kong, the USA, Switzerland, and the UAE as leaders in the cryptocurrency adoption index. This index considers public opinion on these assets, the level of available infrastructure, innovations and technologies, regulatory environment, economic factors, and tax attractiveness. Additionally, initiatives from Costa Rica, El Salvador, Greece, Latvia, Panama, New Zealand, and Uruguay aimed at attracting foreign investors to cryptocurrencies were highlighted.

It is worth mentioning that Ukrainian officials have declared crypto assets worth hundreds of millions of hryvnias. In 2,200 declarations filed last year, crypto assets amounting to 786 million UAH were reported. As previously mentioned, according to OpenDataBot, the most active cryptocurrency declarations in 2024 came from representatives of the National Police of Ukraine, with the most popular cryptocurrencies being Tether (USDT), Bitcoin (BTC, XBT), and Ethereum (ETH).
