Crypto Millionaires Reach 241,700 in 2025
The number of crypto millionaires rose to 241,700 by June 2025, according to the Crypto Wealth Report 2025. The report was published by Henley & Partners in partnership with New World Wealth.
This figure is 40% higher than last year. Total crypto wealth reached $3.3 trillion, a 45% increase from 2024. Bitcoin leads wealth creation, with Bitcoin millionaires growing 70% to 145,100 holders. Out of 36 global crypto billionaires, 17 made most of their fortune from Bitcoin.
The report also states that 450 people now hold over $100 million in crypto, up 38% from last year. This growth is described as a “historic” wealth boom, driven by institutional interest and wider global adoption.
Currently, about 590 million people own cryptocurrency worldwide. This is roughly 7.4% of the global population. Among them, 295 million hold Bitcoin. However, crypto millionaires make up only 0.4% of the world’s 60 million millionaires, according to UBS.
Growing Real-World Use of Crypto
Dominic Volek, head of private clients at Henley & Partners, said crypto wealth is now linked to global mobility and investment choices. He shared this insight on X (formerly Twitter).
Volek explained, “Our data-driven evaluation of crypto-friendly investment migration programs helps clients build diversified portfolios. These include alternative residence and citizenship options, offering tax efficiency, asset protection, and mobility.”
Governments are adapting to borderless crypto wealth. Countries like St. Kitts & Nevis, Panama, and the UAE now accept crypto payments for real estate tied to citizenship or residency programs.
“These programs only started accepting crypto in late 2023 and 2024,” Volek said. “There is pent-up demand now finding an outlet.” Paying with crypto is faster and can help investors avoid taxes and fees from converting digital assets to fiat currency.
Regulation and the Future of Crypto Wealth
Regulators remain concerned about market volatility and money laundering risks. However, Volek argues blockchain often provides clearer money trails than traditional banking.
The report ranks the most crypto-friendly countries by regulation, taxation, infrastructure, and innovation. Singapore, Hong Kong, and the United States top the list. The UAE and Monaco attract investors with zero taxes on crypto trading and income.
