15,000 new Bitcoin millionaires in Trump’s first 6 months 
Cryptocurrency Jul 21, 2025 Share
The number of Bitcoin (BTC) millionaires has surged in the first half-year of Donald Trump’s second term as President, according to new data from Finbold Research.
Between January 20 and July 20, 2025, a total of 15,841 new Bitcoin wallet addresses reached millionaire status, bringing the overall count to 192,205, representing a 9% increase in just six months, with an average of 88 new millionaire addresses added every day.
Finbold Research analyzed the data using figures retrieved from BitInfoCharts, with historical snapshots verified through the Wayback Machine. The findings show a consistent increase across all tiers of high-value addresses, but the sharpest growth came among those holding over 10 million dollars worth of Bitcoin. This top bracket grew by more than 16% over the period, indicating that institutional players and early adopters are doubling down on their positions.
This upward trend in high-value BTC holdings comes amid a broader wave of optimism in the crypto sector. On November 6, 2024, the day after Trump secured re-election, there were 132,842 Bitcoin millionaire addresses. The subsequent growth of more than 59,000 addresses in less than nine months highlights a dramatic rise in both market activity and investor confidence.
Bitcoin is soaring under the pro-crypto presidency
One of the key drivers behind this surge is the shifting regulatory environment in the United States. In a landmark move earlier this week, the House of Representatives passed the country’s first major piece of cryptocurrency legislation. The bill, officially named the GENIUS Act, was signed into law by President Trump on July 18 in a ceremony at the White House. The legislation is seen as a turning point for the digital asset space, offering long-awaited clarity on taxation, stablecoin issuance, and institutional custody rules.
Markets responded swiftly. In the days following the vote, the total market capitalization of cryptocurrencies soared to a record-breaking 4 trillion dollars. This momentum appears to be reflected in Bitcoin’s price action as well.
The combination of rising prices, increasing wallet counts, and supportive policy signals a new phase for the crypto market in the United States. With President Trump vowing to turn the country into the global hub for digital assets, and regulatory clarity finally taking shape, Bitcoin millionaires may soon become a much more common phenomenon.
