Cryptocurrency trading platforms still occupy the highest positions in the Bitcoin wealth list. Binance owns a vast cold wallet of approximately 248,600 BTC, which represents more than 1.25% of the currently existing Bitcoins. Other giants such as Robinhood and Bitfinex are also featured on the list, having holdings of about 140,600 BTC and 130,010 BTC, respectively.
Exchange-based wallets are mostly custodial reserves of user assets and offer liquidity. From the blockchain data analysis by Glassnode and BitInfoCharts, transactions related to such wallets are low, which evidences the long-term reserve role.
Other prominent wallets are another Binance cold wallet, having 115,000 BTC, and a Bitfinex hack recovery wallet belonging to the governments, with 94,600 BTC. Such huge accounts are indicators of how exchanges are significant in the storage and transfer of Bitcoins.
There is also increased corporate interest in Bitcoin. Strategy, previously called MicroStrategy, currently has around 597,325 BTC. The company invested more than 42.4 billion, and the average cost of its BTC acquisition is 70,982 dollars. Strategy is the most prominent publicly traded owner of Bitcoin, with more than 92% of its treasury invested in the digital currency.
Other publicly held companies, such as Tesla, Block, and GameStop, have also held impressive reserves. The total amount of BTC held by public companies (in 2025) is an estimated 693,000. ETFs have also opened Bitcoin access to more people. Grayscale Trust holds 292,000 BTC, whereas BlackRock IBIT has approximately 274,000 BTC. These funds give investors institutional and retail exposure to BTC under regulation.

At the same time, the higher wallets are highly centralised, although the middle wallets are gradually increasing. Addresses containing 100-1,000 BTC currently control 4.76 million BTC as compared to 3.9 million BTC last year.
Such a trend shows a widening implementation with funds, institutions, and high-net-worth people. Bitcoin's ownership base is becoming diverse as more people join the ecosystem, compromising large-scale concentration with slow decentralisation.
