<center></center> <h2>Apparently, the Facebook-startup-fighters, and Bitcoin/Ethereum Exchange "Gemini.com" owners, are up to their necks in Bitcoin.</h2> After stating that they together own about 1% of Bitcoin, which equates to about 108,000 BTC, or $486,000,000, the two also stated they own a 'material' amount of Ethereum. And just a side note, with Ether moving to PoS, I hear the minimum stake is 1,000 - I'm willing to bet they have quite a few! **Check out the Ethereum 'Rich-List' - I wonder which ones are them?** https://etherscan.io/tokenrichlist I'm really happy for them, albeit envious, as I am absolutely a "collector" of cryptocurrencies, and especially these two coins. Gemini.com has also been on a tear recently, as many users are happy with its security and reliability. It also helps that the interface is gorgeous and modern, unlike many of the sketchy crypto exchanges out there. But, it also helps that the twins were also 'early adopters' of the tech. They embraced it before many people were even aware of it. I think this is something for us to take into consideration in our daily lives. If you find something you love, stick with it. Because in the longrun, there's no telling what that could snowball into.  **Here's a link to their exchange:** https://gemini.com/ Personally, I've used it quite a bit, and I have only had great experiences with it. Some users complain of longer verification times, but that has gotten better over time. This just means more users are trying to get into crypto! Something we should never complain about. What do you think? Do you like these guys? Or are they pretentious Bitcoin bros? Let me know in the comments :) @mikev

Wow that is a stellar amount of crypto. Did they say how they obtained it, such as mining or purchasing it?

right? and I think I recall them talking about mining at one point, but I bet large portion of it was bought. Or if they mined something else, then traded for BTC?
