The Winklevoss Brothers
Twin brothers and former US rowing team Olympians, popularly known for suing Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, in a claim that he stole the social network idea from them while they were in Harvard together.
The twin brothers got $65 million as part of the settlement from the suit, and they invested a significant chunk of it in Bitcoin early in 2013. Consequently, the explosion of the Crypto market saw them become the world’s first celebrity crypto billionaires.
Now, the brothers are principal shareholders in Crypto exchange Gemini, and both own an estimated 70,000 Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.
