This chart may reflect the chaos and volatility of the virtual currency world.
Forbes posted on LinkedIn explaining why this list is based: holding estimates of virtual currency amounts (some providing evidence), after-tax profits on the trading of assets and encrypted shares, The data will be locked on January 19, 2018.
It is inevitable that there will be omissions in admitting this list, and the estimates on the list may be quite different from their actual values. But the same is true when we first released Forbes magazine in its list of the 400 richest Americans in 1982.
The journey of thousands of miles begins with a single step, and in one criticism and negative tone, the wealth list and the richest man list have grown countercurrently, not only for Forbes but also for other similar major charts.

The key, Ryan said, is that cryptographers like Rubin admit that it's important to have such a leaderboard.
