As far as I understand the big Bitcoin owner does not want to be famous. They always hide and even make purchases anonymously, because what then is the meaning of the advantages of crypto currency. And at the same time, bitcoins are not yet everywhere real, so everyone keeps information about their possession in secret.

Token holders don't count. Flo Rida doesn't give a sh*t about bitcoin...his agent or someone just said "do this to get exposure". Much like owning private keys, if the celebrity doesn't own a wallet, they're not even close to being a bitcoin owner.

I haven't heard of ANY celebrities talk of bitcoin.

And on the non-celebrity list, Sean Spicer (Trump's Press Parrot, err Secretary) posted his bitcoin address on twitter back in January, then he deleted. Some people think he may have been verifying his identity with the post.

EDIT: There's speculation that Spicey didn't actually post the bitcoin address, but that someone else did...for some unknown reason. Other side of story  >>  https://medium.com/@jimmysong/no-sean-spicer-didnt-make-some-secret-bitcoin-transaction-94b4851844b5

The famous Russian Model ` Doctor Mike ` who lives in new york made a vlog on youtube that he is holding some bitcoin.

yes celebrity is carring about bitcoin too.

I understand your point but...

Unlike Playboy, bitcoin is not trying to sell something tangible. It is a new kind of service and it was designed to allow users to remain anonymous. Celebrities boastng with bitcoins are actually in total contradiction with bitcoin principles.

The community is growing, bit after bit. We are developping new business models, more services.. We don't have to get ad the way large companies do. Bitcoin is an opportunity, not a billable-advertisable thing!  

If you had hundreds of millions of dollars, would you want your community to know about it? Most likely not. Especially if it's all the rave now (whatever you made your money from) as it would lure all types of criminals in. It's best to keep it private, plus that's the whole point of the blockchain. Safe, secure and pseudonymous.

There are indeed celebrities who own bitcoins such as Lilly Allen, Mel B, and Drew Carey, among many others. As for that “Marilyn Monroe” of bitcoin, attaining that would be not so viable due to the anonymity that users want.

Most of them are hiding their identity in order for them to excuse in taxes. We all know that bitcoin is decentralized and it is good to store bitcoin because no one will ask and enter to your asset.

I understand your topic & i never heard about celebrity bitcoin owners. But personally i believe that they should involve and promote this. If so it will be more important to bitcoin future.
