Which exchange address is closest to Satoshi’s mining era?

Answered from checked-in data · published 2026-09-23 · substantively modified 2026-10-02 · Markdown · All answers as JSON

Among the exchange addresses in the curated catalog, Kraken and QuadrigaCX (defunct) are the closest at 3 degrees; OKX (formerly OKEx) is at 4. These are the documented addresses only: an exchange controls many addresses, and the catalog scores one published record per dossier.

The comparison unit is a documented record

The table compares the exchange records included in this catalogue. It does not search every address an exchange has ever used, combine an exchange’s entire customer base, or measure the quality of the exchange.

A tie means the included records have the same hop count. Follow the dossier links to see which addresses and evidence each record covers before extending the comparison to a business or a person.

What this answer does not claim

Catalogue coverage is selective. A lower degree is not evidence of solvency, safety, endorsement by Satoshi, or a personal relationship. Adding a documented record can change the table without changing the degree definition.

These explanations were revised with AI assistance. Figures are computed from the stated data release; substantive content and SEO changes go through a separate source review. No named human or external expert review is implied.
