The person behind the Bitcoin, the so-called Satoshi Nakamoto, gets the tips for the last couple of years, or since the genesis block blockchain was created.

Is Satoshi the richest man in the world?
Satoshi is the original and longest Bitcoin holder, and with the address allegedly owned by the vast majority of Bitcoins, he has never moved. It is often discussed how much Satoshi is actually rich, and is currently at the same level as Bil Gates and similar billionaires. The recent Bitcoin jump should be among the 50 richest people. But regardless of the fact that the man behind this fascinating concept possesses a large number of Bitcoins, his users never cease to send any tips.

The number of Bitcoins owned by its creator is around 1 148 800, according to a detailed analysis that was made in 2013. Evidence shows that the first 36,000 blocks were mined from one computer, and that could not have been anyone else, but Satoshi. At that time the prize per block was 50 Bitcoins, and of those 1 814 400 Bitcoins, 63% was never consumed.
According to the current price of Bitcoin, which amounts to about $ 13,500, the estimate is that Satoshi's current wealth is about $ 16 billion. You should also not forget that for those bitcoins after the war, Satoshi received Bitcoin Cash worth 3.4 billion US dollars, and Bitcoin Gold worth $ 340 million.
According to all this, the wealth of Satoshi is estimated at at least $ 20 billion. When placed on Forbes' list of the richest people, Satoshi would be in 37 positions.
If Bitcoin reaches $ 60,000 then Satoshi will overtake Bil Gates and become the richest man in the world.
What to conclude after these data is the fact that the last thing Satoshi needs now is Bitcoin, but people from all parts of the world have been sending tips for years as a sign of gratitude.
For every couple of days someone sends a punctuation message and sends it to the address associated with the genesis block, when the first 50 Bitcoins came to Satoshi's address: 1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7Divf

50 Bitcoins are still at that address and have never moved but now the address contains a lot more Bitcoin because 1143 transactions with tips in the last 9 years have been made, and today that address contains more than 66 Bitcoins.
Although sending Bitcoin to an unused address sounds unmanageable, this is how many people want to show how grateful they are to Satoshi, and in some way say thank you for making all this happen.
