Crowns were worn as evidence of ruler ship:
The great dragon (Satan) had on his heads seven crowns -
Rev 12:3
The beast which came out of the sea had upon his horns ten crowns -
Revelation 13:1
However, both of these have only usurped authority. Jesus Christ himself is the rightful King of Kings and Lords. He has “many crowns” -
Revelation 17:14
They will make war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will overcome them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings—and with him will be his called chosen and faithful followers.”
Revelation 19:16
On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.
Matthew 28:18
Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
Ephesians 1:20-23
20 which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms,
21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.
22 And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church,
23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.
1 Peter 3:22
Who has gone into heaven and is at God's right hand—with angels, authorities and powers in submission to him.
