Title: How many BTC do you have? Poll on adoption rate
Post by: fabianhjr on June 08, 2011, 03:15:03 PM
The objective is to determine the adoption rate. I want to get the approximate number of current users. For this I will get the average of BTC per person. Your submission is anonymous. Please be honest.

Everyone is welcomed to post the calculations after they voted.

So far the average is 29K per user. I would really appreciate help, for science.

You have reason, I will reset the poll.

Edit: Also, you are also welcomed to give your estimates :)

Ok, using the averake method we are right now looking at 12K per user
Getting the sqrt of the sum of the votes gets me about 448, which is more feasible. Dunno if I am using the power law correctly, can anyone help with this statics?

Uhm, if you have <5, you also have <10, <20, <200, etc...

Maybe you need a range instead?

Please, it is quite reasonable. In our imperfect world I hope you have the capacity to decide which is the most appropriate answer.

Maybe I had too much hope.
