Title: Help me estimate bitcoins total merchant/market net worth Post by: chsados on August 06, 2013, 12:45:36 AM I am trying to collect as much data as possible to get a rough idea how much money is being spent in bitcoins market place. I am intersted in doing this as a result of many claims that Silk Road is the "driving marketplace of bitcoin" - which I don't think is particularly true. If you have any links, or information about the below companies please share, I will keep it updated as more information comes in. If you have any other suggestions on other bitcoin related merchants let me know.
BitPay ~$5 million (http://bitcoinmagazine.com/bitpay-processes-5-million-in-march-eclipses-silk-road/)/month CoinBase ~15 million (http://blog.coinbase.com/post/49782323057/coinbase-now-processing-15m-per-month-in-bitcoin-buys)/month *February buy and sales total | *email (https://i.imgur.com/8fmDNLJ.png) BitcoinStore Lifetime sales: $662,993 | $662,993/7(?) months = $94,713/month BitMit ? CoinGig ~$5,000 (http://url=https://i.imgur.com/sMHHQZP.png)/month Avalon 8 million in chip orders? *from comments here on bitcointalk, looking for links Butterfly Labs ? KnC owner refuses to answer (https://i.imgur.com/gYCbowR.png) AsicMiner ~$6,711,800 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=99497.msg2788821#msg2788821) (unknown time frame) | Blade Sales Income: 29,594.75BTC + USB Sales Income: 37,524.00BTC Satoshi Dice ? BTCQuick ~ $320,721.23 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=268673.msg2882712#msg2882712)/month The only data I can find on Silk Roads annual sales is roughly $22 Million a year (http://arxiv.org/pdf/1207.7139v1.pdf), i.e. ~$1.8 million/month so BitPay alone technically processes more than Silk Road alone.

Edit: Also, Just-Dice.com (https://just-dice.com/) has even more BTC wagers than Satoshi Dice, but they are off blockchain transactions for the most part. All of those statistics are published up to the minute.

See http://blog.coinbase.com/post/49782323057/coinbase-now-processing-15m-per-month-in-bitcoin-buys for the source. It's probably more than that now, but that's the most recent data that they've listed.
