Title: Approximate number of bitcoin owners in India
Post by: rohnearner on August 02, 2014, 09:46:37 AM
 Any rough Idea about how many Indians own 1or more Bitcoin at this point of time ..?
My guess will be not more than 1000. Correct me if I'm wrong.

And number of Indian member registered on bitcointalk , who are active at least once a month.

He also claims that there will be 21million bitcoins in  market by 2020. Don't understand how is that possible.

This is after 2 years of research. lol

The Bitcoin algorithm produces 12 Bitcoins every few hours and it is designed so that the total number of Bitcoins will never exceed 21 million, which it should reach by 2020.

Certainly not much more than that

Feel pity for him, and his book.

It might just turn out to be a best-seller.
No correlation between content and number of copies sold.
I am sure our Bollywood stars would agree.  ;)

True... This is what annoys me, that such half witted information is going to sweep some people off their feet.
And then, we go through the ordeal of explaining it again across India :(

Coming from the Dell experience, tbh...

Grossly inaccurate numbers. I know peepal (nearly 250 + contacts) who never register on here. But they have large stocks and buy and sell almost on weekly basis. This is since 2010. They never mine. And is hence hard to track. Almost impossible. Also, even understanding or knowing this information is no good for Bitcoin users.

Would you dumb peepal tell me why you posted on a 4 year old post? What reason? None of this is relevant anymore. Go eat some fish, jog your brain a little. And think twice before digging up old threads.
