How many bitcoins are out there?

How many are there and how many bitcoins are being mined a day?

At the top under "total BTC".

Ideally, 7200BTC/day mined.  6 blocks/hr, 50BTC/block.

depending on your reason for wanting the figure, you may also like to subtract at least 20,000 that have been permanently lost (as claimed by various people on this forum).

I'm wondering about the inflation. If the demand can keep up with the growing supply. At a rate of 7200 BTC per day, in one year that will be 2,628,000. Of coarse graphic cards are only getting better. With 1,730,079 BTC out there now. 1,730,079 x $6.50 = $11,245,513.50 USD. 2628000 + 1730079 = 4,358,079 BTC one year from now. 4,358,079 x $6.50 = $28,327,513.50

Food for thought I guess.

That rate is going to drop in half sometime next year.

Damn I screw up. There are 7,228,000 bitcoins. Which is worth $46,930,000 USD currently. That makes more sense.
