How many bitcoins do you have?

[Kitemike]

It's just like everything else, more than 90% of the wealth is held by less than 10% of the people (and I'm in the wrong 10%).

Good observation, this is always the case, even if you distribute the coin very evenly from the beginning, at the end some people will end up with more and more coins and some people will even have a debt, the income/spending habit is different for each person, seems that we can not really do a lot about it, just ensure the poorest people have a decent life maybe

Thanks for acknowledging my observation for what it was...just an observation.  From some of the harsh comments afterward I think some thought I was whining, or making some kind of slight against my “betters”, but that was not the case.

I’m totally against forced redistribution of wealth (i.e.. taxation) and can only hope that those top 10%’ers are benevolent and voluntaristic.  I’m not sure how to “ensure the poorest people have a decent life” without forcing some kind of welfare.  That would be more of what we already have with the state forcing the redistribution.  Maybe limits on holdings before they are forced to “invest” in growth industries.   That type of thing would be better than taxation.  It would be more like borrowing from the rich.

To the above posts, remember that bitcoin is not wealth. If you cannot multiply something to make people better off, that thing is not wealth.

Much less than some, much more than most.

I'm doubting any single person on this forum has over 100k coins, let alone 17.

[phatsphere]

to all those above 100,000: i want to see a proof!!!

[marketersales]

Just seeing how many whales we have on the forums. I can't see who votes what, so no reason to hide

I have 30 BTC ATM.

Bitcoin price will remain volatile until it only takes 10 to be wealthy - but that's just me talking  >10

[claire]

but they're only as good as someone can really pay it.

Indeed.  Good for you, man.  Priorities...

I do hold some coins, but can't disagree with your comment in the least either.

I have 0.026 BTC, currently worth about $4.00 USD. Any BitCoin millionaires  reading this post please send BTC to the address below. I am down on my luck and unemployed.  I promise not to waste any funds donated. I will only use 10% of the money on  drugs and loose women. I f I get over 100 BTC I will  try toget  my own Avalon ASic and be self sufficient  You know, the whole "Give a man a fish...Teach A Man to fish.

Thanks in ADvance.

Not enough.

[dllhg]

I stumbled across this thread and was astonished to see the results.  half the people polled here said they had 100K coins !!  That is 360 million at today's price!!  That is just incredible to me.  How many people cashed out to early and how many made millions ?  Inquiring minds want to know.

At present i am owner of 0.06 Bitcoin.So all share how many bitcoin you have?

Ah, but as more people use bitcoin they will be spread thinner.  Someday, perhaps, the standard unit will be a Satoshi instead of a bitcoin.  Perhaps pizza will cost 5,000 Satoshi, and the average person will hold about 1,000,000 Satoshi (about 0.01 BTC).  When there are that many people using it and it is spread that thin (assuming that you haven't lost/spent the BTC that you have right now), you will be in the top 10% and will have significant wealth.  You just have to wait for bitcoin to gain enough popularity ;-)

When it is spread that thinly, do you think additional decimals of precision will need to be added?

[mekar sari]

What is your reason for asking how much we have? is not this something that can be said is not important.

[shrabon999]

I haven't any bitcoin.But I am interested about Bitcoin.If I can buy it I will hold it.

[Drnice]

The quantity of bitcoin I have is less than one,  but truelly the whales are the ones with the highest quantity of bitcoin in the system
