What percentage of people on Earth will own Bitcoin by 2020

[Altitude]

10 percent and I'm being generous  in 2020 baby boomers will still be alive

It depends how the condition of the economy or the need to be desired by everyone. If all of the given system bitcoin needed or desired, then at least the presentation in 2020 are 40% and the maximum is 90%. So it depends how the conditions in time to come.

That is so unrealistic in my opinion, we are not that strong to invade the world yet and since we are just an alternative currency for fiat we will never rich that big unless there is a change of government in the future that would order people to use bitcoins instead of fiat.

If something big happened on bitcoin history, maybe it might happen and i hope it so. My predict is 5-15% people on the earth will own bitcoin on that year.

I think something around fourteen percent sounds reasonable.

I think something around fourteen percent sounds reasonable.

I think no more than 1% of the people in the world will use bitcoin. At present, the percentage is less 0.001%.

I find 1% very optmistic. Like you say at the moment the amount of real users is very low, and getting 1% of the world using bitcoin needs a miracle.
Even most western countries don't have a lot of bitcoin users.

I agree, the population is very huge in this world and some of them or majority of them has no idea about bitcoin. Only the people who are constantly doing online stuffs are aware of bitcoin as it is an online money, serious businessman still relies on the more safer fiat in their transaction may it be offline or online.

However, we will see a growth with massive adoption and let us hope for that to happen in the future.

[dunfida]

by that year 2020 my guess was  only 5% because the population of the world is so huge and  as of now only a little percentage or partition of  it  maybe 1% or less than are people who knew bitcoin. Somehow it would be added up in upcoming years since bitcoin is becoming popular.

I've been running a poll for some time now about the value of 1 bitcoin by 2020 and it's safe to say a lot of different opinions and guesses are made.
This poll completes the other one and i'm really looking forward to everyone's input in this.

Tnx for your input 

I am surprised, you are talking about 90 to 100. Do you think that is it possible in 2020 ? Because after 4 year 2020 will come. So it is not a long time period, it is only 4 years left, and also you know in my country, i believe only 0.10 % people know about bitcoin. Bitcoin is great crypto currency but it need big lever publicity, than may be half world know about bitcoin.

Every system deserves a chance to prove through time and what we can see with bitcoin is the adopters are increasing and that is a good indication for future success. We might be a little percentage now but if this continuous growth will remain we could be a huge number in the future.

to me 10 to 20 percent of people will be using bitcoin in 2020, i think the next generation when the education rate will will be so much increase as compare to present time, and these people will be taking interest in digital currency so the users of bitcoin will hopefully increase.

Honestly we can not know how much people are using bitcoin but in my estimation we are just below 10% in 2020 because more people are born every day population is increasing fast unlike before..

Think more now i believe we have this amount
30 % seem reachable and think that it will be

you are right though i think that 40 per cent by 2020 is way too much, i hope that at least 20 per cent of the people will be into bitcoins as it would be a big adoption

The active user of the bitcoin is just about 200,000. I think the user number will rise 40% a year. So in 2020, there will be fewer than 1 million users.

[jacaf01]

I don't think it will be more than 1%, knowing or hearing is different from owning. I heard about Bitcoin in 2011 and I bought one this year, that is five years difference despite my level of understanding of digital world, the assumption that the coin is meant for hackers made me to distance myself from it initially, anytime I discuss it with some of my friends they seem disinterested as if is a bad idea or something that is not real or perhaps, I'm just fantasizing about the coin. The only way it can be more than 1% is if governments of different countries start adopting it has a legitimate currency which I doubt because is going to bring down their Ponzi scheme. Don't less us forget that 1% of world population is 7.4 million people right now. Just do the math, we can't have more than 21 million Bitcoin

you might be correct about it i think, fiat will still be really strong by that year, in my opinion bitcoin is going to become big in a few decades though

but to me 10 to 20 percent of people will be using bitcoin, they will have both the options, they will use fiat currency as well as bitcoin, in present time we can see that all most in all countries of the world people are using bitcoin so i am hopeful that this percentage will increase so much in next few years, therefore i can expect that 10 to 20 percent people will be using bitcoin .

10 to 20%? Do you have an idea what is the total number of people who are using bitcoin now? I think that is too unrealistic, we cannot achieve that number of adopters in a short period of time and thinking that 2020 is just 4 years from now.

[Benchman]

~50 Million People.

So, 0,5-0,8% max.

[awesome31312]

Less than four years left to find out! As with any other poll, the estimates seem to be waayy off.
