It is a prediction that, to be accomplished with satisfactory results, would require a lot of research.
In my opinion, if the less active users are included, this number could be higher than four hundred thousand.
I think we can not able to give numbers because no one knows can calculate the actual number of users of bitcoin we do not have device as basis to know how many people are actively using bitcoin.
Exactly, what we have now is just an estimate of the users, if we do not know the real number of users of bitcoin there is a big possibility that some of the users are whales who will manipulate the price of bitcoin because they are holding a great amount of bitcoins.

I think we can not able to give numbers because no one knows can calculate the actual number of users of bitcoin we do not have device as basis to know how many people are actively using bitcoin.

The best guess would be to do your own survey over different groups of people and then use a % mean average.  When can never know by addresses created so how else?

If you survey people online they are more likely to use bitcoin, if you talk to people on the street tons will still not understand what bitcoin even is.

Its better not to waste time in knowing that how many are actually using it, instead that time should be invested in earning bitcoins as no one can get accurate results.

Since it's super anonymous and people can have more then one wallet at a time this is quite impossible to check.
Also some people have hardware wallets etc so I don't think you could check this.
But it's quite alot of users and still expanding that's the most I can tell you.

It is right, we can't calculate the users number of bitcoins, but we judge it because of the bitcoin price, I mean its price show us what is going with bitcoin. Also it is true, now majority have awareness about bitcoin, and the number of the bitcoin users increased within last 2 or 3 years, and now it is continuously growing,So we have only one way to predict about it.

It's hard to predict the total number of bitcoin users as the bitcoin is anonymous virtual currency.
But I think that these days bitcoins is being used everywhere and people using bitcoins are > 100K

in fact no one know the actual number of bitcoin users but it is a fact that the users of bitcoin are many more as compare to any other crypto currency and their number is increasing day by day.

We can see it on the daily volume of BTC.
In addition there is actually a greater popularization day after day of Bitcoin / crypto currencies.

In addition there is actually a greater popularization day after day of Bitcoin / crypto currencies.

The daily volume really has nothing to do with how many people are using bitcoin.
The 7 day volume on bitcoinwisdom is 90,703 now, that does not mean there has been that many users it just means thats how much has been traded, one peraon could have made the whole trade.

It is difficult to get even an approximation  of the real value, and I would be surprised if  anyone managed  to get a good number for it , without very high error margins, of course..

Its not possible to predict the number of bitcoin users exactly, but in terms of percentage 5-10% of people might be aware of bitcoin and 2-5% might be using it. This is expected to increase gradually over the falling years.

all of these are going to give us a vague idea of how many people are using bitcoin. and none of them can help us speculate about the exact number of them.
there are so many data that you can use for this and you have to use them all together.
- daily trade volume
- number of transactions per day
- number of new wallets created on services like blockchain.info, Coinbase,...
- number of people using different online services that accept bitcoin like Gyft, Steam, ....

for a closer estimate you will have to start asking people in the street and extrapolate the data.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip.
Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

Yeah, maybe if someone can manage to count the online wallets and reach to a estimate somehow, but what about those who uses hardware wallets? You cannot count them at all as they are never known, so it is basically not possible.

By far not. If you look at 2% of the people, then you are talking about 140 million people. And that's definitely not the case. If we at some point in the far future manage to have 1% of the world population to use Bitcoin, then that can be seen as a great mile stone. 1% equals around 70 million people.

I think we don't need to do something crazy like create a survey, we can do that with easily if the transaction has increases in positive percentage it's mean bitcoin user has grow.

We can't say because there are people having numerous wallets and some have abandoned using BTC so it really can't be exactly said how many people use BTC

Exactly, but, is there a number of wallets in the blockchain? we can maybe get some average out of it, it would still show something.

Need some spare btc for a new PC that can at least run Adobe Dreamweaver.

I think certainly bitcoin users would be more than 400k., even if you look at the total users in this forum alone is more than 600K users. certainly out there are more users

In the world surely countless  users are using btc, like those  who make different investments, and also the people  who enjoy using it, because of the easy way that  transactions can be done with it.

Is there a way to determine the number of people who are actually using Bitcoin till date? Who would have access to such information? Meaning a way to find out, how many new people have used Bitcoin in 2016 , so that we can say exponential growth is natural not artificially created by hoarders.
Be 5% of people worldwide are using and know bitcoin . Since news spread very fast across the world so while taking greater and greater and use it and most of those who invest with them online . Maybe in a few years bitcoin is further identify these people and many more can they use it and do earn bitcoin.
