actual number of people using Bitcoin?

[20kevin20]

I heard we've already passed 11 million users. More users = higher price, and if it becomes popular then we're going to see a lot of stores accepting it. Of course governments want control though so I have no idea how would they control that though.

No one can actually count the actual  numbers of bitcoin users right now. Since bitcoin is anonymous and one user can have 100s of account in every exchanges/sites.  So we we can't do the actual numbers.

you are right that no one can count the actual number of bitcoin users because there is a lot of people are using bitcoin and its impossible to count the actual number of bitcoin users and bitcoin users are going to more increasing day by day.

They have all the power to control bitcoin if they want, the fact that bitcoin is decentralized, it is our interest or interest of the majority here should be heard by the government and I do not know what will happen if the government will try to regulate the use of bitcoin.

No, probably the number of people using bitcoin can reach or even be more than 100 million people but bear in mind that figure also an estimate. We would appreciate if some can give a genuine source of data like this instead of a mare estimate.

There's no way we can tell the exact number of users of bitcoin since we are just all anonymous and everyone can make different accounts so that is a big no no, what the estimate shows is the only basis on our actions towards bitcoin and if you are an investor that growing number is a good indication for your success.

There's really no way of finding out exactly the actual number of users of bitcoin. One person can have as many wallets as he wants and due to the decentralized nature of bitcoin, one can only guess if the person is making use of the many wallets at his disposal. Maybe if the time comes that people are only allowed a certain number of wallets that can be used simultaneously, maybe some kind of data can be mined from that.

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.

Honestly you can not easily know how much people are using bitcoin because its anonymous and many addresses are generating everyday.. and also many people are using multiple wallet for security reason..  so for me its impossible to determine how much the actual number of people using bitcoin..

There ae uncountable people using the bitcoin for sure i know that allot of people are using the bitcoin also for nothing becuaes most of them are thinging to make money
while holding thje bitcoin and that is not true off course.

Bitcoin is moving forward with very solid growth even it may take some more time to reach its all time higher price ever, but I'm pretty sure it will surpass it very soon and the future of bitcoin will be more brighter than ever.The price started increasing. More are joining into this community which ia also an indication of its immense growth.

With bitcoins intense and rapid growth in terms of its  value and population increasing community it has been a solid online currency.  It may last for a very long time and millions of people are already noticing bitcoin  in their online transactions. The  higher its price and the more people craving bitcoin it will attract more people to add to the list and soon it may reach 100 million users worldwide.

The topic is about the actual number people using bitcoin, and you are discussing the price and the growth, for sure it is growing day by day and that is a reason why we cannot count the exact users of bitcoin because if today we counted them (though it is not possible) and tomorrow they increase again and our yesterdays estimation will be wrong again in the next day.

yes there is no way for this,main reason is bitcoin is anonymous and bitcoin is decentralised as well and no body is controlling it.So there are not any offial places for it where all records have been stored about how many bitcoin users and also it is impossible to determine that.

[Potato Chips]

It is impossibe to determine the actual number of bitcoin users, Cause bitcoin is anonymous and most users use multiple wallets.
However I can guarantee you that bitcoin/cryptocurrencies are getting popular and used as the time passed by

Not only that so many people are using bitcoin but also because Bitcoin is currently the best thing to invest in and many big companies are accepting bitcoin in exchange for the services or products they are offering.

Yeah and the fact is that we are also not aware that if people around us are aware about bitcoins or not and if they actually using it or not as many of them would like to keep it secret and don't want to disclose to other that they are using bitcoins and that makes it impossible to judge the exact number of users.

I also accept it, because bitcoin is a new technology, and everyone who use the laptop or computer, if they know about the bitcoin than definitely they will use it and not only for use it, even they want more bitcoins, like me, when i know about it, and now in this time, i am depend on bitcoin. I also see bitcoin has bright future, and also it will be a part of our future.

Its very hard to predict on how many people are using BTC. More and more getting into this forum, earning and utilizing the btc earned. Many merchants have started accepting bitcoins. So the currency is being rotated more other like before. My prediction would be it has become 5 times bigger than what we had 2 years back.

And not all the people who are into bitcoins are already here in forum because many of them wants to remain anonymous and mines secretly.

I don't think that it is just only 5 times the number way back 2 years ago, because it is just like a virus that can spread very fast.

I am thinking maybe 7-8 times.

I think there is no way to determine this. there is nothing that can determine the actual growth accurately but i bet you there is increasing growth of people because of rising price.

it has many way to find out the bitcoin user.calculate the members .because he only find out .many New user are joining in bitcoin we are all newie member. So  actual growth is calculate in approximately. Many Newie member is sharing our knowledge. So gradually increase in  rising members

actually no one can calaclate that how many numbers ot people of the world are using bitcoin . the reason behind this is the privacy of user in the bitcoin .
because bitcoin will never provide anu data of the user to another that how many accounts using or one person using how many btc adress .
so it is complicated to determine actual no. of people using btc .

nope I think we still will not be able to count the number of users who have become old bitcoin users or new users, even you will not be able to calculate how many new users adopt bitcoin. it all will always be clear, just as how much of the total population of a country, although the government conducted a census, but it will not be able to describe the exact population of that country
