The total value of BitCoin?

[JackH]

How can we see the entire value of all the BitCoins? (if we assume that the price of MtGox is the price). I want to know in order to make a new article on www.italkcash.com about the BitCoin mania and I want to put a LOT of facts down to stop some of the confusion among people online.

http://bitcoincharts.com/markets/ has both the total number of blocks and the total number of Bitcoins in existence, which is (# blocks) * 50.  Multiply that by the current price.

Obviously the final result will change every minute, as the price changes and the number of blocks found increases.

http://bitcoinwatch.com/ has this number in a few currencies available.

There is in fact .00000001 less bitcoins in existence then displayed on bitcoinwatch because someone intentional created a block with a reward of 49.99999999 bitcoins. The network only checks to make sure that you don't reward your self extra bitcoins.
