We can't know everything what is happening on the internet, especialy having in mind the deep web so it's hard to make any estimation. Still with overal acceptance and especialy with high price the number of users is probably increasing and people are changing their opinion about the Bitcoin for the better.

A rising price of BTC does is not necessarily caused by the increasing number of users. This might be an empty pump from the rich traders who dont have anything better to do with their free time. Please keep that in mind.

That can be one of the causes of the price increase in bitcoin lately, but I think the population who is using bitcoin is also increasing with the time. I can't estimate what is the real number who actually using it, but we start to see more place who accept bitcoin.
Well for my own speculation we are 23% of population who are using bitcoin.. and i think we are increasing but we can say that we are fast growing but we are gradually increasing. that is why the price right now are gradually increasing and i think more people will use bitcoin and more demand will come..

If you think that 23% of the population use BTC right now then please show us your proof. Until you can show me the hard numbers and statistics your speculation has no bearing and is not backed up by facts. Why would we believe a random person in this forum who is sometimes surely brain farting from his mouth.

You can't really tell how many but you could just estimate. It's all about that like the human population, it's hard to say the actual number. You can't count your hair but you could estimate. It increases everyday for sure, some maybe just use it for business but not always being used.

You can't say the exact number of people who are using bitcoin.
Since it is very easy for an average person to create a lot of wallet on different sites and we should not be bother of the number of people using bitcoin.
yes that is right to say that it is very difficult to know the actual number of bitcoin users, but it is also a fact that the number of bitcoin users are increasing from time to time.


As mentioned users were getting increased time to time, but in reality actual number of bitcoin users cannot be calculated. Another fact is that bitcoin price variation is happening in accordance to the circulation of bitcoin made by the users and sometimes the variation happens based upon the increasing adoption.

I think about 1 million users, it is based on a survey of a site I've ever seen on bloomberg tv. The increase of approximately 12% per year.

1M seems too low, because if we assume that the average joe can buy less than one bitcoin, they only injected one B in bitcoin, at the current price right? that is not enough to have the today marketcap of bitcoin, i've assumed so because i know that many don't want to invest much in bitcoin, they only buy when the price increase a small amount just to have some return in case it get even bigger

This is bizarre logic, mildly speaking

There are quite a few people who have by far more than 1 bitcoin (actually, hundreds and thousands of bitcoins), while your average Joes may not have bought anything at all. In this way, such assumptions are meaningless unless I misunderstood something in what you wanted to say. In respect to the number of users, I don't think there are more than half a million active users around the world at present

I think no one can determine the actual number of people who use bitcoin. Becouse it so anonimously and one person could be have more than one wallet.

For me the number of these people is an infinite number which cannot be counted just like our human hairs numbers cannot be counted pieces by pieces, thats how bitcoin works to life of people nowadays and its becoming more and increasing rapidly on those who use bitcoin for earning also a bitcoin. The reason if this is investments of bitcoin turns to bitcoin profits that can be a source of financial income for people who are positive and are hardworking individuals.
The number of people using bitcoin may not be easy to know exactly but we can estimate how many people there are by counting how many active wallets there are on each online wallet, but even then it is not even the actual the number because there are people using bitcoin in offline wallets, but it is a one way to guess the users of bitcoin.

Yup, an amount said to be or in the get by some person or instasi is the amount that is not necessarily true. For all existing users in the bitcoin nowadays no one record and sometimes 2 people have a wallet and also more than 1 addres, which makes such things can make the calculation is done manually or registration will be not very suitable in fact. So, instead of having to think and calculate the users of bitcoin. The better we are looking for ways to get better profits in the bitcoin
Yup we should put our attentions on earning or getting better profits in bitcoin rather than keep bothering our selves on how many people are using bitcoin now and then. Maybe we can also be more focus on improving bitcoin network like making the transactions even faster so most of us will save more time when we need to transfer or receive bitcoin and if that happens then the number of people or investors will grow massive because of the great improvements that they can see on bitcoin.

That's what I think too, some users getting involve in bitcoins are only attracted by the high price but when the time comes that it goes down suddenly they will leave btc with no more reason. Bitcoin is just like of others opportunity that is treated by short term investment only. But in my side this is the only opportunity will run in lifetime.

Current price that has been subject to months of growth will surely attract people, but these people are just looking for a short term investment.

Everything is fine as long as the price keeps going up for people, but as soon as the price starts to plummet, people suddenly lose all confidence and turn from a bull into a bear.

What I try to say is that the majority of the people here are as volatile as the price is. One day they see great potential in Bitcoin, while the next day they are deeply disappointed and think Bitcoin has no future.

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.

The number would be far less than any bitcoiner would expect. Try to imagine how many drug addicts use BTC and how many drug dealers. I would think that theres not much.
Like what an expert hacker said, we are only accessing 10% of the internet because the rests is in the deep web, so that means illegal transaction are rampant in the dark web and that helps bitcoin to increase its demand.

That's good for all of us BTC holders correct? All we have to do is keep waiting for the price to go up and let the BTC markets work their magic. I can see many people here wanting to make BTC accepted by banks and become a mainstream currency just for that same purpose.
