Here is an interesting chart (as of 2/6/2014):

Obviously most people (myself included), that hold a decent amount of BTC are holding them in different wallets, however the above chart shows that if your btc wallet address holds more than 0.01 BTC, that you are currently in the top 1% of the bitcoin richest addresses.

This is an interesting distribution chart, as the number of addresses holding 1k or more bitcoins is very small in comparison to the world's population. Where do you sit?

Does the stats strike a resemblance to something that is extremely familiar?

Gotta say, those numbers are VERY surprising. I would have expected way more holding 1000+ BTC based on early adopters. I guess I'm not as late in the game as I thought. Cool

As more things are purchasable in Bitcoin, these numbers will begin to change dramatically.

Pretty sure if I was an early adopter with 20,000 bitcoins, I would begin spending some of it once I can "buy anything under the sun" with Bitcoins.

In other words, as commerce increases, the distribution will even out a bit, and hoarding will decrease a bit.

Sort of resembles how wealth is distributed in fiat currencies
