Is there a website where I can view the wealth distribution of BTC and different altcoins?

I know such data are only estimates (address != holder, exchange wallets, etc.), but would still like to get a feeling of how different coins are distributed among its holders.

There is no consolidated data about that but you can search it individually, there are plenty of websites that provide different datas about coin distribution or different blockchains. Maybe one day someone can provide that info in the future but it will be a very ardous job and will eat more time.

You can check other balances using their address but it hard to find a lot of bounty for now by using a simple website because of updating it always and everyday there are a lot of campaigns do made. There are several scammers and there are some token that are no value. You can check it's real value using its coinmarket cap. There are also have some website from bounty campaign which they create sometimes to know for others that there has a lot of investor and an organize plan.

It's hard to do because to get UTXO set for every blockchain, which means syncing with every blockchain, and you need to modify your code for every coin, since they can have different formats for their data. So, it's only feasible to do for a small set of coins, maybe top 10 or top 20. Maybe big services like coinmarketcap or coingecko could do this if there was enough interest, so you might want to contact them and pitch this idea. It would indeed be pretty interesting to compare this data, I'm sure Bitcoin would have much more even distribution than most altcoins.

You can collect one by one information. But you can not find a list that is all together. Imagine, dozens of new projects are being created every day and you need to follow them all, or any shitcoin gains value, and while it actually does not have any value at all, it makes its owners wealthy. It is almost impossible to set up the system and always show the correct data.

There are some "rich lists" that show distribution graphs. For Bitcoin, for example:

https://bitinfocharts.com/de/top-100-richest-bitcoin-addresses.html

BCH:

https://bitinfocharts.com/de/top-100-richest-bitcoin%20cash-addresses.html

LTC:

https://bitinfocharts.com/en/top-100-richest-litecoin-addresses.html

Even if the links say so, these pages are not only simple rich lists but also show percentages of addresses with certain amounts.

A website which shows stats for a large number of smaller altcoins is the CryptoID block explorer. For PPC, for example:

https://chainz.cryptoid.info/ppc/#!rich

However, they show only a very basic distribution graph, not as detailed as at Bitinfocharts.

I doubt there's a place that collates this for all coins so you're better off Googling each individual coin and the phrase 'rich list'.

Most of them will have a site that lists the biggest addresses. Some will identify the addresses such as developer or exchange funds.

Here's an example for XEM - https://nemnodes.org/richlist/

That will not be possible, because Bitcoin and some Alt coins are pseudo anonymous, so nobody knows who own what and how many of the tokens.

You get some coins with almost no anonymity like Ripple, but you will have to get access to the third party services data to be able to access that

kind of information.

Some exchanges and wallet providers with KYC requirements also have information on some people's ownership, but not of all the people that owns

coins, outside of their internal database. Wink

thanks, but as said in my post, i'm aware of the fact that the data would not be accurate. still, relatively speaking, such data can't be used to compare coins.

I don't think that you are able to find such information.
It is very difficult to calculate wealth of different hodlers on a blockchain as a user might have acquired more than 1 wallet address.
Even if you find a website which provides such information, it will be accurate probably.
