Do you know the number of wallets opened so far? Do we know the number of people using bitcoin?
Where can I get this information? Thank you.

There is no way to get the exact information that you are seeking, for wallets every other new bitcoin related site is opening there own wallet so well that's a lot. As fast as the number of people using Bitcoin is concerned then there is no way to know this since bitcoin is designed to be anonymous, but still with a simple Google search you can get an estimate.

There are more than 50 wallet sites online now but hardly 5 sites are trusted by users.
If you want to collect such data you need to do enormously deep analysis and then also you will be able to find approximate number of users. Like you can check how many accounts are there on a given exchange but then no site would share such details.

uh? the original post is not talking about online wallet such a blockain.info, coinbase and akin, but about the wallet.dat that you find in the %appdata%--->roaming

and at present there is no way to know how many are opened, usually people prefer to create a new address, but i actually like to have a new wallet for if i want to have a new address, it's more anonymous

The bitcoin network do not have a concept like open wallet action, all those wallet are already existed, you just randomly pick one and uses it.
also the address belongs to whom holds the private key, you can't owen a private key, you just hold it and nobody else have it.

here is a v2.5 of directory, you can check and get a good exam of "bitcoin wallet"

it is very difficult to find the number of people using bitcoin or how many people have open wallets so far because many user have different wallet address so it is difficult to ans such questions.....

I think no need to waste your time to count the number of purse to describe total the user's of bitcoin, because it is futile
because in fact there is no reliable method to calculate total bitcoin users

Blockchain Web wallet have 11+ millions users. You can check here https://blockchain.info/wallet/#/. Other Web wallets do not have so many users. Regarding hardware wallets - it is very hard to say, how many users install Bitcoin wallet.

That is astonishing. I know that there are many people using Bitcoin at present but I can't believe that there have been 11+ millions people come from Blockchain.info. this is new to me. I am really happy to know that the number of people keep increasing every day
We can never know the exact number of Bitcoin users since Bitcoin is created for the anonymity and for protecting its user.

There are many wallets now and there are types of wallet that is mostly used here: online wallets and cold wallets.
We don't know exactly the number of people who used bitcoin because it is not important for it cause it is not produced by government. The maker of it is unidentified person who's alias Nakamoto. You can get also information here by searching.

It would be very hard to count how many total bitcoin wallet had been opened because there are now lots of wallet providers. Aside from that, some people here have multiple wallets. There are also some people who discontinued using bitcoin and abandoned their online wallets!

Just to add: even if I've only personally opened 3 wallets, I know that at least three sites I have accounts on with bitcoin in them regularly change the deposit address. I somewhat consider my accounts on these sites as "web wallets" since they perform the exact same tasks as a wallet, except without private keys or seeds.

Within my Electrum wallet I have over 30 addresses, and throughout the lifespan of my accounts on the three sites I mentioned, I'm certain more than 10 addresses have been generated under each account.

I'm guessing here that OP actually wants to find out how many addresses have been generated.

Bitcoin is created for the anonymity so that no matter how you try, you can never know the exact number of bitcoin wallets or even the number of the people who use Bitcoin. Instead of asking about this impossible job, you should do something more useful and more effective to you such as learning new things about bitcoin. Veteran members never ask about this kind of question

No one knows because theres no statistics regarding on this matter because people could able to make multiple addresses and if we are askin about the precise number of individual who uses bitcoin then we would really have a hard time on knowing it or not possible at all.

We should answer your question with a question. Why do you need this information? People can thumb suck stats from sites like Blockchain.info and other centralized sites, but nobody knows how much of these wallets are just duplicates of single users. I have 100's of Bitcoin addresses with different amounts of Satoshi. Every time I experiment with a new site that requires a bitcoin address, I use a new one.

So what are you trying to determine with this question? How many users use Bitcoin or how many wallets contain Satoshi or how many active wallets there are?

You spoke my mind. What exactly does he want to do with the information. Is it just for the sake of making a post?

well not really, if there was a way to say that two wallet are connected based on transaction that are sent it would kill a bit the anon of bitcoin, because the real anonimity in bitcoin come when you use a completely different wallet

those wallet will not use as a output other addresses that you have created, thus linking them and making you traceable more easily, if for every new transaction i'm using a new different wallet your TX will be 100% anon

As many were saying. I believe bitcoin wallets that were opened are cannot be measure. Its immeasurable because we dont have any data for that matter. Bitcoin wallet is unlimited. Even if you counted all people who are actually using bitcoin. Theres no accurate information because every single person could have multiple wallets.

Agree with you sir that we can not measure the bitcoin wallet opened since start up to present even member/user we do not know how many people using bitcoin since each users has multiple bitcoin wallet for the safety of our money and to lessen the risk.

There's no way to tell ho wmany wallet have been used in the market,because you can produce unlimited number of wallet,especially if you are using an electrum wallet or a tor wallet,and besides bitcoin is decentralized no company can come out with a right figure.

You need to understand that total Number of wallets is not equal to the total Number of People who use Bitcoins. People nowadays make a wallet on many websites. For example in a country where coinbase doesn't convert to their local currency, people will have to make wallets in their local bitcoin websites. You can guess a number of total wallets but not total Number of people who are using Bitcoins.
