rpietila has done a lot of research on this. The numbers have been checked several ways so I think it's about as accurate as we are going to get.

According to his work, 91.08% of bitcoin holders have .01 or more.

I've always wondered the numbers actually per person instead of per wallet since so many people have multiple wallets (especially the larger holders).
There really hasn't been very much research done on that yet has there?

This stat can't be correct. I'm pretty sure nearly 60% of the community has more than 0.01 Bitcoin. maybe in different wallets but it total they have more than that.
Well that is some good stats there. I want to know how did you find that stats out? I'd like to know that for other stats to be clear. You can pm me the link.
I think half of the world population will never have access to bitcoin.
But yes, there is a lot more room to grow. But that's no one-way street. Bitcoin still is beta software. Anything can happen.
ya.ya.yo!

Less than 1 in 7000 people in the world own at least 0.01 BTC(~$6 USD). Many people own more than one wallet with more than 0.01 BTC so this number is probably much higher.
Many people has more than 0.01 on exchanges or vaults so this number is probably lower.
World population: ~7,000,000,000
Wallets with >0.01: ~1,000,000
