Maybe, but when you see this :https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1542212

412 address = 3.5MBTC

And obv some big players got many address with big sum ! or maybe 1000 address with 100btc

my guess is the market play with 2M BTC, no more.

So, of all of the Bitcoins ever created, there are only 22% in circulation.

not far with my 2M guess Wink

1% of users hold 90% of bitcoins...

Actually, that's a verifiably false statement. =)

Funny to see it's exactly the same IRL.

I think a great portion of them are lost, mined by people who thought that bitcoin was just 'funny' and deleted everything

I'm hugely curious about the huge mass of BTC that was mined in 2009, by a select few people.

Obviously if someone tried to unload a million at one time, the wouldn't be able to, and it would ruin the market.

Who are these people? What will they do with so many bitcoins?
