Well, you would need to include order book depth - if I create 1 billion Sukrimdollars, then sell a single one for 10 USD, do I now hold 99 999 999 990 USD? Market caps are only useful in very liquid markets, BTCUSD is not very liquid at all.

This would be a fun hackathon project.  If someone else doen't do it before the bitcoin conference hackathon in May, I might take a crack at it then.

With the total bitcoin market capitalization you could buy about:

1358 Bentleys (200.000/bentley)
1508 US houses (based on median house price jan 2013)
362 McDonald's franchises (based on the minimum investment of 750.000)
77 lunches with Warren Buffett (3.5M/lunch)
6 Picasso's (based on the auction price of "woman sitting near window")

- Today we could own 1/2 of Google

Ahm. google, market cap $258 billion.
Bitcoin money supply: $270 million.

Today we could own 0.1% of Google!
Not that its true, nor does it make a great headline, or does it.

I would like to see a website (light and simple) that day by day show which things the entire Bitcoin system is able to buy if everyone will agree to sell their bitcoin/bitcoin-business Smiley

It will just be a website to advertise the power of the Bitcoin economy, I'm not asking for another kickstarter.

Examples:
- Today the Bitcoin economy is equal to X islands
- Today we could own 1/2 of Google
- Today we are able to buy the Y country.
...

It should have G+/Twitter/FB accounts to "spam" these achievements.
