The number of addresses that hold between 100 and 1,000 Bitcoin, over the years.

  1. What's the latest count?

    About 18,000 addresses

    hold between 100 and 1,000 Bitcoin.

    The big-holder tier, where exchanges and funds dominate.

  2. But addresses aren't people.

    An address is a slot on the blockchain, not a person or a wallet. One person can control thousands of addresses; a single exchange holds millions of customers' coins in just a few. Coins that are lost forever still count here too. So read this as a count of addresses, never a headcount of people.

    This tier especially is dominated by exchanges, funds, and custodians, which hold the coins of huge numbers of customers in just a few addresses. So this is not a count of large individual owners.

  3. How much Bitcoin is that, and what share of the whole?

Understanding Addresses With a Balance Between 100 and 1,000 BTC

This page counts the addresses holding between 100 and 1,000 Bitcoin: the tier of the largest holders, positions worth tens to hundreds of millions of dollars. This tracks how many there are over the years.

Here the gap between addresses and people is at its widest. Exchanges, funds, and custodians hold the coins of huge numbers of customers inside a small set of addresses this size, so a single entry can stand for many thousands of people. Read this strictly as a count of addresses.

Even so, watching this tier is worth it. When the count grows, coin is gathering into large addresses; when it shrinks, those balances are moving apart or being spent. For which way the biggest wallets are leaning, see Big Holder Activity.
