The number of addresses that hold at least 10 Bitcoin, over the years.

  1. What's the latest count?

    About 150,000 addresses

    hold at least 10 Bitcoin.

    The larger end of the network, ten coins and up.

  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.

    Because this running total includes the very largest addresses, much of it is exchanges and companies holding customers' coins, not individual holders.

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

Understanding Addresses Holding at Least 10 BTC

This page counts every address holding at least 10 Bitcoin: a running total of the larger end of the network, from ten coins up. It adds up all the addresses at or above that line and tracks the total over time.

The gap between addresses and people matters here: at this size many of the addresses are exchanges, funds, and companies holding the coins of large numbers of customers. So the count sits well above the number of individual owners this size, by an amount no one can pin down.

As a running total it shows how the larger tiers add up together. When it grows, more coin is sitting in big addresses; when it falls, those balances are moving or splitting. For how the very largest wallets are leaning, see Big Holder Activity.
