There’s no exact answer. One recent estimate is that about 3-4 million bitcoins are lost forever. It is impossible to know an exact number since a lost Bitcoin looks exactly the same on the blockchain as one that is not lost. We can make some educated guesses based on how long a Bitcoin has sat in addresses unmoved.
How Many Bitcoins Are There Now in Circulation?
There are currently 18,598,893.75 bitcoins in existence. This number changes about every 10 minutes when new blocks are mined. Right now, each new block adds 6.25 bitcoins into circulation.
How Many Bitcoins Are There
The truth is, no Bitcoin is really “lost” as much as it is permanently locked away. We know where all the Bitcoins are. When we say a coin is “lost”, it is sort of like saying someone locked the coin in a box and lost the key to the box. And this box is impossible to open without the key.
How Many Bitcoins Are Mined Everyday?
144 blocks per day are mined on average, and there are 6.25 bitcoins per block. 144 x 6.25 is 900, so that’s the average amount of new bitcoins mined per day.
Mining is the method through which Bitcoin is secured
Because many miners are adding new hash power, over the last few years blocks have often been found at 9.5 minute intervals rather than 10. This creates new bitcoins faster, so on most days there are actually more than 900 new bitcoins created.
How Many Bitcoins Have Been Mined Already?
Since bitcoins can only be created by being mined, all the bitcoins in existence are all bitcoins that have been mined. The total is 18,598,893.75 BTC.
How Many Bitcoin Blocks Are There Today?
There have been 665,823 blocks mined.
How Many Millionaires Were Made From Bitcoin?
It’s impossible to know exactly. With some quick math, however, we can estimate the max number of people who are Bitcoin millionaires.
One of many VERY young Bitcoin Millionaires
With Bitcoin’s price at $33330.35, you’d need 30.00 bitcoins to be a Bitcoin millionaire in dollars. Since there are 18,598,893.75 BTC in circulation, there are a maximum of 619,908 people holding 30.00 bitcoins.
In all likelihood, the number is much lower than that and probably around 30,000-60,000 people with more than $1 million worth of bitcoins.
The outcome of this year goes the way of many other online income plans and collapses. This is a recurring theme and, during the more than 20 years I have been making money online, I have seen tens of thousands of plans, programs, schemes and scams come and go! (post by Graham Frame)
Additionally, I still see people like Dave Sharpe and Vick Streizheus and many others making millions of dollars peddling updated versions of overpriced training at the expense of the average guy. I don’t blame them, as its all they know, but it’s sad that it continues to create a 95% failure rate.
So Stop Chasing Rainbows! Start building a solid future now…..
Are you still chasing rainbows?
Chasing Rainbows
A pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.
Fortunately, I see light at the end of the tunnel in 2021 with a new breed of activity in the way that business is being done online; a way where the customer/client/member is put first and not simply a means to an end profit for the program owners.
The following are selected as being in the category of sharing love and putting the members before personal profit…..
Leading the way in this development is We Share Abundance (WSA) which teaches the path to true happiness and as a bi-product shows how financial wealth is attracted to members through service and love. There is no cost to join, nothing to buy or sell and although referring new members can be profitable, and is encouraged, it is not required to generate income. The economy of WSA is based around the WESA Token which has increased in value from $1 in April 2020, when it was first released, to around $300 market value at present. This alone represents an amazing opportunity, with the Token forecast to be in 4 digits (well over $1,500 each) by the end of this year, and members can actually earn WESA for free and, for a limited time, buy them for a fraction of their market value at just $110 each.
See inside WSAto start building your nest egg now.
Hashing Ad Space (HAS) – is a great concept but unfortunately the value of their currency is so low that it is difficult to currently generate any meaningful income. For every $100 tied up in staking you can make about 10 cents a day watching ads. So you need $1,000 to generate $30 a month income. This can be enhanced by making referrals etc. but the best bet is in accumulating and holding their ASIMI Tokens in the hope that they will increase significantly in value. No recruiting is required but it will enhance your income. Register free hereand you can start accumulating ASIMI Tokens free.
CLEAR – This is about to launch and has a massive potential on a Global Scale; you can register free and start referring people now and build your network and net worth. The compensation plan is more than generous and those who join early will be best placed to generate incomes in excess of most people’s dreams! The financial rewards are based purely on referrals. However, I think that once people learn the benefits of protecting their identity it will be an easy sale of a very competitively priced superior product that everyone uses already in an inferior way. Learn how to protect your Identity and Privacy (This video is about an hour long but everyone should watch it and learn) http://success-lifestyles.com/how-important-is-your-privacy/. You actually need this product in place of the one you use now ( its better and cheaper but even if it cost more the benefits are massive) regardless of whether or not you want to refer others! I also pledge to use any commissions I personally receive from CLEAR to enhance the liquidity and value of the WESA Token so all WSA Members should register FREE now!
OnPassive (OP) – you have probably already heard of this as its been around since June or July 2018 and still has not yet even begun pre-launch (but that is now imminent). I believe this will be a game changer for so many people and will cater for all levels of marketers and even allow 100% passive participation. The ethics behind OnPassive are in line with the ethics of WSA and I truly believe that all people looking to make money online will become members of Onpassive sooner or later, so why wait?
You can register free to stay in the loop, but best advantage is for Founder Membership currently at $97. Register here but I don’t think you will have any regrets by joining the already over 400,000 Founders ( the chance to be a Founder will soon be gone forever so grab it while you can; and as a member of WSA you even get the cost of Founder membership paid back to your US$ wallet!).

I CONFESS THAT I DON’T FULLY UNDERSTAND WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT AND HOW IT ALL WORKS (I’M NO GREAT TECHIE)….
BUT I DO KNOW THAT ITS ABOUT TIME WE TOOK A STAND AGAINST THE CURRENT INFRINGEMENT OF OUR RIGHTS, THE CENSORSHIP OF OUR THOUGHTS AND THE MANIPULATION OF OUR DATA FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE GREEDY!
THIS IS A PART OF A NEW MOVEMENT THAT IS TAKING PLACE RIGHT NOW AND WE SHARE ABUNDANCE IS AT THE HEART OF THIS MOVEMENT.

There are basically four (4) major types of bitcoin wallet. Users can choose what type of wallet depending on various criteria and purpose. Obviously the primary purpose of a typical bitcoin wallet is to store bitcoin. However some bitcoin wallet providers create the wallet to suit the desire of a user such as: Privacy, Security, level of control over wallet, fixed, modifiable or variable transaction fees, Transparency, speed of transactions, multi sig, and hardware.
The four major types or (classes) of wallets are:
Desktop wallets
Mobile wallet
Hardware wallets
Web wallets
The table below shows bitcoin wallets according to these four categories listed above.
Control over Wallet: The main purpose of having a bitcoin wallet is to send and receive bitcoin at any given time and without restrictions of whatsoever. In other words, a user should have an indefinite control over wallet. Some bitcoin wallet doesn’t have full control over because of their terms and conditions of services. Hence third parties may freeze or take away funds if users breach their terms.
Privacy: Bitcoin is easy to use and individuals may prefer to keep their transaction secret or discrete so that people are not aware of their business. Most wallets with large sums of money are sometimes monitored in the Blockchain due to the influence it may have in the forex market. Thus, spying on transactions with IP addresses and locations of individuals may be done. However, some Bitcoin wallet provides try to make user experience a degree of privacy by the ability of users to create new bitcoin addresses or rotation of addresses. Some wallet providers also have a non disclosure of information to peers on the bitcoin network. In other to resolve location privacy, the use of TOR networks or PROXY to prevent others from associating transactions with IP address are used by some bitcoin wallet providers. Others may have low KYC (Know your Customer) requirements.
Transaction Fees: Bitcoin wallets have different transactions fees. Some charge for either sending or receiving Bitcoin. While others may have variable fees for sending Bitcoins according to priority in the blockchain. Some certain wallet providers have the ability to even modify fees after it has been sent to another wallet address for faster execution/ transfer thereby making transactions confirmed earlier within a given time.
Transparency: Bitcoin is electronic money and anyone providing a means to store, send and receive it must be transparent –That is – All source codes for the wallet application should be available for the public to check, verify and appraise. Some Bitcoin Wallet provides (e.g Coinomi) is not open source and third parties may view or even manipulate the bitcoin balance and transactions. It may also have an open gateway for hackers or intruders to have access to the wallet.
Security(Validation and second factor authentication): The safety of bitcoin in any wallet cannot be over emphasized. Some Bitcoin wallet providers provide only One factor authentication (e.g. Username and password to login) while other wallet provide two or second factor authentication (e.g. use of verification code gotten by text message, email or via an app on a mobile device such as Google authenticator to access wallet.
Furthermore, some wallet providers have the ability to validate on full nodes on the bitcoin network. Consequently, third parties are not needed for processing transaction. Caution however must be taken when selecting such network as some users have been complaining about huge data usage (e.g. 6GB a day) by such bitcoin wallets even on idle mode on daily bases. The reason is wallets that fully validate transactions and blocks on its own .
The other secondary requirement include:
Hardware Wallet: There are Bitcoin wallets that connect to external or internal hardware to function properly. This has a good security feature. It is also easy to use and ECO friendly. This is a good option if QR scanning is not needed to send or receive bitcoin.
SEGWIT and Bech32: SegWit is a new technological development. It uses blockchain space more efficiently. This also have a tremendous effect on the fees paid by making transactions. The Bech32 is a special address format by SEGWIT. A feature of this technology is the LIGHTNING NETWORK which supports transferring bitcoin without having to record each transaction on the blockchain. Hence faster transaction with lower fees.
Multi- Signature (MultiSig): Some bitcoin wallet providers support multiple signatures for transactions to be done. This is widely used for corporate entities that involve multiple parties owning a fund. The use of more than one key to authorize a transaction creates a layer of security for all parties involved.
Consequently, it is advisable to check all features before using any wallet. For more information, scroll above on list of available Bitcoin wallet.

“Being and Nothingness: An Essay on Phenomenological Ontology” is a 1943 book by the philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre. In the book, Sartre develops a philosophical account in support of his existentialism, dealing with topics such as consciousness, perception, social philosophy, self-deception, the existence of “nothingness”, psychoanalysis, and the question of free will.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Being and Nothingness is regarded as both the most important non-fiction expression of Sartre’s existentialism and his most influential philosophical work, original despite its debt to Heidegger. Many have praised the book’s central notion that “existence precedes essence”, its introduction of the concept of bad faith, and its exploration of “nothingness”, as well as its novel contributions to the philosophy of sex.
Being and Nothingness is considered Sartre’s most important philosophical work, and the most important non-fiction expression of his existentialism. Christian existentialist Gabriel Marcel wrote that it was of “incontestable” importance and ranked among the most important contributions made to general philosophy. While Marcel noted the influence of Heidegger on “the form at least” of Being and Nothingness, he also observed that Sartre diverged from the views expressed by Heidegger in Being and Time (1927) in important ways, and that Sartre’s contributions were original.
Jean-Paul Sartre explored the problems and joys of being fundamentally free. Existentialism, the belief system with which he is associated, considers the anguish of freedom.
“Jean-Paul Sartre was born in 1905. His father, a navy captain, died when he was a baby – and he grew up extremely close to his mother until she remarried, much to his regret, when he was twelve. Sartre spent most of his life in Paris, where he often went to cafes on the Left Bank and sat on benches in the Jardin du Luxembourg. He had a strabismus, a wandering eye, and wore distinctive, heavy glasses. He was awarded the 1964 Nobel Prize for literature, but refused it on the grounds that the award was capitalist and bourgeois. He was very short (five feet three inches) and frequently described himself as ugly. He wore his hair vigorously brushed back. When he died in 1980 (aged 74), 50,000 people accompanied his coffin through the streets of Paris…”
But I was in too deep. I couldn’t let go now. And I was going to prove everyone wrong (read the story of Dan Lok).
I was going to show them I don’t need school. And that I CAN be a successful investor and entrepreneur.
When I was getting started in business, I jumped straight into the riskiest investment you can think of.
You see, in my late teens, I met this guy across the hall from us…
(Yeah, that’s right – it’s one of these stories.)
And after we talked a little bit here and there, he said to me:
“Hey Daniel, wanna start a business with me? I can build it, I just need some help with capital – you in?”
“Yeah sure, let’s do it!”
But I couldn’t have been more stupid…
I managed to find a couple thousand bucks to start funding this project.
But after a few weeks went by, I got this:
“Daniel, we’ve got a problem, I don’t have any more capital to make this work. We need more money…”
So he got me to find more…
And after I did that, the same thing happened again a couple weeks later.
“Sorry man, we needed more than I expected. You have any more…?”
And so I just kept pouring money into this thing. Into this big hole.
The more I gave him, the easier it became…
And soon I was borrowing from my relatives, my mom, and anyone that I could think of.
You know those guys that always have some shady deal to offer you?
Yeah, that was me when talking to basically anyone I knew.
To make things worse, I would justify what I was doing…
“I am an investor – business is all about risks…”
And then it happened.
I asked him for the status, and looking at me, he said:
“Man we’re so so close now, we’re just one week away from being done. But we still need probably around $5000 more.”
So I said.
“Okay, let me see what I can do.”
And that’s when I did something shameful.
Something I don’t even really want to talk about…
(But you need to hear this.)
I dragged my mom by the hand to the bank to bring out the LAST bit of our savings…
“Daniel NO! Please don’t do this.”
But like I already told you. I was in it too deep.
I couldn’t let go now.
And so I got him the money…
“This’ll work. Thanks Dan.”
*His Door Closes Shut*
And that was the end of the conversation…
That night, I felt sick in my gut.
This wasn’t how I was supposed to feel before making it big.
It was supposed to be exciting.
“I had done something no one else was prepared to do.”
“This is the price of success, right?”
But when I went to find out the status in the morning. He had already gone…
Vanished.
Disappeared.
…
I was so angry.
I had been scammed. And not just me. I had dragged my whole family with me into this mess – and scammed them for all of their savings.
I had shamed everyone.
All because of my greed and my desperation…
And it took me years to recover from that stupid “investment”.
I thought I was being smart, I thought I was being clever and determined.
But I was just being an arrogant idiot.
You may say I was naive, or that I didn’t have a High-Income Skill.
Or even that I shouldn’t be using other people’s money…
But here’s the biggest lesson I learnt from that.

Never Invest In What You Don’t Understand
I can tell you right now, almost every investment I made that I didn’t understand – failed terribly.
And that’s why my number one rule for investing is only invest in what you do understand.
Because when you don’t understand what you’re doing, you might as well be gambling.
You might as well throw your money away like I did when I was in my late teens…
Now if you’re new to investing and you have a bit of savings put aside to invest, the best thing you could do is invest that into yourself.
That’s right. Invest it in yourself.
When I look back on all the investments I’ve made over the years, the ones that made the biggest difference were not the real estate properties or businesses I invested in…
No. The investments that made all the difference were the events I went to.
The books I read.
And all the courses I spent hours on every single night.
So why not do the same yourself?
Buy some books on investing. Go attend some special events. And take some courses on investing.
You’ve got nothing to lose, but everything to gain.
And you’ll always look back on these investments as some of the best you’ve ever made.
Most people want to know how the law of attraction really works, because they think it will magically give them success and abundance. That’s not the truth. And that’s why in this video, Dan Lok breaks down how the law of attraction really works and how to use it to create the life you desire for yourself and your loved ones.
