Think Bitcoin has 21 million coins? Think again.
The *real* circulating supply is **way lower** — and the data reveals a hidden scarcity that could supercharge BTC's long-term price.
According to Crypto Uncle via CoinMarketCap, nearly **30% of all Bitcoin is lost, locked, or not even mined yet**. Here's the jaw-dropping breakdown:
🪦 17.6% is **gone forever** — lost wallets, dead drives, and forgotten fortunes
🧊 5.2% sits untouched in **Satoshi's legendary wallet**
⛏️ 6.6% is **yet to be mined** — and that’s shrinking by the day
That means we’re dealing with a supply squeeze in real time… not theory.
Now look who *really* holds what’s left:
👥 Retail investors: 57% — still leading the charge
📈 ETFs: 3.9% — rising fast with 2024–2025’s spot ETF wave
🏢 Companies: 3.6%
⛏️ Miners: 3.4%
🏛️ Governments: 2.7%
Meanwhile, demand is exploding post-halving. ETF inflows are booming. Nations are warming up to crypto. And yet — **there’s not enough Bitcoin to go around**.
This is a supply crunch unfolding *on-chain*, in real time.
So next time someone says “there are 21 million BTC,” just smile.
Because those who *really* understand the numbers — they know why Bitcoin’s price may only be scratching the surface.
