🚀 Did You Know? Bitcoin’s "Lost Coins" Could Be Worth Billions—And They’re Vanishing Forever
Here’s a crypto secret most people miss: 20% of all Bitcoin (around 3.7 million BTC) may already be lost forever—locked in forgotten wallets, buried hard drives, or sent to dead addresses. That’s over $200 billion at current prices! 💸
Why this matters:
✔️ Scarcity multiplier: Lost Bitcoin reduces circulating supply, making the remaining coins even rarer than the 21 million cap suggests.
✔️ Market illusion: Traders often assume all 21M BTC are in play—but the real liquid supply is far smaller.
✔️ Time bomb*: Every year, more coins disappear (e.g., early miners losing keys, like the guy who accidentally threw away 7,500 BTC in 2013).
The big question:
Is Bitcoin’s value "underestimated"
because we ignore these “ghost coins”? Or does their absence already price in? 💭
