As of 2024, it's estimated that there are between 50 to 64 million active Bitcoin holders worldwide. This is based on the number of active Bitcoin wallets, which suggests a significant level of user engagement. While hundreds of millions of wallets have been created over the years, many of them are inactive or empty. Blockchain platforms like Coinbase and Blockchain.com alone account for over 144 million wallets combined, but not all of these are currently in use.
Bitcoin continues to grow in popularity, especially in regions experiencing economic instability, with countries like the U.S., Nigeria, and Vietnam leading in adoption rates.
