Michael Saylor highlights Bitcoin's fixed supply of 21 million coins
Estimated 6 million BTC are lost, locked, or held by MicroStrategy and the US government
Approximately 15 million BTC are realistically available on the open market
With 60 million millionaires globally, available Bitcoin may be insufficient.
Deep Dive
Michael Saylor, Chairman of Strategy, recently emphasized the inherent scarcity of Bitcoin, stating on X (formerly Twitter) that "There isn’t enough Bitcoin for everyone." This assertion highlights a key characteristic of the cryptocurrency that distinguishes it from traditional fiat currencies.
Bitcoin's total supply is capped at 21 million coins. Currently, approximately 19.99 million BTC are in circulation, leaving only about 1.01 million BTC yet to be mined. This limited supply is a fundamental aspect of Bitcoin's design.
As of March 1, Strategy, under Saylor's leadership, holds 720,737 BTC, acquired at an average price of approximately $75,985 per Bitcoin, totaling about $54.77 billion.
Crypto analyst Lark Davis engaged with Saylor's statement, agreeing that there may not be enough Bitcoin for the global population. Davis pointed out that the actual available supply is significantly lower than the 21 million cap.
He estimates that around 3.7 million BTC may be permanently lost due to forgotten passwords or inaccessible wallets. Additionally, an estimated 1.1 million BTC belonging to Satoshi Nakamoto have remained untouched for 15 years. Strategy's holdings of over 720,000 BTC and 328,000 BTC locked in the U.S. Strategic Reserve (which cannot be sold by executive order) further reduce the available supply.
Davis suggests that approximately six million BTC are effectively unavailable. Considering these factors, he estimates the amount of Bitcoin realistically available on the open market to be around 15 million coins. With an estimated 60 million millionaires globally, if each desired just one Bitcoin, the supply would be insufficient, even before considering the rest of the world's population.
