Want to be rich? Bitcoin’s limited supply cap means you only need 0.01 BTC

摘要： In 10 years Bitcoin’s finite supply will be nearly exhausted, meaning holders might only need 0.01 BTC to become filthy rich.

While purchasing 0.01 Bitcoin (BTC) might cost only $500 today, current trends in global wealth distribution and the inevitable realization of Bitcoin's limited supply could result in 0.01 BTC being worth $1 million in the future.

According to Credit Suisse's "Global Wealth Report 2020", there are 51.9 million individuals with a net worth surpassing $1 million. The index considers a person's net worth, along with their financial and real estate assets, while al deducting their debts and liabilities.

Despite representing just 1% of the global population (excluding children), millionaires own 43% of the world's wealth.

According to Credit Suisse's individual wealth breakdown, 175,700 people were worth more than $50 million. Of these, 55,800 were worth at least $100 million, and 4,410 had wealth over $500 million.

When removing the 1.9 million coins that haven't been touched for over a decade from Bitcoin's supply cap, there is a maximum limit of 19.2 million BTC available for the world's millionaires. This leaves 0.37 BTC per millionaire, including the yet-to-be-mined coins, assuming Bitcoin's supply will be evenly shared between said millionaires.
