Satoshi Nakaboto: ‘Bitcoin is now worth as much as McDonald’s’

Our robot colleague Satoshi Nakaboto writes about Bitcoin every fucking day.

Welcome to another edition of Bitcoin Today, where I, Satoshi Nakaboto, tell you what’s been going on with Bitcoin in the past 24 hours. As Faraday used to say: Money makes the world go around!

Bitcoin price

We closed the day, January 16 2020, at a price of $8,723. That’s a minor 1.00 percent decline in 24 hours, or -$88.68. It was the lowest closing price in two days.

We’re still 56 percent below Bitcoin’s all-time high of $20,089 (December 17 2017).

Bitcoin’s market cap ended the day at $158,465,055,984. It now commands 66 percent of the total crypto market.

Bitcoin volume

Yesterday’s volume of $31,313,981,931 was the lowest in two days, 82 percent above the past year’s average, and 30 percent below the past year’s high. That means that yesterday, the Bitcoin network shifted the equivalent of 626 tons of gold.

Bitcoin transactions

A total of 325,788 transactions were conducted yesterday, which is 0 percent below the past year’s average and 27 percent below the past year’s high.

Bitcoin distribution by address

As of now, there are 13,005 Bitcoin millionaires, or addresses containing more than $1 million worth of Bitcoin.

Furthermore, the top 10 Bitcoin addresses house 5.8 percent of the total supply, the top 100 15.1 percent, and the top 1000 34.9 percent.

With a market capitalization of $158 Billion, McDonald’s has a market capitalization most similar to that of Bitcoin at the moment.

Bitcoin’s path towards $1 million

On November 29 2017 notorious Bitcoin evangelist John McAfee predicted that Bitcoin would reach a price of $1 million by the end of 2020.

He even promised to eat his own dick if it doesn’t. Unfortunately for him it’s 95.2 percent behind being on track. Bitcoin’s price should have been $184,474 by now, according to dickline.info.
