Spend $420 on Bitcoin
There are 8.2 billion people (2025). There is an estimated 5.5 billion bank accounts with non-zero balances. Here’s some math: At least 0.01 BTC per account 5,500,000,000 × 0.01 = 55,000,000 BTC Result: 55 million BTC Problem: More than 2.6× the total supply of Bitcoin (21 million BTC) — not possible. At least 0.1 BTC per account 5,500,000,000 × 0.1 = 550,000,000 BTC Result: 550 million BTC Problem: Over 26× the total supply of Bitcoin — extremely unrealistic and highlights the scarcity. Conclusion: Even 0.01 BTC per global bank account is over 2.5× more Bitcoin than actually exists, showing that Bitcoin’s scarcity makes widespread equal distribution at meaningful levels mathematically impossible. .01 BTC ≈ $1300 CAD To find how much Bitcoin each of the 5.5 billion accounts could hold if the entire 21 million BTC were evenly distributed: Calculation: 21,000,000 BTC ÷ 5,500,000,000 accounts = 0.003818 BTC/account Final Answer: Each account could hold approximately 0.00382 BTC (or 382,000 satoshis) if Bitcoin were evenly distributed across all active bank accounts in the world. That’s roughly $420 CAD Go get your share of Bitcoin for under $500 CAD while you can. submitted by /u/TegridyWackyTobaccy [link] [comments]
There are 8.2 billion people (2025). There is an estimated 5.5 billion bank accounts with non-zero balances.
Here’s some math:
At least 0.01 BTC per account
5,500,000,000 × 0.01 = 55,000,000 BTC Result: 55 million BTC
Problem: More than 2.6× the total supply of Bitcoin (21 million BTC) — not possible.
At least 0.1 BTC per account
5,500,000,000 × 0.1 = 550,000,000 BTC
Result: 550 million BTC
Problem: Over 26× the total supply of Bitcoin — extremely unrealistic and highlights the scarcity.
Conclusion: Even 0.01 BTC per global bank account is over 2.5× more Bitcoin than actually exists, showing that Bitcoin’s scarcity makes widespread equal distribution at meaningful levels mathematically impossible. .01 BTC ≈ $1300 CAD
To find how much Bitcoin each of the 5.5 billion accounts could hold if the entire 21 million BTC were evenly distributed:
Calculation:
21,000,000 BTC ÷ 5,500,000,000 accounts = 0.003818 BTC/account
Final Answer:
Each account could hold approximately 0.00382 BTC (or 382,000 satoshis) if Bitcoin were evenly distributed across all active bank accounts in the world.
That’s roughly $420 CAD
Go get your share of Bitcoin for under $500 CAD while you can.
