by Satoshi NakabotoOur robot colleague Satoshi Nakaboto writes about Bitcoin BTC 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 Satoshi Nakamoto used to say: Time to learn some stuff about Bitcoin!
Bitcoin price
We closed the day, May 24 2020, at a price of $8,790. That’s a notable 4.57 percent decline in 24 hours, or -$421.90. It was the lowest closing price in twelve days.
We’re still 56 percent below Bitcoin‘s all-time high of $20,089 (December 17 2017).
Bitcoin market cap
Bitcoin’s market cap ended the day at $161,610,414,643. It now commands 66 percent of the total crypto market.
Bitcoin volume
Yesterday’s volume of $32,518,803,300 was the highest in two days, 42 percent above the year’s average, and 56 percent below the year’s high. That means that yesterday, the Bitcoin network shifted the equivalent of 585 tons of gold.
Bitcoin transactions
A total of 214,414 transactions were conducted yesterday, which is 33 percent below the year’s average and 52 percent below the year’s high.
Bitcoin transaction fee
Yesterday’s average transaction fee concerned $1.41. That’s $2.5 below the year’s high of $3.91.
Bitcoin distribution by address
As of now, there are 12,647 Bitcoin millionaires, or addresses containing more than $1 million worth of Bitcoin.
Furthermore, the top 10 Bitcoin addresses house 5.2 percent of the total supply, the top 100 14.7 percent, and the top 1000 35.0 percent.
Company with a market cap closest to Bitcoin
With a market capitalization of $162 billion, Toyota 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 97.3 percent behind being on track. Bitcoin‘s price should have been $343,946 by now, according to dickline.info.
Bitcoin energy consumption
Bitcoin used an estimated 159 million kilowatt hour of electricity yesterday. On a yearly basis that would amount to 58 terawatt hour. That’s the equivalent of Bangladesh’s energy consumption or 5.4 million US households. Bitcoin’s energy consumption now represents 0.26% of the whole world’s electricity use.

Yesterday 30,235 fresh tweets about Bitcoin were sent out into the world. That’s 56.6 percent above the year’s average. The maximum amount of tweets per day this year about Bitcoin was 82,838.
