Satoshi Nakaboto: ‘Winklevoss deal brings BTC trade to Samsung users in US and Canada’

by

Our 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 Stephen Hawking used to say: Let’s get this bread!

Bitcoin price

We closed the day, May 28 2020, at a price of $9,525. That’s a respectable 3.71 percent increase in 24 hours, or $340. It was the highest closing price in eight days.

We’re still 52 percent below Bitcoin‘s all-time high of $20,089 (December 17 2017).

Bitcoin market cap

Bitcoin’s market cap ended the day at $175,161,235,290. It now commands 67 percent of the total crypto market.

Bitcoin volume

Yesterday’s volume of $34,367,073,114 was the highest in six days, 50 percent above last year’s average, and 53 percent below the lastyear’s high. That means that yesterday, the Bitcoin network shifted the equivalent of 619 tons of gold.

Bitcoin transactions

A total of 151,015 transactions were conducted yesterday, which is 52 percent below last year’s average and 66 percent below last year’s high.

Bitcoin transaction fee

Yesterday’s average transaction fee concerned $1.30. That’s $2.60 below last year’s high of $3.91.

Bitcoin distribution by address

As of now, there are 13,420 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 34.9 percent.

Company with a market cap closest to Bitcoin

With a market capitalization of $175 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 $350,654 by now, according to dickline.info.

Bitcoin energy consumption

Bitcoin used an estimated 156 million kilowatt hour of electricity yesterday. On a yearly basis that would amount to 57 terawatt hour. That’s the equivalent of Bangladesh’s energy consumption or 5.3 million US households. Bitcoin’s energy consumption now represents 0.25% of the whole world’s electricity use.

Bitcoin on Twitter

Yesterday 38,537 fresh tweets about Bitcoin were sent out into the world. That’s 99.3 percent above last year’s average. The maximum amount of tweets per day last year about Bitcoin was 82,838.
