Number of Bitcoin Addresses Holding at Least 1 BTC Hits New ATH – Ethereum World News

Quick take:

The month of September has been a turbulent one for Bitcoin in the crypto markets. The month started off with BTC breaking the $12k ceiling only to drop below $10k on numerous occasions before leveling off at current levels above $10,200.

However, the constant volatility of Bitcoin has not swayed investors from owning more BTC. According to the team at Glassnode, the number of Bitcoin addresses holding at least 1 BTC has grown continuously over the years. Known as wholecoiners, their numbers recently hit a new all-time high value of 823,000. The team at Glassnode shared their observation via the following tweet.

Connecting the dots, an increment of bitcoin addresses holding at least one Bitcoin is proof that investors are continually confident that BTC is a store of value. The concept of Bitcoin as a store of value, or digital gold, has been explored numerous times by crypto enthusiasts and analysts with the most recent being Tyler Winklevoss who explained why this was so.

Bitcoin is not just a scarce commodity, its the only known commodity in the universe that has a deterministic andfixedsupply. As a result, bitcoin is not subject to any of the potential positive supply shocks that gold (or any commodity for that matter) may face in the future.

Bitcoin is the first commodity in the universe where supplydoes notfollow demand. Demand for bitcoin does not, and cannot, expand its supply.

Beyond superior supply attributes, bitcoin possesses all of the other characteristics that make gold valuable and actually performsbetteron a side-by-side comparison.

The concept of owning at least one Bitcoin was also discussed in a recent episode of the Joe Rogan experience featuring Adam Curry. This episode of the famous podcast has been shared widely in the crypto-verse and can be found on youtube. The particular section of the podcast talking about owning at least one Bitcoin can be found in the following tweet.
