How Many Bitcoin SV Coins Are There?

As of March 2019, there are 16,842,262 Bitcoin SV coins in circulation. This number is ever-changing and will continue to do so as more coins are mined or lost.

The total supply of Bitcoin SV is 21,000,000, meaning that just over 80% of all Bitcoin SV that will ever exist have already been mined.

The vast majority of Bitcoin SV is held by a small number of early investors and miners. According to Bitinfocharts, the top 100 addresses hold over 61% of all Bitcoin SV.

This leaves a relatively small pool of Bitcoin SV available for trading and transaction purposes.

NOTE: It is important to note that the total supply of Bitcoin SV (BSV) coins is currently unknown. As such, any attempt to estimate the total number of coins in circulation can only be speculative. Additionally, it is possible that the total supply of BSV coins may change over time, so any estimates should not be considered as definitive.

Bitcoin SV was created in November 2018 as a fork of the Bitcoin Cash blockchain. It was created in response to disagreements within the Bitcoin Cash community about the best way to scale the blockchain.

While both sides ultimately agreed to split the chain, they remained divided on the issue of which chain should retain the “Bitcoin” name. As a result, Bitcoin SV was created as a new blockchain with its own native currency (BSV).

Bitcoin SV is currently the 4th largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, with a total value of $2.6 billion.

It is also one of the most controversial cryptocurrencies due to its association with Craig Wright, who claims to be Satoshi Nakamoto (the creator of Bitcoin).
