⚡️🌍 DATA - Visualizing Scarcity: What Does 21 Million Actually Mean?
Bitcoin’s fixed supply of 21 million is often discussed in abstract terms. Let’s bring it back down to Earth, literally.
Earth’s total surface area: 510 million km². Now imagine this surface represents 21,000,000 Bitcoin.
👀 Let’s break it down:
- 1 BTC = Tuvalu (~26 km²) 🇹🇻
- 10 BTC = Palau (~459 km²) 🇵🇼
- 100 BTC = Luxembourg (~2,586 km²) 🇱🇺
- 1,000 BTC = North Macedonia (~25,700 km²) 🇲🇰
- 10,000 BTC = United Kingdom (~243,000 km²) 🇬🇧
- 210,000 BTC = Kazakhstan (~2.7 million km²) 🇰🇿
- 393,000 BTC = USA or China (~9.8 million km²) 🇺🇸 🇨🇳
- 703,000 BTC = Russia (~17 million km²) 🇷🇺
- 7,000,000 BTC = Entire land surface of Earth 🌍
💬 So if you start from this principle, if you own 1 BTC, you’re effectively holding a piece of Earth the size of a sovereign island.
And since #Bitcoin is the only digital asset that is genuinely decentralized and genuinely secure, this is the only planet that will ever matter in the digital space.
You’re not just holding a coin, you’re holding digital plot of land on a finite map. In a world rushing to reprice scarcity, this is the only plot that can't be inflated, copied, or confiscated.
There won't be another Earth.
There won't be another Bitcoin.
