Look at all those donations to the #Bitcoin network, whether intentional or not.

Yeah, that's one way to look at it. The concept of lost coins is an interesting aspect of Bitcoin’s fixed supply. With a cap of 21 million coins, every coin that gets lost indeed makes the remaining ones slightly more scarce and potentially more valuable.

This graphic seems to illustrate different segments of the Bitcoin ecosystem, including lost coins as a significant part. It's a reminder for users to handle their private keys with care because once those bitcoins are gone, they're gone for good.

Always good to see visuals that help explain complex ideas like this; it helps spread understanding about how careful we need to be with our digital assets! Keep your keys safe!

Whats the source for this info graphic?
