If you want to start investing in Bitcoin, you’ll need a crypto exchange to do so. Keep in mind you may owe taxes on any gains you realise. Past performance is not a predictor of future results. Purchasing Bitcoin is speculative and you may lose all of your investment.

How Many Bitcoins (BTC) Are There?


As of now, a total of 19,214,012 Bitcoins have been mined. Several million Bitcoins are thought to be inaccessible, due to holders having lost network keys or wallet passwords. There is a total maximum limit of 21 million Bitcoins that can ever be created. Given the total number of mined coins and the maximum limit, only 1,785,988 Bitcoins are left to be produced.

Analysts project that the last Bitcoin will be mined sometime around 2140. No new Bitcoins will enter circulation after this point.
