No I'm not in a race at all, I am just ticking along buying when I can, selling
when I need to.

Youre free to do whatever you wants to do. No one force you to buy bitcoin.

The analysis above is kind of nonsensical because not everyone wants to own
Bitcoin, some have more than 1, more than 10, more than 50 already. I dont care
how much everyone in the world would get if Bitcoin was hypothetically redistributed.

What made you think it's nonsensical? According to you Bitcoin itself is nonsensical cause it will lose it's value if people won't put their trust and money on it. I didn't forced to everyone that you should have own Bitcoin. It's seems like you miss judge my topic and post. Why the negativity towards a post, why don't you see the bright side. I was trying to send the message that if you're starting holding from now you're already ahead of 90% people. The future is promising , if you can't get the vision up ahead of you you'll fall behind.
If you're defending it, then I would say Bitcoin itself is a nonsensical digital currency back then 2009- 2013.

The only limit to what anyone can own is based on their wealth, how much FIAT
they have or are willing to ditch to own Bitcoin.

Yes definitely it's someones capabilities that's why big holders not even selling their a single bitcoin, but every day trying to buy the bitcoin. If you think you're too late to buy, falling behind It's just a reminder from me how much you're ahead of rest of the people in world if anyone wants to even start this time.

I do not know why people are wasting their effort by creating hypothetical guesses when it was already known that Bitcoin won't be distributed evenly due to the fact that pioneer had already gain much Bitcoin whie majority of the global population does not even plan on buying Bitcoin nor have the capacity to own even a quarter of it.

Every single person do know about this that this isn't possible to distribute evenly and not everyone is planning to buy Bitcoin. So elon musk is an average person from the rest of world?
If you've already madeout to this forum you have the capacity to stand from the rest of the world. I'm spreading this to made know all the people's who have interest or have talent. Everything starts with hypothetical, even Bitcoin it self starts with the vision to have transaction made easy among pioneer to pioneer. Eventually did we use that vision satosi had seen us? We're now dealing bitcoin as a digital gold.

but it's interesting to see that if you have a little over 0.015 BTC, you're holding more Bitcoin than 90% of all addresses. It's no use, but fascinating nonetheless

Exactly it's the curiosity, persons fantasy to made a person unique from the rest of the world . That's what I tried to showed of all people. But I think I should have more clear on my vision and break it myself , since there everyone can't try to get this by themselves.

I'm personally no longer in a race to accumulate as much as possible, the more the better, but I'm just accustomed with the idea that it's very unlikely to ever acquire a whole coin.

It's not a 100meter race, it's a long Marathon. By race I meant you should have atleast start , rest of part is upto you in which pace you wants to end this or you can able to end this race

There's 3.7M lost BTC according to Chainalysis, and most likely they can't be recovered either

That's quite a large amount, and a sad truth is that it will persist as long as there are holders who pass away while holding Bitcoin. I believe this data should increase year by year, as those coins are lost due to forgotten wallets or lost private keys, making recovery practically impossible

And it will increase overtime, I don't know how put this as a blessing or sad cause we lost a lot of supply. By losing a large amount it will easy to manipulate whales and big industies. But it can go Bitcoin more upwards also for this.

Do you want to know how much I own right now in my wallet? It's $5. Cheesy

I'm not in a rush to own BTC.
Life goes on regardless, and I’d prefer to avoid the stress of buying at a high price only to see it drop during a market correction. Patience feels better than rushing into a potentially overpriced purchase, and honestly, I’m not really concerned about the numbers, it's just an assumption.

It's good to see atleast you're on the track , feel comfortable to buy since it's not a thing you can achive by overnight.

No need to make it a goal or something though imo. I mean it's all just statistics anyway, just own what you can.

Yes my message was just be on the track and some people may found owning some bitcoin won't be any good , this statistics for that reason to explain it all.
