TL;DR: As a result of analyzing the "Mt.Gox leak", the number of bitcoin holders is likely 1.0 millions. Of these,
* the 400 bitcoin millionaires with at least BTC2,000 hold 40% of bitcoins.
* 100,000 owners with BTC10-BTC2,000 ($5,000-$1,000,000) hold 50% of the bitcoins.
* 900,000 owners have a holding of BTC0.002-BTC10, valued at $1-$5,000, and hold 10% of the bitcoinsThis is NOT a largest addresses/wallets -list, we are talking about largest owners here. An owner can have many wallets, and a wallet can have many addresses.

| #People | #Bitcoins | #TotalBitcoins |
| 70 | BTC10k+ | 3.6M |
| 930 | BTC1k-10k | 2.2M |
| 13k | BTC100-1k | 3.0M |
| 85k | BTC10-100 | 2.3M |
| 250k | BTC1-10 | 0.8M |
| 340k | BTC0.1-1 | 0.1M |
| 230k | BTC0.01-0.1 | 0.0M |
| 90k | BTC0.002-0.01 | 0.0M |
So looking at above and doing a little more math, is it also correct to say that:
The top 1% of
BTC holders hold 48% of all
BTCs?
The top 9.8% of
BTC holders hold 93% of all
BTCs?
