How much real money circulates in the world?

Abstract generation in progress

There is a question that many ask themselves: if Bitcoin wants to grow more, is there enough money? The answer lies in the real numbers.

Breakdown of the world's money

Physical cash: Only 9 trillion dollars (bills and coins)

Money in the banking system:

  • Deposits in accounts: ~100 trillion dollars
  • Funds and large deposits: ~150 trillion dollars

Total amount of real money: Approximately 150 trillion dollars

(Note: The 1000+ trillion dollars in global financial assets are just paper valuations—stocks, bonds, derivatives. It is not real money.)

Who controls the wealth?

United States: 62 trillion dollars (~40% of the total) China: 16 trillion dollars Japan: 6.5 trillion dollars

The rest of the world shares the rest.

The argument that everyone forgets

Someone will say: “There is no money for Bitcoin to rise further.” But if you look at these numbers, there are 150 trillion dollars in circulation. Is it really a limitation of money, or a limitation of where that money decides to flow? That is the question that matters.
