INDIVIDUALS STILL CONTROL THE MAJORITY OF THE #BITCOIN SUPPLY 👀 ✊

A new supply distribution estimate from On-Chain Mind shows individual holders controlling 65.7% of Bitcoin’s reachable supply, or roughly 13.7 million BTC.

According to this estimate, spot ETFs and corporate treasuries combined hold just 11.7% of Bitcoin’s 21 million supply.

In other words 👉 Bitcoin is still overwhelmingly held by individuals. 🟠

That matters because the narrative often makes it sound like institutions have taken over the market.

They have not.

✅ Institutions are growing
✅ ETFs are growing
✅ Corporate treasuries are growing

And Bitcoin’s ownership structure is still deeply rooted in individual holders, self-custody, long-term conviction, and people choosing to save outside the traditional system.

That is one of Bitcoin’s most powerful features.

The institutions are arriving, but the people still dominate the network. 👏
