Bitcoin Adoption Increases As Wallet Addresses Surge
Cryptocurrencies have demonstrated resilience and integration into global financial systems, with the US’s approval of the first spot Bitcoin ETFs in 2024 significantly increasing investor investments.
The growing adoption of Bitcoin is evident in the increase in wallet addresses holding at least $1 worth of BTC.
By May 2024, 84 million wallet addresses held at least $1 worth of BTC, representing around 1% of the world’s 8.1 billion people.
This increase is partly due to the significant rise in Bitcoin’s price, which has gained over 66% in value since the beginning of the year.
Factors driving Bitcoin investment include the ongoing market boom and bullish predictions about the fourth Bitcoin block reward halving.
