Addresses with Balance ≥ $100 counts addresses whose BTC balance multiplied by the BTC/USD price on the observation date is at least $100. The output is a number of addresses, with larger balances included, rather than their combined dollar value.
A rising count means more addresses clear the $100 line through higher BTC balances, a higher BTC price or both. The series reached about 25.27 million on October 6, 2025, when BTC was about $123,510. By October 17, 2026, the count was about 23.35 million, versus 24.45 million a year earlier, showing that this dollar-defined population can contract.
Unlike a fixed BTC threshold, the qualifying coin balance changes whenever price changes. A $100 balance is also not necessarily economical to move during high-fee periods. Address creation, wallet splitting and custodial pooling limit its use as a measure of individual adoption, and nominal dollars do not preserve the same purchasing power across years.
Divide $100 by the BTC/USD price used for that date. The required BTC balance falls as price rises and rises as price falls, so membership can change without a transfer.
No. It includes every address worth at least $100, including balances worth thousands or millions of dollars. A wallet can also contain multiple addresses.
Yes. Existing balances can cross the dollar threshold as price rises, or one owner's BTC can be split across several qualifying addresses. Neither requires a new person to enter.
