💰 How much real money exists in the world? The answer will surprise those who say "there's no money for Bitcoin"

Abstract generation in progress

A question many people ask themselves: what is the actual size of the global money market? Here is the breakdown:

**Physical money (banknotes and coins): Only $9 trillion. Yes, that’s right, it’s the smallest part.

Money in circulation:

  • Bank deposits + cash in accounts: approximately $100 trillion
  • Large deposits, funds, investments: approximately $150 trillion

The key difference: Then there are financial assets (stocks, bonds, derivatives, cryptocurrencies) that exceed 1 quintillion dollars. But that’s not real money; these are paper valuations.

The real money in the world ≈ $150 trillion

Who controls what?

  • 🇺🇸 United States: approximately $62 trillion (41% of the total)
  • 🇨🇳 China: approximately $16 trillion
  • 🇯🇵 Japan: approximately $6.5 trillion

The conclusion: When you see these figures, you understand why the US dollar remains the world’s reserve currency. And you understand why people who say “there’s no money for Bitcoin to grow” simply don’t see the full picture. There’s enough liquidity floating in the system to revolutionize several markets at once.

The real question is: where will that money flow in the coming years?
