The chart above shows that these addresses have processed more than $139 million in transactions since January 2010.
Interestingly, many of the smallest addresses are relatively new, with nine of the top ten having received their first transaction after March 2023. The newest address in the top 100 has only been around for five months.
The largest of these addresses is a wallet controlled by cryptocurrency exchange Huobi. It holds 12.46 BTC, worth about $792,000 at current rates. This address has conducted more than 1.59 million transactions, accounting for 0.77% of all Bitcoin transactions.

78 of these addresses belong to F2Pool, a Bitcoin mining pool. The largest of these addresses holds 2.47 BTC worth approximately $172,737. The remainder are believed to belong to a mixture of retail and institutional investors, and it is almost impossible to distinguish between the two.
According to BitInfoCharts, 82 of the top 100 addresses have not seen a single transaction enter or leave a wallet in 2024.
Number of addresses holding Bitcoin
The number of Bitcoin wallets is continuously increasing, with an increase of up to 5.5% of total addresses since the beginning of the year. According to data from Glassnode, there were approximately 1.3 million Bitcoin wallets as of July 14.
Considering that some of them are inactive, inaccessible, or simply empty, the number of active Bitcoin wallets with an available (non-zero) balance narrows to around 44 million addresses.

Non-zero addresses refer to accounts with a balance greater than zero, indicating active participation and interaction with the Bitcoin blockchain. This number has been steadily increasing over the past year, showing growing confidence in the network and the overall strength of the cryptocurrency ecosystem.
This is a positive indicator for Bitcoin's future trajectory and potential for wider adoption.
“dustiest” wallets in this context refer to Bitcoin wallets that contain very small amounts of Bitcoin, often referred to as “dust”. These are wallets that have amounts so small that they are almost insignificant, but when added together their total value can be significant. These wallets are often little or not used, but still exist and can contain small amounts of Bitcoin.
