    The total supply is 21 million. But a lot has been lost due to people losing their keys.

    How much is difficult to measure, but you can probably take 20% off that number and be somewhat safe.

      True. There are some pretty good effort estimates out there, idk what they are, but there are definitely some lost keys.
