    The total supply of bitcoins at present is 21 million. This is the maximum number of bitcoins that will ever be created. As of now, a significant portion of this supply has already been mined and is in circulation. However, it's important to note that not all bitcoins are actively being traded or used. Some may be lost or held by individuals as investments.

    Currently, there are 18.7 million bitcoins in circulation. This means that around 89% of the total supply has already been mined. The remaining bitcoins will be gradually released through the mining process until the total supply reaches 21 million. It's worth mentioning that the rate at which new bitcoins are created decreases over time, following a predetermined schedule.

    According to the latest data, the total supply of bitcoins is 21 million. However, it's important to note that this number does not represent the number of bitcoins in circulation at any given moment. The actual number of bitcoins in circulation can vary as bitcoins are constantly being mined and traded. Additionally, some bitcoins may be lost or held in wallets that are not actively participating in transactions.
