Can the price of BTC be manipulated by minors? for example if they all decide together to sell every btc the create to lower the price.
max amount of BTC : 21'000'000 - gift for mining a block 25 BTC - one block mined approximativly every 10 minutes >>> 1'300'000 BTC mined every year - if one or a few organization mined every blocks for one year it could possess at term around 15% of total BTCs – smoumou – 2016-06-10T16:05:43.683
1Since all bitcoin originates as a mining reward...100% of all bitcoin in existence was at one point collected by miners. Are you instead asking about mining centralization? – Jestin – 2016-06-10T16:23:16.300
Technically... more than 100% all bitcoin in existence was collected by miners, since (1) sum of tx fees in all blocks > 0 and (2) bitcoin has no block reward penalty :P – user36303 – 2016-06-10T21:15:42.817
This question is not clear at all. as others have already stated, all bitcoins originate from mining. Please clarify your question. – Murch – 2016-06-11T08:59:24.227
