What this map can’t tell you
- ·Reachable (listening) nodes only — non-listening, NAT, and pruned nodes are uncounted, so this undercounts the real network.
- ·Tor .onion nodes have no country and are excluded from the map — usually a majority of reachable nodes.
- ·Many nodes run on cloud / VPS, inflating data-centre countries: this is hosting geography, not operator geography.
- ·Nodes are verification infrastructure — this is NOT a map of mining, holdings, or ownership.
- ·The flickering arcs are illustrative network activity — not transaction data (transaction geography isn’t on the chain).

State-held coins only — seizures, treasury buys, state mining. Not the total Bitcoin held by a country’s people or firms, which the chain can’t reveal (addresses carry no nationality). Figures are estimates and vary by tracker; USD at $62,300/BTC (Fortune / CoinDesk, 2026-06-23).
