What accounts for the scarcity of Collectible Numbers?

Firstly, by their limited quantity (136,566).

Secondly, the number of Telegram users is already more than 900 million, i.e. one number for more than 6,500 people.

Thirdly, every month the number of owners of just 1 number grows by an average of 682 people. They buy numbers primarily for personal use, not for sale or auction. This means that 682 numbers are withdrawn from the market per month, which increases the rarity even more!

Fourthly, there were 44,799 total number holders (32,8% of unique owners) as of October 15, 2024, and more than 61,500 accounts registered with Collectible Numbers. This suggests that some people buy multiple numbers for family, friends or business use. But the main difference is made by the rental services. Thanks to our service alone, as of October 15, 2024, 511 numbers (0.37% of 136,566) of all types have been rented out! The numbers for which accounts are registered are taken out of the market, aren't being traded, thus increasing their scarcity.

Fifthly, over time, people may lose access to their wallets, forget a seed phrase, or simply leave the world. The numbers of such owners also leave the market, increasing the scarcity.
