  Back in 2017, there were about 16.7 million bitcoins in circulation. This number represents the total supply of bitcoins that had been mined up until that point. It's worth mentioning that the total supply of bitcoins is limited to 21 million, and the remaining bitcoins are gradually being mined over time. So, in 2017, around 4.3 million bitcoins were yet to be mined.

  According to available data, the total number of bitcoins in circulation in 2017 was around 16.7 million. This figure represents the cumulative number of bitcoins that had been mined and were actively being used in transactions. It's interesting to note that the rate at which new bitcoins are mined decreases over time, which means that the remaining bitcoins will be mined at a slower pace compared to the earlier years. As of 2017, there were approximately 4.3 million bitcoins left to be mined.
