If we only wanted to track the current unspent outputs we're sitting at 54M which interestingly has been holding relatively constant since June. Where as the total number of transactions (size of blockchain in general) is at 240M and is strictly monotonically increasing.
See UTXO here: https://blockchain.info/charts/utxo-count https://blockchain.info/charts/utxo-count
See total TX here: https://blockchain.info/charts/n-transactions-total https://blockchain.info/charts/n-transactions-total
Every block for the near future will include one new UTXO, but it can increase, decrease or keep the total number of UTXO the same.
