With Bitcoin price rising so fast and ouch, I investigate again its market cap against those big giants in the world. As per the moment I write this post, Bitcoin has a marketcap of 293 billion US dollars.
From a source named Statista (data date is in April but still approximately usable I think), the world’s most valuable company is no surprise Apple from the US with a market cap of 752B! Well done! The 2nd one is Alphabet (aka Google) with 579.5B. Again, no surprise.
So, Bitcoin, if viewed as a company, where would it be on the list?
Number 10 now!!
Replacing Tencent from China and chasing JPMorgan #9! Even so, I assume it may @surpassinggoogle and @surpassingapple soon, although might not happen this year but definitely within one year…
It’s also interesting to compare cryptocurrency as a whole. The total marketcap is 443B. This would be #3 between Microsoft and Amazon now.
This comparison is for fun and to give you some sense about how big these coins are, but of course cryptocurrencies are very very different from companies.
If you are wondering how #2 and onward cryptocurrencies’ ranking, well, I can tell you that all of them are off the table as the last (#100) one Mitsubishi has a marketcap of 83.9B. Still twice as large as Ethereum.
For your information and leisure. ^_^
