Bitcoin has once again made history. The world’s largest cryptocurrency surpassed a market capitalization of $2.096 trillion, overtaking both Google and silver. Now, with a price just below $105,000, it sets its sights on Amazon.
Bitcoin market capitalization soars to unprecedented levels
Bitcoin’s market cap has reached a new all-time high of $2.096 trillion, placing it above both Alphabet (Google) and silver in the global asset rankings. According to data from 8marketcap, Bitcoin now ranks sixth among the world’s most valuable assets, with Alphabet at $2.028 trillion and silver at $1.844 trillion.

The BTC price has remained relatively stable, trading within a 24-hour range of $102,000 to $106,000. Despite the strong performance, Bitcoin is still trading about 3.6% below its all-time high of $108,786, recorded on January 20, 2025. However, the bullish trend continues, with gains of more than 2.5% over the past day and week.
Bitcoin’s position on the global leaderboard is remarkable. It now sits between Amazon in fifth place ($2.188 trillion) and Google in seventh. Only giants like Apple, Microsoft, and gold remain ahead of Bitcoin in terms of total value.
Will Bitcoin surpass Amazon? The race is on
The gap between Bitcoin and Amazon currently stands at just $92 billion. Should Bitcoin reclaim its previous all-time high, its market cap would climb to approximately $2.17 trillion—placing it within striking distance of the e-commerce giant.
Strong monthly growth
Bitcoin has shown impressive growth over the past 30 days. From a low of $85,000, the price has surged more than 23% to its current level around $105,000. This upward trend comes while traditional markets, including shares of Apple and Amazon, have seen modest declines.
Impact of macroeconomic factors
Part of the growing interest in Bitcoin can be attributed to macroeconomic uncertainty. Rising inflation, a weakening dollar, and increased demand for alternative assets have fueled interest in decentralized digital stores of value. Bitcoin is increasingly being viewed as “digital gold” by both retail and institutional investors.
What does this mean for Bitcoin’s future?
Crossing the $2 trillion threshold is not just a symbolic milestone—it cements Bitcoin’s status as a legitimate financial asset. In a world where central banks face tough monetary policy decisions, Bitcoin offers an alternative: scarce, transparent, and decentralized.
Still, risks remain. Bitcoin’s volatility is significant, and any sharp correction could quickly erase recent gains. In addition, regulatory discussions in the U.S. and Europe continue to evolve, which may influence short-term adoption and pricing.
Nevertheless, Bitcoin’s place among the world’s top assets is now undeniable. Surpassing Google and silver confirms that institutional investors can no longer afford to ignore it. The coming weeks will be crucial: can Bitcoin push toward $110,000 and claim Amazon’s fifth-place spot?
