Bitcoin surpasses Amazon in market capitalization, reaching $2.045 trillion and a price of $104K.
Amazon is advised to adopt a Bitcoin treasury strategy as BTC becomes increasingly influential in the institutional market.
Bitcoin [BTC] has broken the $100K threshold once again, reaching $104K after weeks of downward pressure.
According to the latest data from CoinMarketCap, BTC is trading at $103,234.98 at the time of publication, up 3.67% daily and 33.63% over the last month.
The most notable highlight is probably Bitcoin achieving a new milestone, officially surpassing Amazon in market capitalization.
Bitcoin surpasses Amazon
On May 9, the value of Bitcoin reached $2.045 trillion, surpassing Amazon's $2.039 trillion.
Although Amazon's stock continues to rise, trading at $192.08 with an increase of 1.79%, Bitcoin's growth is not just a price surge.
This move also helped BTC surpass the market capitalization of silver, Alphabet (Google's parent company), and Meta, becoming the fifth largest asset in the world by market capitalization, according to CompanyMarketCap.
Commenting on this issue, Sina G., co-founder and COO of 21st Capital, stated,
"Bitcoin has just surpassed Amazon to become the fifth largest asset in the world.
– No CEO
– No headquarters
– No marketing team
Just code, trust, and global demand. Next stop: NVIDIA.

Once considered a risky investment, Bitcoin now stands alongside traditional financial powerhouses, demonstrating its transformation into a mainstream store of value.
The development process of Bitcoin
That said, this is not the first time Bitcoin has challenged the dominance of tech giants.
Back in April 2025, it temporarily surpassed both Amazon and Google with a value of $1.86 trillion, reaching $94,000 per coin amid easing US-China trade tensions and leading technology markets.
However, the latest surge beyond $100,000 appears to be much more solid, with Bitcoin surpassing its previous peak and asserting its position among the most valuable assets in the world, especially after temporarily reaching $109,000 during President Trump's inauguration in January 2025.
Needless to say, Bitcoin's explosive surge has not only changed trader sentiment; it has also sparked broader discussions within major corporations.
In fact, with nearly $1 billion liquidated and over 190,000 traders caught off guard, the market is experiencing the most significant short squeeze since 2021, according to recent analysis from CoinGlass.

Amazon considers adding Bitcoin
Therefore, as BTC continues to assert itself as a dominant financial asset, even traditional players are starting to take notice.
Notably, in December 2024, Amazon was pressured by the National Center for Public Policy Research to consider adopting a Bitcoin treasury strategy.
This proposal urges the tech giant to allocate a portion of its $88 billion reserves to BTC, highlighting how the growth of this cryptocurrency is beginning to influence decisions in the boardroom and long-term financial strategy.
