Bitcoin has surpassed Google in market capitalization: what does this really mean?
According to recent data, BTC's market capitalization has exceeded that of Google, placing it 5th among the largest assets in the world. This is not just a symbolic victory. It is a clear signal: Bitcoin is no longer merely an 'alternative' and is becoming the core of the global financial system.
This achievement is the result of a long-term paradigm shift: from distrust of state currencies to digital assets with limited issuance. And this is not hype, but a structural phenomenon.
In my opinion: BTC will not stop at the fifth place. On the strategic horizon, it claims not just the status of 'digital gold', but a new form of global reserve asset. Given the trends of dedollarization and the growth of institutional demand, Bitcoin has every chance of surpassing even Apple in the next 3–5 years.
The question is no longer whether BTC will become mainstream.
The question is who will manage to get in before it fully becomes so.
