Bitcoin Surpasses Amazon to Become the World’s 5th Largest Asset
Bitcoin has officially overtaken Amazon in market capitalization, reaching a new milestone as the fifth-largest asset globally. As of this week, Bitcoin’s market cap surged to approximately $2.199 trillion, surpassing Amazon’s $2.135 trillion valuation. This achievement comes as Bitcoin’s price touched ATH at $111,880, reflecting a year-to-date gain of over 16% while Amazon’s shares have declined by about 8% in the same period.
Now, Bitcoin stands behind only gold, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Apple in the global asset rankings. This rapid ascent highlights Bitcoin’s transformation from a niche digital experiment—launched with a simple whitepaper—into a mainstream financial powerhouse. The surge has been fueled by growing institutional adoption, robust ETF inflows, and increasing recognition of Bitcoin as a store of value.
Bitcoin’s journey from a whitepaper to a $2 trillion+ asset underscores its impact on the financial world and signals its growing role in the portfolios of investors and institutions worldwide.
