  • Bitcoin’s market cap is now over $1 trillion higher than Ethereum’s at $1.35 trillion.
  • Analysts believe Bitcoin still has significant room for growth, despite its recent surge.
  • Bitcoin reached $68,000 for the first time since July, sparking renewed market interest.

Bitcoin’s total market capitalization has soared to $1.35 trillion, making it over $1 trillion larger than Ethereum’s, which currently sits at $318.32 billion. This increase, driven by an 8.9% rise in Bitcoin’s value since October 12, has led analysts to suggest there could be more growth ahead for the leading cryptocurrency. As Bitcoin’s price hovers above $68,000, it has widened its market cap lead over Ethereum, hitting a new high in the process. Glassnode analyst James Check pointed out on October 19 that this gap has reached an all-time high. The last time Bitcoin’s market cap exceeded $1.34 trillion was in July, with its highest-ever market cap recorded at $1.41 trillion in May.

With Bitcoin now ranked tenth among the largest global assets, sitting just behind Meta Platforms and ahead of Berkshire Hathaway, many market participants see room for further expansion.

Analysts Project More Growth for Bitcoin

Crypto experts remain optimistic about Bitcoin’s future. Some, including Bitcoin maximalist Fred Krueger, foresee Bitcoin’s market cap reaching $100 trillion by 2040. Others, like Dylan LeClair, echoed this sentiment, labeling Bitcoin a “$100 trillion idea” during a recent Fox Business interview. With comments from figures like BlackRock CEO Larry Fink comparing Bitcoin to early-stage financial innovations, confidence in its continued upward trajectory is growing.

Some traders have noted that, despite Bitcoin’s recent rise, there are no major signs of overvaluation in the market yet, further supporting the notion of continued long-term growth.
