The total value of the cryptocurrency market has reached an unprecedented $3.12 trillion – that’s almost as much as the total economic output of France! This incredible milestone was achieved on November 11th. The boost was partly because Bitcoin’s value shot up, hitting $89,500.
Just to put that into perspective, if the cryptocurrency market was a country, it would have the eighth largest economy in the world. Its value is only surpassed by powerhouses like the US, China, Germany, Japan, India, the UK, and France.
Bitcoin’s value alone is now over $1.77 trillion – that’s more than Spain’s total economic output according to the International Monetary Fund. The last time the cryptocurrency market was worth $3 trillion was back on November 15, 2021, just after Bitcoin reached a previous record high of $69,000. All these stats are tracked by CoinGecko, a site that follows 15,129 different types of coins from 1,149 digital currency exchanges.
What’s really amazing is that the cryptocurrency market is now worth more than Microsoft. It’s even closing in on tech giants Nvidia and Apple! On November 11th, the rise in Bitcoin’s value also pushed it to be worth more than silver.
Expectations are that Bitcoin will continue to dominate as the value of the cryptocurrency market moves towards $4 trillion. Even the founder of 10x Research, Markus Thielen, thinks Bitcoin will eventually break the $100,000 mark. That would take its total market value to nearly $2 trillion! Going forward, he also thinks some types of the digital currency Solana will do better than others, while others may not do as well as they did in the 2020-2021 boom.
Right now, you can buy a Bitcoin for about $89,478 – that’s up by 11% in just 24 hours, and it’s nearly at the $90,000 mark!
