When crypto surpasses the entire world: the global asset ranking shows the reality

Main takeaway: gold ($18.29 trillion) is still king, but the spectrum of power is changing rapidly.

The Triad of Monopolists

America owns the overwhelming majority of global wealth:

• Apple ($3,555 trillion) — slightly below Germany's GDP
• NVIDIA ($3,340 trillion) — architect of the AI revolution
• Microsoft ($3.115 trillion) — a rider of cloud computing

The trio is worth $10 trillion. This is more than the total market capitalization of all companies in China and Russia.

Crypto in the Rankings: Modest but Ambitious

Bitcoin ranked 7th ( $1.868 trillion ) — above Saudi Aramco. This is a giant leap for an asset that is only 16 years old. Silver ( ranked 9th, $1.766 trillion ) barely surpassed BTC.

Key question: If BTC continues to grow at the same rate, when will it surpass TSMC? TSMC is worth $1.079 trillion. At a 50% annual growth rate, BTC will take 1.5 years.

Structure of Global Capital

Top-10 assets: 6 of them are American stocks, 2 precious metals, 1 crypto, 1 Saudi oil. No diversification = no safety.

Top-25: American dominance is absolute. Only TSMC (Taiwan) is in the top-12, Tencent (China) barely made it into the top-25.

What does this mean for the investor?

1. Concentration of Risks — a handful of companies hold a critical mass of global wealth
2. Technology vs materials — IT is capitalized 5-10 times more than its actual value ( can be bubble)
3. Crypto on the Rise — BTC has already surpassed the oil and gas sector and is ready to take on tech giants.

Conclusion: if you still think that crypto is a niche asset for hobbies, take another look at these numbers. Bitcoin is already part of the global top 10.
