Bitcoin Dethrones Amazon as 5th Largest Asset–Is Apple Next?

Bitcoin (BTC) is currently the fifth most valuable asset in the world and has once again overtaken Amazon in terms of market valuation. At $2.130 trillion, Bitcoin’s market value is currently slightly more than Amazon’s.

This milestone is one of Bitcoin’s larger emergences into the mainstream financial sector. It’s not a technology fad anymore — it’s battling the world’s biggest companies and commodities. Bitcoin has recovered nicely since April 7, setting a new all-time high (ATH) of $109,458 today.

Bitcoin has finally reached the elite group of assets such as gold, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Apple to demonstrate its increasing significance in the world economy. Interestingly, this is not the first occasion when Bitcoin has flipped Amazon. BTC performed the same achievement for the very first time on May 9, 2025, when BTC first surpassed Amazon’s market value of $3.26 trillion.

With increased institutional investment and increasing usage as an inflation hedge, Bitcoin may soon outrank Apple’s $3 trillion market cap to stand at the 4th largest asset in the world—a first for a decentralized digital currency.

Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, responded sharply to recent economic indications. Speaking about a recent U.S. Treasury auction of bonds that supposedly did not entice buyers, he sounded the alarm, “The Fed quietly purchased $50 billion of its own false money using false money.”

“The party is over,” he remarked.  The arrival of hyperinflation portends financial ruin for millions.  On the other hand, he believes that tangible assets would thrive, predicting that gold will reach $25,000, silver will reach $70, and Bitcoin will reach between $500,000 and $1 million.

If Kiyosaki’s BTC price targets materialize, the market cap could surge beyond $10 trillion. Then, it could not only surpass Apple but also overtake Nvidia and Microsoft, the other tech behemoths on the list.
