Recent market data shows that Bitcoin surpassed Google and became the sixth largest asset in the world by market capitalization. Its value now is $2.12 trillion, excluding Google’s $2.07 trillion. That shift has attracted equal attention to financial desks and crypto chats.
Bitcoin is rising beyond Google
Based on the latest data, the Bitcoin climb above Google reflects more than just a bump in price. It shows how the token, born in 2009, can measure the high-tech giant that began at Silicon Valley Garage.
While Google remains the power of search, advertising and AI, Bitcoin’s network values rank just below Gold, Nvidia, Microsoft, Apple and Amazon.
The comparison is not perfect – one coin in circulation, the other stocks are unpaid stocks, but the headlines are difficult to ignore.

ETF flows drive growth
According to figures from June 9, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust has collected over $70 billion in assets, making it Bitcoin’s biggest ETF. Fidelity’s FBTC continues at $20 billion, while Grayscale’s GBTC holds just under $20 billion.
These numbers climbed quickly after the US Securities and Exchange Commission approved the Spot ETF. Large investors are piling up, increasing the price of Bitcoin, and the balance of ETFs reflects profits in almost real-time.
US President Donald Trump supports Bitcoin
Based on the campaign statement and subsequent enforcement actions, US President Donald Trump has shown his support for Bitcoin. He signed an executive order aimed at bringing the idea of a Bitcoin Reserve to the foreground while driving in the office and later creating a stockpile of digital assets.
Critics point out that setting up a government wallet is much more complicated than signing a note. Still, the president’s support has encouraged optimism among traders and some policy experts.
Analyst eye-level target
Zach Shapiro of the Bitcoin Policy Institute said the US government’s purchase of 1 million coins will cause a “global earthquake shock” at prices. He predicted that such a move could raise Bitcoin to about $1 million per token.

BPI director Matthew Hines added that he is looking at the US playbook before other countries shape their own code rules.
Meanwhile, some analysts believe that if the current trend continues, Bitcoin could potentially exceed $150,000 (or $250,000) in the coming years.
Regulators place Google under a microscope
Based on submissions from the UK’s Competitive and Markets Bureau, Alphabet faces anti-trust probes to search and advertising businesses under the Digital Markets, Competitive and Consumer Act 2024.
The CMA weighs the rules of the selection screen and ranks fairness and data portability. In the EU, regulators are scrutinizing the outlines generated by AI that could be reduced to publisher revenue, and there is one study that links such summaries to a decline in organic views.
