On July 14, 2025, Bitcoin reached a historic milestone, with a capitalization exceeding $2.4 trillion, overtaking Amazon and becoming one of the five most valued assets globally.
Historic Bitcoin Breakthrough
As of July 14, 2025, Bitcoin's price rose to over $122,600, pushing its market capitalization to $2.4 trillion. Bitcoin increased by 13% within a week due to record inflows into spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and rising institutional demand.
Factors Driving Capitalization Growth
Spot Bitcoin ETF inflows became unprecedented, with U.S.-listed products attracting $1.17 billion and $1.03 billion on July 10 and 11 respectively. These inflows propelled Bitcoin above the $120,000 mark. Concurrently, the U.S. passed legislation promoting crypto's growth, which sparked increased interest from institutional investors.
The Future of Bitcoin and its Financial Impact
Bitcoin has emerged as a technology-driven asset with the potential for continued growth. If governmental support and institutional demand persist, it is anticipated that Bitcoin's capitalization will keep increasing and that it could reach new heights, including a possible surge to $200,000.
Bitcoin surpassing Amazon in terms of capitalization signifies its historical importance and suggests that it has become a key component of modern financial markets.
