Bitcoin’s market cap surpasses $1.6 trillion! 🚀📈 Supported by an unprecedented all-time high price of over $81,000, Bitcoin has marked another milestone, achieving a total market cap above $1.6 trillion for the first time since its inception in 2009.

On November 11, 2024, Bitcoin’s market cap soared to a remarkable $1.62 trillion in this ongoing bullish run, pushing the global cryptocurrency market to a collective value of $2.71 trillion, as tracked by Cointelegraph Markets Pro and CoinMarketCap. Such growth means Bitcoin investments over the past 15 years have remained profitable, according to Blockchain.com, as all BTC held without sale since Bitcoin’s creation have appreciated.
Bitcoin’s current circulating supply has reached 19.8 million BTC, nearing its cap of 21 million tokens, which, if reached, would push the fully diluted valuation (FDV) to $1.7 trillion. Institutional interest, favorable policies from President-elect Donald Trump, and overall investor optimism are key drivers of Bitcoin’s upward momentum.
Previously, in February 2024, Bitcoin’s market cap first exceeded $1 trillion, as BTC surged beyond $51,000, though it briefly receded following the halving event. Now, with prices over $80,000, analysts believe this could be the start of an even stronger bull run.
Bitcoin expert Tuur Demeester recently encouraged investors to maintain their holdings amid this trend. Glassnode’s lead analyst, James Check (Checkmatey), noted the distance between Bitcoin’s price and its 200-Day Moving Average (DMA) remains “cool,” suggesting potential for further growth.
In the words of many Bitcoin enthusiasts: “This is just the beginning.” 🌄✨
