On April 23, 2025, Bitcoin briefly surpassed Google’s market capitalization, reaching a valuation of over $1.87 trillion. This brief surge cemented Bitcoin as the fifth-largest asset globally and highlights its increasing significance in financial markets. The rise can be attributed to growing institutional interest, particularly within Bitcoin ETFs which saw a record high of $913 million in net inflows on April 22nd. This unprecedented flow underscores investor confidence in Bitcoin as a secure asset during economic uncertainty. Notably, the move comes as Bitcoin’s price range continues to hold strong, surpassing traditional tech stocks and even influencing stock markets like the Nasdaq.
