Bitcoin Is Just 0.2% Of Global Wealth — And That’s Why It’s Not Too Late: Analyst

According to Walker, host of The Bitcoin Podcast, Bitcoin’s share of the world’s wealth is still tiny. It sits at about $2 trillion in market value. That’s just 0.2% of roughly $1 quadrillion held across all assets.

For many investors, that number brings a sense of how early this market really is. Yet, it also raises questions about what comes next for this highly talked-about coin.

Global Wealth Distribution

Real estate holds the biggest slice of that $1 quadrillion pie. At around $370 trillion, it represents 37% of total global wealth. Bonds follow close behind with $318 trillion.

Those are seen as a safe choice for retirees and conservative funds. Stocks, meanwhile, sit at $135 trillion. Cash and bank deposits add another almost $130 trillion to the mix. These numbers show where most of the world’s money lives today.

There is $1000 TRILLION of global wealth.

Bitcoin is only $2T…

Bitcoin is only 0.2% of global wealth, and there will only ever be 21M bitcoins.

We are insanely early yet many still feel like they’ve missed the boat…

If you’re reading this, buy bitcoin.

Bitcoin’s Market Share

Bitcoin’s $2 trillion value looks small next to these giants. It comes in below art, cars and collectibles, which together amount to $27 trillion. Gold, long a trusted store of value, sits at $22 trillion. So, while Bitcoin is rare by design, it still trails behind assets with centuries of history and deep pockets on the buying side.

With only 21 million coins ever to be mined, Bitcoin’s supply cap is fixed. That has led to forecasts of big price jumps if demand keeps growing. Based on reports, some say Bitcoin could match gold’s $22 trillion market cap one day.

That would push a single coin past $1.15 million. Other backers warn that missing out now could mean buying in later at much higher levels, driven by FOMO—fear of missing out.

Michael Saylor, who heads one of the biggest Bitcoin treasury firms, thinks big players might wait until prices soar. He suggests that companies like JPMorgan could finally jump in when Bitcoin hits $1 million.

He even floated the idea of $10 million per coin before it becomes common in mainstream portfolios. These views point to a potential wave of new cash rushing in if certain price thresholds are crossed.
