Bitcoin’s Market Cap Is Just Below Chevron’s and Just Above the Home Depot’s Market Valuations


Just over a year ago in Nov. 2021, bitcoin’s (BTC) market capitalization was the eighth largest out of a myriad of companies and assets traded globally. At the time, on Nov. 9, 2021, an archive.org snapshot collected from companiesmarketcap.com shows BTC’s market valuation was $1.289 trillion as each unit was swapping for just over $68K.

The leading crypto asset was just above Tesla’s $1.167 trillion market valuation recorded 395 days ago.

Today, on Dec. 9, 2022, the top two leading crypto assets BTC and ETH have much lower valuations than they did a year ago.

Ethereum’s current market price is roughly 73.7% lower than it was 395 days ago on Nov. 9, 2021. Though BTC and ETH have seen their market caps drop lower during the last year, the same can be said for a large number of different assets and companies.
