Bitcoin (BTC) has fallen out of the top ten assets globally by market capitalization and is now ranked 13th after a broad market sell-off.<\/p>\n
The shift highlights a sharp reversal from July 2025, when Bitcoin\u2019s rally past $119,000 placed it ahead of silver and tech giant Alphabet.<\/p>\n
Data from CompaniesMarketCap on February 2, 2026, shows<\/a> the flagship cryptocurrency\u2019s market capitalization at approximately $1.55 trillion. This places it behind assets like silver, valued at about $4.62 trillion, and companies including Tesla and Broadcom.<\/p>\n The change is notable given that just over six months ago, Bitcoin\u2019s market cap of around $2.35 trillion had secured it the sixth position globally, surpassing both silver and Alphabet.<\/p>\n The current ranking is the result of a period of sustained pressure<\/a> on cryptocurrency prices alongside unusual volatility in traditional commodity markets. Bitcoin\u2019s price fell below $75,000 on February 2, a level not seen<\/a> since April 2025, according to The Kobeissi Letter.<\/p>\n Data from CoinGecko shows the asset down more than 11% over seven days and more than 16% across two weeks. Ethereum has fallen even harder, dropping more than 21% in the last week and about 25% over 30 days to sink to position 66 on the overall market cap rankings.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, the broader crypto market saw its capitalization fall by roughly $500 billion since last Wednesday, while precious metals erased<\/a> an estimated $10 trillion over the same period. Despite this, silver alone remains larger than Bitcoin and all altcoins combined, particularly after posting<\/a> a significant reversal back to $87 per ounce, following a decline to the low $70s from a weekly high of $122.<\/p>\n The assets now ranked above Bitcoin are led by gold, which remains the world\u2019s most valuable non-real estate asset with a market cap of about $33 trillion. Other notable leaders in the top ten include NVIDIA, Microsoft, Amazon, and Saudi Aramco.<\/p>\n Silver\u2019s current position at third, with its $4.62 trillion valuation, is particularly telling of how fortunes have changed in the last six months. Halfway through 2025, a surge in the price of BTC allowed it to overtake<\/a> the precious metal. Now, silver\u2019s market cap is nearly three times larger than the cryptocurrency\u2019s again.<\/p>\n Alphabet, which had also been surpassed by BTC, is currently ranked the fourth most valuable asset at just over $4 trillion, followed by iPhone maker Apple with a valuation of $3.8 trillion.<\/p>\n The parallel sell-offs indicate the current volatility is not confined to crypto, but part of a wider market recalibration, and the differing recovery patterns between assets will be watched closely to see if capital rotates back into cryptocurrencies or continues to favor traditional markets.<\/p>\n The post Bitcoin Drops Out of Top 10 Global Assets, Falls to 13th<\/a> appeared first on CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Bitcoin (BTC) has fallen out of the top ten assets globally by market capitalization and is now ranked 13th after a broad market sell-off.
