The title says 176 thousand (plausible) whereas article says 176 million (impossible).
You should try to edit that possibly. Aside from that bitcoin doesn't have anything correlating with any of those three things.

Bitcoin is not pegged to US dollar in anyway, it is a global thing and if you can consider all us dollars into bitcoin all at once then you can also consider ALL MONEY IN THE ALL WORLD into bitcoin as well, which would make it significantly higher, that is just crazy talk and will never happen.

On the other hand, it is not connected to ecommerce neither, bitcoin is not a way where you can buy stuff online, you can use it on regular life as well, how about buying your cars gas with bitcoin? It only takes one "shell" like company to start accepting crypto.

Also, it has NO connection with paypal as well, paypal is a way for you to send dollar to somewhere else, A's dollar goes to B's bank, bitcoin is money in itself not a way to send or receive dollars. So all of them are quite as irrelevant as it gets.
