Bitcoin could overtake Apple’s $3T market cap in 6-12 months if its current rally continues, needing a price around $152K-$165K. This would boost crypto adoption, shake tech stock confidence, and likely trigger stricter regulations. Markets could see increased volatility as investors shift toward decentralized assets.[](https://www.banklesstimes.com/articles/2025/05/19/bitcoin-market-cap-flipped-google-can-it-flip-apple-microsoft-nvidia/)[](https://www.ccn.com/education/crypto/can-crypto-market-caps-outshine-apple-or-amazon/)

Honestly, I doubt that Bitcoin is ready to overtake Apple just yet. Companies like Apple, Microsoft, and Nvidia are going through a tough period - revenues are declining due to inflation, supply chain issues, and more. But they still have real products, billions of users, and strong infrastructure. Bitcoin, on the other hand, is currently surging without any clear new use case mostly driven by speculation and expectations. Right now, it looks more like a store of value than something that truly replaces traditional financial systems.
A price of $152–165K isn’t just a "small step up" it would require trillions of dollars flowing into the market. So achieving that within 6–12 months seems overly optimistic.
