Bitcoin market cap: $8.3 billion
Uber the taxi app: $18+ billion

Is it just me, or something is wrong with this picture Huh

Well, Uber is convenient so if the amount shows above is what they earn will then it's good. Didn't thought that the Uber would earn that beyond bitcoin. But bitcoin itself could reach over anytime, as long as many investors to come.

there are still many big companies that have much higher capitalization than UBER, why you can compare UBER and Bitcoin? I think UBER-based apps have limited users in every country and not all countries are comfortable using them. In addition, the difference between UBER and Bitcoin is very different, UBER is only a technology-based application that facilitates temporary transport Bitcoin is a digital currency whose development has been trusted by everyone in the world and has valuable value.

Uber is a transport enterprise or technology enterprise. In order to get answers they have to go to court. Bitcoin is not recognized as a means of payment!

I am really shocked in what capacity this comparison is just made. Who wants to get a comparison between a transport company and a payment method? This is so foolish at his end to even talk about and quantify the difference between them. But yes, if the question were to whether bitcoins are being used in umber as payment method then it was okay but not like this.

I think it would hard for them to determine or gather data who are using Bitcoin cause we all know that Bitcoin is anonymous unlike Uber it's all documented so it is easy to get the number of their member. But if we're going to determine which is popular I think bitcoin is more ahead in terms of income.

Cabs are more readily needed by the population.
Not all are willing to put up time and effort to bitcoin which may seem complex to them.
In 2014 at least.

You compare incomparable things. It's like comparing God's gift to an omelet.There are companies whose capitalization has reached a much higher level. For example Apple/ she's capitalization 904,61 billion.It Facebook, Amazon, Microsoft, Johnson and Johnson, General electric, etc. This list can be continued still very long. I do not understand why you compare bitcoin with HUBERT?

I think that you do not understand Bitcoin or Uber, something between these two. Your point of thinking is only on market capitalization and not on innovative and disruptive technology that is behind these two. We can compare Bitcoin and Uber because they both are disruptive in their fields. Bitcoin disrupts banks system, Uber disrupts taxi system. Here is definition on what disruptive actually means from Wikipedia - "Disruptive innovation is a term in the field of business administration which refers to an innovation that creates a new market and value network and eventually disrupts an existing market and value network, displacing established market leading firms, products, and alliances." Do you understand now how these two are comparable?

Is it just me, or something is wrong with this picture Huh

im guessing that your questioning how come uber the taxi app has a larger marketcap compare to bitcoin
the answer is quite obvious uber is part of a normal ,average and even to some important people's lives,
almost everyday people use this app as means of transportation
while bitcoin on the contrary has a small percentage of community using it as per date

This is 2014 chart But we are all live in 2018.
1. Uber market cap is 51 billion .
2. Bitcoin market cap is 152 billion.
So everything is depends on demand currently cryptocurrency is rule the entire market so no one compare to the Bitcoin market cap.

Monalia, thanks for information about Uber market cap... In 2014. we can see that Bitcoin had lower market capitalization than Uber. Now in 2018. Bitcoin have higher market capitalization than Uber, which is logically to me, Bitcoin have so much larger market to disrupt when is Bitcoin compared to Uber.

Uber is a well-known taxi company. Currently, bitcoin is used more than credit cards in developed countries. If uber is using bitcoin it is great. Uber will attract more and more customers. Bitcoins are also becoming increasingly popular across all services.

In some countries uber has taken over by Grab this means some of their businesses are beinh drowned of economy.

Bitcoin is only at the beginning of its path, Uber is a fully functional product. The capitalization of bitcoin has a huge potential and in the future can be measured in billions.

Live cams shows pimped with cryptocurrency

I do not understand why to compare bitcoin with uber? Is this a similar business? Lol. Uber's capitalization has its limits. I don't believe self-driving cars will make this company rich. I don't trust drones and never get in a car like this. Bitcoin has no capitalization limit. The popularity and capitalization of bitcoins will grow in proportion to the government's attempts to tighten control over our money.

Does anyone have a comparison on the number of people that use Uber vs. the number of people using BTC?

Would be interesting indeed, I search and find the number of ride vs the number of bitcoin transaction in bitcoin :
http://www.businessofapps.com/data/uber-statistics/ = 2 billions of ride in 2017
https://www.quandl.com/data/BCHAIN/NTRAN-Bitcoin-Number-of-Transactions = +/- 90 000 000 of transactions in 2017

Number of rides and number of transactions are interesting, but they don't tell us anything about an even approximate number of people who use them. There are about 28 million bitcoin wallets and it is supposed that there is approximately 1 wallet per person. As for uber, I found out the information that they currently have 75 million riders. This means that uber has 2.5 times more users than bitcoin. As for market capitalization, btc has 150 billion, while uber is evaluated for 72 billion dollars. Quite interestingly, it makes bitcoin worth about 5 times the value of uber if we take into consideration the numbers of users.

Value is a subjective approach which can be twist to any direction but at that the level if the value of a thing is determine by it usage and coverage, as you know bitcoin is a currency but uber is just a taxi app while bitcoin can be use to carry out transactions uber on the other hand is restricted to only it area of operations.

I think the picture is true, because uber has been known all over the world, and people around the world have almost used this uber service, but for bitcoin that I think has a great prospect, but not everyone in the world knows it , so this is the superiority of uber in comparison to bitcoin, here's my opinion on this

The revolutionary trading ecosystem

For me maybe because a lot of people are subsrcibing to uber because it is a income opportunity. For those who have cars specially. An extra income is seen by this people who subscribe to Uber. A lot of people can now afford to buy cars, and extra income to subscribe to Uber is a opportunity. Hope that we can tie-up to Uber to accept Bitcoin as payment.
