I think your right i think once the snow ball gets rolling we will see massive investment in bitcoin.

i agree, there is always a lot of popularity coming to bitcoin because of the rise, because the media will start talking about bitcoin nonstop and that is the best thing that can help the adoption of bitcoin.

and awareness is the key for many investors to come and trade bitcoin, this news is relatively correct
and almost or most of us are anticipating we all got lucky to have it while many are still learning how
this investment work, thanks OP for sharing this.

According to https://financesonline.com/top-10-most-expensive-stocks-in-the-world-from-chipotle-to-berkshire-hathaway/ and many others if bitcoin was a stock it would come under the 5th most expensive at current prices.

Surely its just a matter of time before investors see the potential in bitcoin and we could end up at no1 on that list. What are your thoughts, and could bitcopin ever be shared on the stock exchange to compete with these top trading stocks?

Bitcoin is destined to become a super stock, sort of like Berkshire Hathaway tier A stock. Just for the record, here is how the all time graph of BRK.A looks like:

This is how the all time graph in Bitcoinwisdom.com will look like in about 10 years. Too bad most people can't see it, but we are going to 100k+ per BTC.

Yes it is that potential that traders go crazy about bitcoin. It is also the best thing I love about bitcoins. Sooner or later bitcoin will become the center of attention in the world if trading and the crypto economy will be very lively at that time. Bitcoin being number is not just a potential but a reality that is already on the making.

you can't really compare bitcoin with stocks especially not with those stocks in the list. for example stock of "Amazon.com" belongs to a legit and huge company that we all know and can easily decide that it is a good company even if you don't have any information you can easily see this.
but bitcoin is not like that, it doesn't belong to a company and has no physical form which makes it hard for average joes to trust and invest in it. also it is still so young compared to those.

Banks are supposedly the most legit companies and the money they have are also just digital on private ledgers. These banks have many investors and the people trust them, because they are backed by the governments. The problem with Bitcoin is, it is not 100% controlled by governments and this bothers a lot of investors. They need control and legislation to protect their wealth, and Bitcoin is still within that grey area, if you not working within the regulated environment. < Exchanges > ^hmmmm^

But the funny thing is the banks are intruiged with bitcoin as a protocol and as a decentralized ledger. By just recognizing that can be considered a win for bitcoin. Satoshi must have done something right if they are considering using the technology for their own needs. It will stay relevant for at least a decade more.

But if you talking about stocks, the lowest unit you can use and trade is one Satoshi, or hundred million cheaper than you expected. Seems Bitcoin and its Satoshi stock unit is cheapest stock in the world instead.

At least it is my understanding stocks cannot be divided anymore, it has to be the lowest tradable unit.

This news isn't related with Bitcoin being 5th most expensive stock because 2 reason :
1. Bitcoin is a currency
2. It's weird to compare a currency with stock

Also, the news don't mention bitcoin at all. We supposed to compare bitcoin with another currency or at least with centralized payment service.

Yes, but maybe they compared the value of bitcoin to some stock value per share. Now bitcoin is @670 and continue to rise. Unlike stock, bitcoin is a currency that anyone can owned Wink

Yes I also thought like that, that might not be a bitcoin a share. But such a bitcoin digital currency that can be obtained and to some people. If the bitcoin became a stock, then I think it will be a destruction for bitcoin. Because for sure there will be a profitable stock party rules

I am not really surprised, given the value of bitcoin as it is now.
However, bitcoin is not really a 'stock' as far as I know but it is constantly being traded, bought, and sold and I believe it will be keeping on happening until bitcoin reaches a stable price levels. That stable price might be very much higher levels and must be possible after some 50 or more years.

Where is my ring of blades...

it would have been so great for bitcoin if more people (investors) look at bitcoin more like an investment and just like those shares. although I believe that bitcoin is so much more than just an investment and it is offering so much more as a currency too.
but it takes time to reach a more stable and suitable state for more investors to feel safe to invest in bitcoin, so maybe in the future we will see bitcoin in lists like this.

Is this really exciting or just too scary. Yes popularity will come but when there is a stock there is a share. Shares mean shareholders who will be owning parts of bitcoin. Now , is it still exciting?

as for me, it doesn't matter at all, if you're on crypto, you already knew that it is the bitcoin that makes that world go round and if you're on stock, it's based on your preception on what is the real status. guess it's not a matter.

The stock comparison is understandable, strictly from a return standpoint.

Just the IT/OIL companies have a market value which exceeds the market cap of bitcoin. In the future the market cap of bitcoin will grow, sure.
But if you have a look at the market cap right now, this is not a fact.

Bitcoin's market cap and the daily transactions matter more than the price in my opinion. What good is a high price if there was not really anything meaningful behind it? So it's not really a comparison that will say much.

This is nice. I can't see BTC making it into the markets though, because the anonymity is exactly what bothers the governments, the leaders of this world. In short time, which means an year or so, it could be the No. 1 stock in the world, but with just one condition: to make us somehow loose our anonymity when we are using BTC (they can surveil us, I am 100% sure they can), but that would mean the end of Bitcoin.

Congrats, guys for contributing to bringing this currency among the top 5 in the world! Cheesy

we have all contributed to it.
