I'm not someone who is into the financial industry and if the stats are true ... then it is really good. I am sure a lot of investors will find Bitcoin a potential investment in times to come. Hopefully that Bitcoin price will go up high but still remain low for normal people like me to invest in. .

[1Referee]

Doesn't say much. I add more value to the market cap of Bitcoin and stocks instead of just comparing the exchange rate where they being bought and sold at.

Well I won't be surprised if this happens. Bitcoin keeps gaining popularity and a lot of people have started embracing it as a way to be paid and get paid. Besides, there are already a lot of company investing in Bitcoins which has only increased it's value the more.

i think that would have been great. bitcoin can surely compete with all those stocks that are listed in the link you provided and it would be the 8th one but i don't think it is all about the price only. it is about popularity and trust too. many are scared of bitcoin for some reason!!

[BitcoinSupremo]

It can be number one once the people realize its potential. We are far away from that from the moment as if you take in consideration world population , people who have access to internet from the world population, people that know and use bitcoin are extremely few in numbers. That's why I say we are far from that day for the moment.

or you can price it in satoshis and it becomes the world's cheapest stock. this is grasping gone a little too far. and it ain't a stock either.

Basically that. These kind of articles don't have much value and are mostly published due to a lack of better news.

Stock prices from time to time will get split into smaller pieces as the stock becomes too expensive per single unit.

Exactly the same can be done with Bitcoin. If you take 1mBTC for example, then it won't even be on that list.

Just for a second, let's pretend that Bitcoin has reached the nr1 spot in that list, then what? It won't change anything.

ease of access are the hallmarks of bitcoin. This is the opportunity for people to more often use bitcoin. power use bitcoin is already very large. bitcoin this opportunity to enter into one of the strengths of the world's financial system.

Tbh imho this is a terrible comparison.

[Barbut]

Positive news, I believe we will be no 1 in close future. Bitcoin is going forward and its just a matter of time before bitcoin enter in some serious companies.
People ask what if become no 1, what then? Its unique promotion, people will see it and they will invest their money in bitcoin and block chain. Why there is difference when song is no 1, people listen that song and you can hear it on every station. That why is good to be no 1 on the list in this world.

Belive me investors see the potential in bitcoin. The problem is trust issue. They have no idea how bitcoin will scale, because it is new idea, an experiment first of its kind.
Stock and securities are known for over 100 years so it is natural that investors know everything abut stock market ant its nuances. But Bitcoin is like enigma for most of old investors.

Yes, I think they already see and knew the potential of bitcoin but of course they need some time to research and think about it before taking a risk. There is a big possibility that they are considering bitcoin too, especially because some big companies accepted it already. Really just a matter of time imo.

Well regarding on bitcoin becoming the world's 5th most expensive stock, as you mentioned if it was a stock, but it's not. Another thing is that, I don't see something about bitcoin on the link you provided, it's just all about that top 10 most expensive stocks.

this is very interesting to me to see all these stocks and price of bitcoin in comparison with them. because i always have this big question in my mind about why bitcoin is not so much bigger than the current situation. i mean it is so much better than all those stocks in the list and it has been improving over the years. so i don't get why not?!

[yayayo]

What kind of nonsense is that? Qualifying a stock as expensive just because a single share of the company is priced at a few hundred dollar is totally misleading. Expensiveness of a stock has to be determined based on its total market capitalization compared to the economic performance of the underlying company. The ranking is also wrong, since there are numerous less popular stocks on regional exchanges and in other countries that have higher share prices but were not considered for the ranking. Besides that being number one in that ranking doesn't mean anything - the company can still go bankrupt.

I also don't see the point in relating Bitcoin to this ranking. Bitcoin is a currency and an asset class of its own. It would be a great relief for me to see all those trader type speculators leave, because all they want is generating more fiat junk money - they don't care about Bitcoin as a free decentralized currency.

ya.ya.yo!

it's a totally different beast. you can't really compare them. stocks have been around forever and more people understand them. they're a huge part of the whole global economy.

bitcoin's just getting rolling and it has a whole world to convince. stocks have already won.

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.

Bitcoin are being perceived as a commodity and a store of wealth, and not as a currency by most countries. This is exactly the problem at the moment, because if these countries accepted Bitcoin as

a legal currency, more merchants would accept it as legal tender. Bitcoin has been the best performing currency for the last couple of years to, and that says a lot more. If we look at both of these

aspects, Bitcoin is outperforming others as a stock and a currency.

Bitcoin is legal money in majority of/all countries that matters.
