Wow look at this! Notable valuations worth Hivving about. At approximately 12:28pm on May 22 2025 Gold is worth $22.13 TRILLION at $3296 USD. The BITCOIN network is now worth $2.216 TRILLION at $111,595 USD, but Silver is just $1.848 TRILLION at only $32.84.
With BTC at new ATH's we see HyperLiquid up +23%, Avalanche up 11% and DOGE up 7%.
BTC holding over 108k looks good to me, but we should all continue to accumulate because price is not as important as supply.

That is a whole lot of Tether. CoinGecko says 24 hour trading volume is actually $87,453,623,672 USD and the Etherscan for USDT suggests $91,191,100,380 USD worth has been traded.
When looking at Tether you don't view price, you view market cap.

With Hyperliquid, which is made by pooling USDC, the market cap and the price move together.

With HIVE, when the price of BTC goes up, users sell,
For less and less BTC for their Hive, it seems.
Bitcoin wants Hive to be higher.
How High will BTC go? Hive is worth at least a thousand Satoshis.
BTC is the new global ledger and Hive is the actual use case for it.
Hive is ranked #416 by market cap among cryptos, and that might not be a bad thing. Sometimes being the underdog is better than being the top dog. I personally get more value out of Hive than I do from BTC sometimes. Maybe the real successes are the friends we make along the way.
Hive is a very niche sort of place, for web developers, for graphic designers, for writers.
At $111,808 BTC is still 60.88% of top 30 crypto cap.

How high will it go? Over 120k? Over 140k?

Is there an appetite for BTC at this price?
Where is BTC in the cycle? Let us look at the 'days remaining' until the next halving,
FFBFFO <-- this is where we are on 220525, with 1056 days remaining.
2021-2022
In my recent post This can't be the top can it? I wondered if the price stairsteps will get smaller the higher the market caps go. Eventually will BTC become a stable asset at a very high price?
'All three perspectives agree: the mathematical model, adoption trends, and blockchain fundamentals make continued BTC price growth through 2035 and 2050 highly probable—though not without risks and volatility.'*
Do your own research! Dollar cost average into BTC by buying regularly no matter the price. Don't spend any money you aren't prepared to lose forever, and keep your keys safe!
It wont be many years before it becomes higher on the list.

#4 maybe within a year or two, but BTC is unlikely to usurp Gold in the next 5 years. If BTC does continue to appreciate in valuation for the next 50 years however, we could see unimaginable changes in that time.
