**Bitcoin Market Cap Surges Past $1.35 Trillion**

Bitcoin's market capitalization has soared to $1.35 trillion, a staggering $1 trillion more than Ethereum's, as BTC trades just above $68,000. This 8.9% rise since October 12 has sparked speculation about Bitcoin's continued upward momentum.

- **Market Cap Milestone**: Bitcoin now leads Ethereum by $1 trillion in market cap, hitting a new all-time high for the spread, according to Glassnode's James Check.

- **Current Standings**: Ethereum's market cap is at $318.32 billion, while Bitcoin recently touched $67,000 for the first time since July.

- **Historical Context**: Bitcoin's all-time high market cap was $1.41 trillion on May 21. It currently ranks tenth among global assets, just behind Meta Platforms (Facebook).

Analysts believe Bitcoin has plenty of room for growth, with some comparing its potential to the early days of the mortgage market. Crypto enthusiasts argue that the market is still in its early stages, especially considering the Federal Reserve's massive pandemic-era money printing.
