Well, well, well, it seems that Bitcoin has managed to do what we all thought was impossible-shatter yet another record. According to some astute data analysis, the digital darling of the internet has added a whopping $625 billion to its realized cap in the last 18 months. And just to put that in perspective, that’s more than Bitcoin’s first 15 years combined, which saw a modest $435 billion trickle in.
Ki Young Ju, the CEO of CryptoQuant, took to Twitter to share this rather spectacular tidbit of information. Between 2009 and 2024, Bitcoin managed to pull in a humble $435 billion. But, in the short span of a mere 1.5 years, from 2024 to 2025, the number skyrocketed to $625 billion. It’s almost as if Bitcoin’s a teenager that spent 15 years awkwardly growing up and suddenly discovered its entrepreneurial spirit.

In case you were wondering, Bitcoin’s realized cap-this nifty little on-chain metric that values the currency only when it moves-has now surpassed $1 trillion. And no, that’s not a typo. A trillion. With a T. So, for those of us still struggling with our savings accounts, maybe it’s time to start paying closer attention to these digital coins that are apparently worth more than our entire national debt.
Bitcoin Price: A Rollercoaster Ride
But, of course, it’s not all sunshine and rainbows. The crypto market has decided to go for a bit of a red-themed Monday morning, with Bitcoin once again failing to keep itself above the prestigious $116,000 mark. Early adopters seem to be having a field day selling their shares, causing the price to dip to $114,988, down a mere 0.78%. Not bad, but it’s been a rough ride, with Bitcoin dropping for three consecutive days. One can only hope that the “HODLers” are still holding strong and not panicking just yet.
But wait, there’s more! Traders are all a-buzz, eagerly awaiting the Federal Reserve’s upcoming rate cut decision, which will take place after their two-day meeting this week. They’re betting on a modest 25-basis-point cut, which may just cause a ripple effect in the markets in October and December. And just to add a bit of inflationary drama, the U.S. consumer price index shot up 2.9% in August, marking its biggest monthly jump since January. Meanwhile, the core inflation, which the Federal Reserve’s panel watches like hawks, is now at 3.1%. Could this mean trouble ahead? Who knows. But for now, Bitcoin is certainly making a splash.
