From humble beginnings as an experiment in decentralized currencies, Bitcoin has evolved into one of the most vulnerable and valuable assets in modern history. The latest comparison of Bitcoin with major global companies reveals how far digital currencies have gone.
More than the company Titan
Since September 2014, Bitcoin has outperformed nearly all major publicly traded companies on the planet. According to recent data, the only exception is NVIDIA. The tech giant has earned an amazing +28,700% return since that date – +23,500% of Bitcoin over the same period.
This comparison emphasizes the extraordinary performance of these two assets. But when the timeline extends to its founding, the Bitcoin story becomes even more compelling.
According to historical data, the lowest price of Bitcoin ever was $0.00061337, observed on December 17, 2009. It is very noteworthy that exactly seven years later, on December 17, 2017, Bitcoin peaked in this bull cycle – reaching a high of nearly $20,000 and cementing its position in mainstream finance.

17.2 billion% return
Numbers ignore conventional understanding. Bitcoin surges roughly from its all-time low in 2009 to today +17,217,824,377.88% – Amazing 17.2 billion% profit. No other assets in the recorded financial history produce such returns.
This performance dwarfs the returns of traditional stock markets and has sparked a wave of global investment, speculation and innovation in the blockchain space. Despite the historical profits of early adopters, Bitcoin continues to attract institutional investors, hedge funds and nation-states, who see it as both hedging inflation and a digital storage of value.
From its obscure beginning to its current role as a major financial force, Bitcoin’s journey is nothing more than historic. While its future remains a topic of debate, one thing is clear: Bitcoin has secured its role as one of the greatest assets in human history.
Whether it continues to outperform giants like Nvidia, its impact on global finance is undeniable and may just be the beginning.
