Why Cryptos still aren't in a bubble - addendum

This is a follow-up post on my own article : what we can learn from the Dot-com bubble, and how Cryptos are nowhere near that stage.

I just stumbled upon another argument that went against the idea that we're in a bubble:

The dot-com bubble was a crash that happened on the Nasdaq, an american exchange. Cryptos are, by essence, a worldwide phenomenon. A lot of investments are made in Asia : 20% of today's volume has been with korean and japanese exchanges (https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/#markets).

So let's recap. The total market cap of cryptos is 0.33 trillion USD right now. When the dot-com bubble burst, the ATH was 6.71 trillion USD. Taking into account inflation, that ATH was 9.52 trillion in today's dollars. Taking into account that the dot-com bubble was a "local" bubble, the ATH of a global dot-com bubble would've surely been higher than 10 trillion, and probably higher than 15 trillion. The current market cap of cryptos is a ridiculous 3.3% of 10 trillion USD. We simply are nowhere near an actual bubble, at least if you believe cryptos will shape the future, just like the Internet did.

Disclaimer: just as the first article, this article is focused on the long term future of cryptocurrencies. BTC could drop to $500 tomorrow, it wouldn't change my point. This isn't investment advice. Don't invest more than you can afford to lose.
