Amazon's market cap has ranged $1.5T-$2.3T in 2024-2026, anchored by AWS cloud revenue ($100B+ run-rate) and e-commerce scale. Bitcoin's market cap has oscillated around Amazon's through recent cycles with cycle-peak overtakes. Both benefited structurally from the 2020-2022 digital transformation wave but via different mechanisms — Amazon via pulled-forward e-commerce and cloud adoption; Bitcoin via monetary debasement narrative and retail onboarding. Amazon has ~$600B annual revenue and real earnings; Bitcoin has no cash flows. Correlation moderate (0.4-0.6). For allocators, the comparison is a reference point for how large "digital-native" assets can grow — Amazon took ~25 years to reach $2T; Bitcoin reached similar territory in ~15.
