Meta Platforms' market cap has ranged $1.0T-$1.8T in 2024-2026 as the AI rally and ad revenue recovered. Bitcoin's market cap has oscillated around Meta's through the cycle. Both are network-effect businesses — Meta monetizes attention via advertising across ~4B users; Bitcoin monetizes monetary settlement and store-of-value across ~500M holders. Meta has $150B+ annual revenue, real earnings, and regulatory risk concentrated in privacy/antitrust. Bitcoin has no revenue but also no single-point regulatory risk. Correlation with META is moderate (0.3-0.5) — both are tech-coded risk assets. For allocators, the comparison is useful for sizing: if you believe BTC is a network-effect asset in the early-adoption phase, Meta's mature valuation is a plausible mid-term anchor.
