Bitcoin's total addressable market will ultimately reach approximately $270 trillion — positioning it as "digital capital" and apex reserve asset, capturing global store-of-value demand currently distributed across real estate, gold, sovereign debt, and equities. | First $10T Bitcoin market cap

Key catalyst: First $10T Bitcoin market cap

Watch events: Annual Bitcoin market-cap milestones; sovereign adoption curves

Current market cap ~$2T (2026); 135x path to $270T requires dominance over 30-40% of global store-of-value markets. Mathematically possible but no historical base-rate analog.

No probability history yet. The first evidence will arrive via /api/intake or the daily milestone sweep / weekly LBP run.

No propagation data yet. Run inference/.venv/bin/python scripts/ops/run_loopy_belief_propagation.py on the droplet, or wait for the Sunday 02:00 UTC weekly cron.
