> **Visual Note:** A dashboard from cryptodiffer dated 25 Aug 2026 titled "Bitcoin Climbs to #12 as SpaceX Cracks the Top 10," displaying the Top 15 Global Assets by market cap with Gold ($32.55T) leading, followed by NVIDIA ($5.05T), Apple ($4.53T), Alphabet ($4.21T), and Silver ($3.82T), while Bitcoin rose to #12 at $1.61T (+24.8%) and SpaceX entered the top 10 at #9 ($1.78T, +17.3%). The image visually reinforces the post's narrative of a broad risk-on rally, with green price gains dominating the board—including BTC's standout +24.8% surge—contrasting sharply against the losses seen earlier in the year.
