Bitcoin has become the eighth largest asset in the world following Donald Trump's election success last week.

In the last 24 hours, the cryptocurrency overtook silver to become the world's eighth largest asset, reaching a market capitalization of $1.752 trillion and narrowly surpassing silver's $1.726 trillion.

Following Trump's win in the November 5 presidential election over his Democratic opponent Kamala Harris, there have been boosts to traditional currency and cryptocurrency markets, individual stocks, and the broader U.S. equity markets, as investors anticipate deregulation and tax cuts under the 47th U.S. president. Techgraph has called the boosts the "Trump Effect."

Bitcoin is now catching up on the $1.804 trillion valuation of Saudi Aramco, Saudi Arabia's majority state-owned petroleum and natural gas company. It still lags considerably behind tech giants like MicrosoftApple and Google, as well as software company NVIDIA, all of which make the top five. Gold maintains its position as the world's top valued asset with a market cap of $17.6 trillion.

There have also been rallies among cryptocurrency prices, spearheaded by Bitcoin, having risen by 15.03 percent in the past five days to $87,320.08. The world's biggest and most well-known cryptocurrency has now more than doubled from a year's low of $38,505 in January.

Ethereum has also risen to $3,275.43, after a five-day increase of 13.09 percent. Dogecoin rose 102.48 percent to $0.39 in the five days leading up to Tuesday, November 12.
