I see that number all the time as well, but i'm confused.

There is less than 2 Trillion in Gold in the entire world. If you divide 2 Trillion / 21 Million (total number of possible bitcoins), you would get BTC of $100,000 equals the market cap of Gold. Not $500,000.

By my math BTC of $500,000 would be 5x the market cap of gold. Would someone explain how my math is wrong?
