The $45 billion Bitcoin exchange Binance ranks sixth worldwide “unicorns”It comes from Hurun Research’s semi-annual Global Unicorn Index 2022 report.
The crypto company immediately rose 15 positions. Six months ago, its capital was $15 billion.
Douyin ($200 billion) took the first place on the list. Media platform operator TikTok lost $150 billion
Elon Musk’s SpaceX ($125 billion) moved up to second place, ahead of Ant Group ($120 billion).
In total, Hurun counted 1,312 non-public companies valued at over $1 billion in 48 countries. Their total value is $4.2 trillion, making up 17.6% of the top 10 totals.
“In the first six months of the year, 369 new unicorns were detected, two a day. Almost a third are engaged in fintech, SaaS, and blockchain. 80% provide services and only 20% have physical products. “It sells to businesses 65% and consumers 35%,” said Rupert Hugewerf, Hurun Principal Investigator.
