When the market cap rises, price of shares goes up? Do you know what a market cap is?

Yes, but the company doesn't get more money from that. The only, way to get money out of it is by selling shares at the new price.

However it would also raise future revenue, which should be what's reflected by the market.

So it would still be something that's good for the company, but not nearly 100B good.
