billionfold

Multiplied by billion

Billionfold means multiplied by a billion, or increased a billion times over.

The word emphasizes incomprehensibly vast multiplication: Computing power has increased billionfold since the 1960s.

Like other -fold words, it works as both adjective and adverb: a billionfold increase, profits grew billionfold.
