Bitcoin Reaches Record High Following Trump Win
Bitcoin reached unprecedented heights on Thursday, surpassing $76,600 and leading a broad cryptocurrency market rally following Donald Trump’s presidential election victory. The surge reflects growing investor confidence in Trump’s pro-crypto stance and campaign promises.
Trump’s evolution from crypto skeptic to advocate has played a crucial role in market sentiment. His campaign embraced cryptocurrency donations and he has outlined ambitious plans to establish America as a global crypto hub, including creating a bitcoin strategic reserve. The former president’s family has also ventured into the sector with the launch of World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency trading enterprise.
Bitcoin’s performance has been remarkable in 2024, showing a 77% increase year-to-date. Investment experts like AJ Bell’s Russ Mould suggest the $100,000 milestone could be within reach, citing Trump’s declared support for digital currencies as a major catalyst.
