Bitcoin – the most popular cryptocurrency in the digital financial market – has reportedly reached a new record high at $89,000 on Monday. Bitcoin price’s incredible pump after Donald Trump’s win in the recent presidential election means a crypto-friendly White House for the first time. Bitcoin price is on the rise, as the number of investors stands tall and is blessed with an optimistic view for the new year forward, spurred on by Trump’s positive comments on crypto during his campaign. Specifically, the research using data from CoinGecko showed that the Bitcoin price value has risen by more than 129,000% between 2013 and 2021, proving the fact of untold growth for this cryptocurrency.
The Bitcoin Price Historic Surge Reaches New High
Bitcoin price recently hit fresh all-time highs – with the cryptocurrency trading at $89,560 on Monday evening, very shortly after crossing $82,000 during the same day. This is a major win for Bitcoin that has risen 126% in the year to date alone. This realisation has come because of the currency prices going up in the market moving around and have helped in giving back good returns for other asset classes as well.
“Bitcoin’s past rise reflects the desire for digital currencies as Trump’s presidency returns to power strengthens people’s desire for independence in the financial sector”, said Vinamrata Chaturvedi, a crypto analyst.
Recent gains come as the cryptocurrency is considered more often as a hedge against equities and other financial assets. This is because, in some analyst’s opinion, this upward trend can only increase and Bitcoin can reach the figure of $100 000 in the near future. Bitcoin’s rally seems even more profound, especially after Trump endorsed the cryptocurrency, a move that has not been perceived by many as the typical regime from the U.S. government towards virtual tender.
Trump’s Pro-Crypto Stance Sparks Investor Optimism
During his campaign, Donald Trump supported Bitcoin calling himself the ‘crypto candidate.’ The new President’s administration starting January is expected to have a more favourable stance to cryptocurrencies regulation. Beyond Bitcoin, the former president aspired to make the crypto symbolize freedom from monetary control and embraced crypto contributions, taking campaigns in BTC, ETH, DOGE, and SOL.
Trump himself attended a major Bitcoin conference in Nashville, Tennessee in May when he spoke to an audience largely composed of Bitcoin supporters. “Crypto invention will be led by America,” he said while reaffirming his stance on embracing cryptocurrencies. The support is a clear indication that a pro-Bitcoin tone has shifted in the USA political sphere and added new growth vector to the market.
After Trump’s election victory, there has been a remarkable increase in investment in Bitcoin exchange-traded funds ETFs. According to data from Farside, the U.S. Bitcoin ETFs attracted $1.3 billion on Thursday alone. BlackRock has invested over $1 billion into its Bitcoin ETF, while Fidelity received $190M into its ETF. The above’s presence has bolstered the continuation of Bitcoin’s rally and shown the market a positive light on Trump’s incoming election.
Market Anarchy and Increasing Cryptocurrency Prices
The recovery of digital currency also had a bullish effect on other digital currencies, as seen in the crypto market boost. Ether, the token for the Ethereum platform, was over $3,100 each as of this morning. A 24-hour increase saw Dogecoin, a cryptocurrency endorsed by Elon Musk, increase by 18 per cent and Solana by 6 per cent. Global cryptocurrency market cap, as per the data available at coinmarketcap, is $2.79 trillion, an increase of nearly 3% in one day.
Cryptocurrency analyst Rocio Fabbro added her thoughts: “This sort of rally indicates that investors’ interest is not only in Bitcoin. The president’s input appears to fuel the whole digital asset space.”
Bitcoin price rise is attributed to the fact that the investors are convinced that the policy environment for cryptocurrency business is adopted by Trump administration will be conducive to the market. Some investors believed that with the coming of Trump into office more positive changes can come in term of regulations since cryptocurrencies have the possibility of gaining more acceptance and security of possessing them could also improved.
