Bitcoin is getting closer to the $100, 000 mark, making waves in the financial world. This surge is happening because many investors believe that under President Donald Trump’s second term, the U. S. will be more friendly to cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin’s price hit a new high of $98, 367 before slightly dipping. This year, Bitcoin has grown by over 130%, and since Trump’s re-election, it’s up by 40%. Crypto-related stocks also saw a boost, with Coinbase and MicroStrategy rising sharply.
Many people think Trump’s pro-crypto stance will lead to better regulations. His administration has even proposed creating a national Bitcoin reserve. This has made many investors excited, and over $4 billion has flowed into Bitcoin ETFs since the election.
This rally isn’t just about Bitcoin; it’s also boosting the broader crypto market. Stocks like MARA Holdings and MicroStrategy have seen significant increases. Market experts are hopeful that this administration will provide the regulatory clarity that the crypto community has been waiting for.
The recent surge is also due to activity in the futures market and short liquidations. Over $88 million worth of short positions were closed within 24 hours, pushing Bitcoin’s price even higher. As Bitcoin gets closer to $100, 000, analysts are watching to see if it will continue to rise or if it will slow down.
Beyond regulations, Trump’s policies could also lead to economic changes that make Bitcoin more attractive. Analysts are looking at potential increases in budget deficits and inflation, which could make Bitcoin a more appealing option as an alternative asset.
