Bitcoin continues its march towards $100,000
Bitcoin has recurrently hit recent records this month on hopes that Trump will usher in a golden age of cryptocurrencies that will include greater regulation of the industry and a possible national strategic Bitcoin reserve or stockpile.
It is widely expected to succeed in $100,000 this 12 months and double by the tip of 2025.
“Bitcoin’s price continues to be driven by a number of factors, including improving liquidity conditions, increasing institutional adoption and a regulatory environment that has shifted from headwinds to tailwinds,” said Sam Callahan, analyst at Swan Bitcoin.
Another Trump term also implies larger budget deficits, potentially more inflation and changes within the dollar's international role – all things that will have a positive impact on the Bitcoin price.
Bitcoin has gained greater than 127% in 2024.
