BTC tops $80,000 as investors look onto Trump’s presidency
BTC hit a new record high on November 10, as investors remain optimistic that Trump’s presidency will benefit crypto. Trump was widely seen as the pro-crypto candidate in his battle with the Democratic Party’s candidate, Kamala Harris. Since he won the presidency, BTC’s price has been rising, driving a bullish sentiment.
While in his first term, the Republican candidate called out cryptocurrencies, tagging them as scams, he seems to have completely diverted from that narrative, actively campaigning for pro-crypto regulations. He even launched his own crypto platform, The World Liberty Financial, promising to make the United States the global crypto capital.
