Now, as a leak reveals Russia could beat the U.S. to a bitcoin reserve, Trump has been pitched a "capital markets renaissance fueled" by bitcoin to "unlock trillions in wealth" by MicroStrategy founder Michael Saylor.

Since pledging to make America the "crypto capital of the planet", Trump's promises to enact pro-cryptocurrency policies have helped push the value of bitcoin to new records. Can the great run continue?

Trump once called bitcoin "a scam against the dollar," but he has since changed his stance — and profited from crypto.

President-elect Donald Trump has expressed interest in building up a stockpile of bitcoin. What would that mean for taxpayers?

Republican senator Cynthia Lummis has introduced a bill to congress, entitled the Boosting Innovation, Technology and Competitiveness Through Optimized Investment Nationwide (BITCOIN) Act, which proposes the U.S. buy 1 million bitcoins over five years to reduce the spiraling $35 trillion U.S. national debt.

Bitcoin pared earlier losses after capping its first weekly decline since Donald Trump’s election victory, while many smaller tokens turned higher on the day.

A top crypto strategist thinks the digital asset market is in a position to witness a bullish continuation even as Bitcoin (BTC) trades below $100,000.

Economic issues, particularly living costs, were front and centre in 2024 as some 2 billion people went to the polls.

Bitcoin analysts are expecting a BTC recovery above $105,000 in the short term, as investor interest may return after the Christmas holidays, putting an end to the lack of liquidity.

Cryptocurrency markets have soared since Donald Trump won the U.S. presidential election in November. The asset climbed from $69,374 on Election Day, hitting as high as $106,490 last week, largely accelerated by Trump's win and his pledge to make the country "the crypto capital of the planet."

The crypto market’s center of gravity is back in the US as 2025 approaches, courtesy of Donald Trump’s reelection to the presidency and widening demand for the nation’s digital-asset funds and derivatives contracts.

It remains unknown what the future holds for Bitcoin after it already reached the $100,000 threshold which was one of the top things that crypto fans and believers have been looking forward to for the top coin. But it is expected that it hasmore to give, especially as when Donald Trump officially begins his second term.
