The Trump Pump

As a seasoned researcher and investor with over two decades of experience in the financial markets, I have witnessed numerous market trends and fluctuations. However, the recent surge in Bitcoin’s value, driven by President-elect Donald Trump’s pro-crypto stance, is nothing short of extraordinary.


In a post on Truth Social, the newly-elected President Donald Trump expressed his congratulations to Bitcoin enthusiasts, saying “CONGRATULATIONS BITCOIN ENTHUSIASTS! $100,000! Thank you! Together, we will restore America’s greatness.

This increase is primarily connected to Donald Trump’s pro-cryptocurrency stance during his presidential campaign, where he promised to turn the U.S. into the “leading crypto hub globally” and suggested establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve. Additionally, Trump nominated Paul Atkins, a well-known cryptocurrency supporter, to head the Securities and Exchange Commission, replacing Gary Gensler’s strict policies. This appointment has added to investor enthusiasm.

The reaction to the market has been extremely favorable, with Bitcoin’s worth increasing from roughly $69,000 on Election Day to its highest point now. Experts anticipate that this growth could drive Bitcoin up to $200,000 by the end of 2025, considering it as a possible long-term substitute for gold.
