【Analyst: Bitcoin's Breakthrough of $77,000 May Be Due to Optimism in the Crypto Industry Regarding Trump's Victory】 Golden Finance reports that CoinDesk senior analyst James Van Straten believes that even after first breaking through $77,000, Bitcoin's price is likely to continue soaring. The breakthrough of Bitcoin at $77,000 may be due to optimism in the crypto industry regarding Trump's victory. Interestingly, Bitcoin has not faced sell-offs, but instead has surpassed previous highs on November 6 ($76,400), November 7 ($76,900), and November 8 ($77,200). Gold and the U.S. stock market are doing the same, first setting highs and then breaking those highs. Bitcoin has been hovering between $50,000 and $70,000 for seven months, and although it has now broken through that price range, investors are still patiently waiting for higher prices.
