21Shares' cryptocurrency research strategist Matt Mena expects that crypto investors will exhibit a 'head start' behavior before Trump's inauguration in January next year, similar to the situation before the November U.S. presidential election. At that time, investors pushed crypto prices up due to the excitement over Trump's eventual victory, and this early activity could generate the momentum needed to break through $100,000. Analysts believe that investors have high expectations for Trump's second term, as the incoming president has previously publicly supported cryptocurrencies, hinted at possibly creating a national Bitcoin reserve, and is reportedly screening candidates for cryptocurrency-related positions in the White House.
