Bitcoin Rises with Trump’s Win: What the Crypto Industry Can Expect from the New Presidency
The Bitcoin investors and the broader crypto industry celebrate Donald Trump’s victory in the U.S. presidential election. They definitely have reasons for it.

Given Trump’s campaign promises to support the crypto business, many in the industry saw him as the clear choice. Particularly, Trump’s campaign accepted cryptocurrency donations, and he even used crypto to treat supporters to burgers in September. All this signaled a new kind of financial strategy. It’s no surprise that Bitcoin surged to a new all-time high once the results were clear, breaking past $75,000 for the first time.
The crypto industry contributed a hefty $130 million to support a pro-crypto candidate. This investment is expected to pay off well under a Trump administration. The incoming Congress is also anticipated to be the most crypto-friendly in history. Especially, compared to the Biden administration, which practiced a generally adversarial crypto policy. Trump in his turn has promised to end this hostile approach and position the U.S. as "the crypto capital of the planet."
This summer, at a Bitcoin conference in Nashville, Trump promised to support Bitcoin miners, protect crypto investors, and, crucially, fire SEC head Gary Gensler, who has been seen as an obstacle to crypto growth. Beyond these promises, Trump’s most appealing pledge to the crypto world was his plan to establish a supportive regulatory environment for digital assets.
It's also worth noting Trump's confidence in Bitcoin’s potential. He regards it as a tool to help the U.S. overcome economic instability and handle the problem of the immense national debt. Trump also suggested the possibility of adopting Bitcoin as a reserve currency.
I'm certain that exciting times lie ahead, and one thing is clear: a new chapter for the crypto industry is beginning.
