CoinMarketCap <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">data </a>revealed that Bitcoin traded above $89,000 on November 12 as markets continued to respond to the Republican candidate’s win. The data also indicated the asset had gained 30% in value in the past seven days.&nbsp;
The price surge is reportedly a result of Trump’s commitment to pro-crypto policy reforms during the campaigns. The president-elect promised to make the United States a digital asset investment hub.
In September, Trump, along with his sons Eric, Barron, and Donald Jr., launched <a href="https://www.worldlibertyfinancial.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">World Liberty Financial</a>, a decentralized finance platform. The venture reportedly drew attention to the presidential candidate’s policies, signaling pro-crypto policy shifts under his administration.&nbsp;
Consequently, Trump received support from individuals like Elon Musk, who backed Dogecoin during his campaigns. Dogecoin recorded a 152% price surge in the past week as forelooking investors positioned themselves for friendlier crypto regulatory policies.
According to Philippe Bekhazi, Co-founder and CEO of digital asset firm XBTO, the Republican policy manifesto expressed during the campaign significantly influenced the current bull run. He added that the political party had been vocal about its support for digital assets, and the market was expected to rally if the presidential candidate won.&nbsp;
Bitpanda CEO Eric Demuth commented on the Republican party’s regulatory outlook. He stated that reforming the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission into a more transparent and progressive institution would positively impact market confidence. He added that the institution was a main source of uncertainty for the cryptocurrency ecosystem in the previous regime.
