Source: SoSoValue Trump Promises Pro-Crypto Agenda The surge in investments in Bitcoin ETFs is being fueled by Bitcoin’s rise toward the $100,000 mark , driven in part by President-elect Donald Trump’s pro-crypto stance . Bitcoin briefly flirted with the $100,000 milestone last week, propelled by Trump’ promises to dismantle existing crypto regulations and foster a more favorable environment for digital assets. The incoming president pledged to make the United States the crypto capital of the world, create a “Strategic Bitcoin Reserve,” and establish a crypto advisory council tasked with designing transparent regulatory guidance to benefit the digital asset industry. Bitcoin’s Stellar YTD Performance Outshines Traditional Assets While Bitcoin’s rally has cooled slightly this week, currently settling around $97,300, its year-to-date performance (+151.5%) remains stellar, outshining traditional assets like stocks and gold. The surge follows the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)’s reluctant approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in January after a court ruling. With the departure of SEC Chair Gary Gensler , a known crypto critic, on Jan 20, the path is cleared for a more crypto-friendly successor and potentially a wave of new ETFs for other digital tokens.
