With renewed optimism about Trump’s crypto-friendly stance, investors are eyeing Bitcoin’s future with new-found enthusiasm.

What’s the Scoop?

  • Record-Breaking Volumes: On election day, BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin ETF saw an astonishing $4 billion in trading volume, mainly from heightened interest from investors.
  • Crypto-Friendly Hopes: With anticipation that Trump might foster a more crypto-friendly regulatory environment, enthusiasm for Bitcoin is gaining momentum.
