Following Donald Trump's re-election, Bitcoin experiences a 23% price surge, reaching new highs above $82,000. Institutional demand and ETF inflows bolster the market's momentum.
Bitcoin (BTC) has reached unprecedented heights, surging past $82,000 in the wake of Donald Trump’s re-election as the President of the United States. This milestone marks a significant 23% increase from the cryptocurrency’s price just before the election, according to Bitfinex.
The remarkable rise in Bitcoin’s value is largely attributed to a substantial inflow of investment through Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs), with record-breaking inflows of $2.28 billion over a span of three days. BlackRock’s IBIT ETF alone attracted $1.1 billion in net inflows, reflecting a renewed institutional interest in Bitcoin. This surge in demand has played a crucial role in stabilizing the market dynamics, even as the Aggregated Spot Cumulative Volume Delta indicates strong buying activity across major exchanges.
Open interest in Bitcoin futures and perpetual contracts has also reached an all-time high of $45.43 billion, suggesting heightened speculative activity. Despite this, the market remains relatively stable, with open interest and price maintaining equilibrium at elevated levels. Profit-taking activities are modest compared to previous peaks, indicating a maturing market that is recalibrating its fair value expectations.
While the momentum for Bitcoin is strong, experts anticipate the $82,000-85,000 range could serve as a psychological resistance point. A potential pullback to $77,000 may occur to close the CME gap before Bitcoin resumes its upward trajectory. The US economy’s current strength, driven by consumer confidence and growth, further supports this optimism, although inflation risks remain a concern due to possible policy changes under Trump’s administration.
On the regulatory front, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has once again delayed its decision on spot Ethereum ETFs, citing concerns over investor protection and market stability. This cautious approach highlights the ongoing scrutiny faced by crypto markets, despite the growing traction of Ethereum ETFs since mid-2023.
In parallel, Tether has expanded its reach into the commodities market, successfully financing a $45 million crude oil transaction in the Middle East. This move marks a significant step for Tether’s Trade Finance division, aiming to position USDt as a transformative tool for global trade.
The sustained optimism in the market, bolstered by institutional participation and newfound demand, sets a solid foundation for Bitcoin’s continued price discovery. However, the economic landscape and regulatory developments will remain key factors influencing future market dynamics.
