Cryptocurrency-related stocks are also performing well. The largest Cryptocurrency exchange in the United States, Coinbase (COIN), surged 31%, with the current trading price reaching $255 per share. BTCMining company is even more ecstatic, with low-carbon mining enterprise CleanSpark (CLSK) experiencing a big pump of 23%, with a quoted price of $12.99 per share; Riot Platforms (RIOT) also rose by over 26%, with a price of $12.25 per share; Marathon (MARA) jumped by 19%, with the stock price reaching $19.35.

Trump's victory, will the Crypto Assets industry usher in a spring?
With Trump's decisive victory in the US election, the Cryptocurrency market is experiencing a 'bumper harvest.' David Lawant, head of research at FalconX Cryptocurrency broker, said: 'It's hard to imagine a better election result than this, with expectations of crucial regulatory improvements in the coming months.' He pointed out that this clarity may pave the way for more Cryptocurrency ETF products, covering major encryption assets and a broader encryption index, while providing more confidence for entrepreneurs and investors in the US token issuance sector.
However, Lawant also reminds investors to pay attention to short-term risks, including enforcement actions that departing officials may take at the last minute. It is worth noting that this time BTC set a new historical high, symbolizing its breakthrough of the eight-month consolidation period, finally rewarding the patience of many cryptocurrency investors. Cross-asset trader Bob Loukas posted on the X platform, 'From every angle, there is no reason for BTC after the election not to go all out in the next 9 to 12 months.'
Trump's policies are beneficial, and the market outlook is promising, but can they be realized?
During the Trump campaign, he proposed a 10-point policy vision at the 'BTC Conference', including establishing a 'national BTC reserve', dismissing SEC chairman Gary Gensler, making the United States the 'global center for BTC and Cryptocurrency', abolishing BTCCapital Gains Tax, etc. The US government currently holds over 203,000 BTC, with a total value of about $15 billion. Trump promised to maintain these Holdings and may use them as national reserve assets, which may prompt other countries to consider including BTC in their national reserves.
However, the Trump administration also faces some challenges in implementing these policies. For example, the removal of the BTC capital gains tax, which requires congressional approval, may be met with resistance due to concerns about tax losses. In addition, the proposal to create a "national BTC reserve" has also sparked discussions about the volatility of the cryptocurrency and the possible negative effects of its inclusion in the national reserve. There are even foreign media discussions, Trump's past bounce rate is as high as 80%, how much of this policy vision can be realized?
Institutional investors are enthusiastic, BTC breaks through ATH again at $76,000
iShares BTC Trust ETF (IBIT), owned by BlackRock, has performed impressively, reaching a volume of $1 billion in just 20 minutes, indicating a significant increase in incremental capital. ETF analyst Eric Balchunas pointed out that this may indicate a large influx of funds. On October 29th, IBIT's BTC volume reached $3.3 billion, attracting an inflow of $1.8 billion in just a few days.

The BTC derivatives financial market also shows a significant improvement in market sentiment, and the degree of leverage has not been excessively expanded, which is crucial for breaking through the $76,000 mark. The premium of BTC futures over the spot market has risen to 12%, exceeding the neutral range of 5% to 10%. However, Keith Alan, co-founder of the trading analysis platform Material Indicators, mentioned that the current market is filled with speculative behavior. Considering the upcoming Federal Reserve interest rate decision, investors remain cautious.
It is worth noting that the Coinbase exchange premium has returned for the first time in five weeks, indicating that US investors are likely leading this wave of growth. In addition, Coinbase has invested tens of thousands of dollars to support pro-cryptocurrency candidates for Congress during this election cycle and has achieved significant victories in key districts such as defeating Senator Sherrod Brown in Ohio through its 'Stand With Crypto' alliance advocacy campaign.
