Bitcoin's price increased by 1.5% in 24 hours, and there was a significant rise in futures open interest, suggesting continued money flow into the market. The broader crypto market also saw gains, with Solana and other major cryptocurrencies rising due to speculative trading and thematic investments. Crypto traders are betting on a favorable outcome in the U.S. elections for cryptocurrency, especially if Donald Trump wins, as they expect regulatory reforms. The increase in bitcoin's price and open interest confirms an uptrend, while a spike in leverage indicates increased risk tolerance and potential market volatility. The upcoming U.S. elections and macroeconomic factors in Japan and China are expected to boost BTC prices.
