Bitcoin has surged to within a few dollars of its all-time high of $73,798, which was set in March of this year. The cryptocurrency is now up nearly 75% year-to-date and has more than doubled in value compared to a year ago. Positive catalysts for this rally include the success of spot ETFs, monetary easing from major economies, and the increasing likelihood of a victory for crypto-friendly presidential candidate Donald Trump. The recent gain has brought bitcoin's price to $73,000, and it is trading in line with the broader cryptocurrency market.
