Bitcoin reached an all-time high on the same day that Donald Trump secured the U.S. presidency for a second term. Trump has made bold promises regarding Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, including wanting the U.S. to become the crypto capital of the world and the Bitcoin superpower. He plans to focus on affordable energy for crypto mining, make changes to regulatory bodies like the SEC, and form a council of industry insiders to shape clear crypto regulations. Trump also pledged to hold onto the government's Bitcoin stash and commute the sentence of Ross Ulbricht, the founder of Silk Road. While these promises have generated excitement in the crypto community, their actual impact remains uncertain in the volatile crypto market.
