On December 4, Bitcoin hit $100,000 for the first time in its history.
That was from under $70,000 just a month earlier.
What drove the upside? Simple… Donald Trump’s election victory.
But if you’re worried you’ve missed the upside in crypto… we’re here to assure you that is not the case.
The crypto bull run is only just beginning.
That’s because Trump’s election win represents a paradigm shift for the entire crypto market.
Today, we’ll break down how—love him or hate him—Trump is completely changing the game for digital assets… why crypto should be a part of every investor’s portfolio… and how to position yourself to capitalize.
A pro-crypto shift in regulation
During his campaign, Trump positioned himself as the “pro-crypto president”—promising a more crypto-friendly administration than we’ve seen.
He hasn’t even taken office yet… but he’s already making good on this promise.
For instance, Trump promised to fire SEC Chair Gary Gensler on his first day in office. (In response, Gensler announced he’d be stepping down from his role in January.)
In December, Trump announced his nomination of Paul Atkins to replace Gensler.
Atkins—a former SEC commissioner—is vocally pro-crypto. In the past, he’s spoken out about the SEC’s overreach and lack of regulatory framework within the crypto industry. He also serves as co-chair of the lobbying group, the Token Alliance (part of the Chamber of Digital Commerce).
What’s more, Trump created a new cabinet position: AI and Crypto Czar. He appointed venture capitalist and crypto advocate David Sacks to the role.
Put simply, we’re about to see a much more crypto-friendly regulatory environment under Atkins and Sacks—paving the way for legitimate growth and attracting more institutional investors.
Speaking of which…
A shakeup for traditional finance
In recent years, major financial institutions, including the world’s largest asset manager, BlackRock, have moved into the crypto space. And a pro-crypto administration could drive even more interest from large investors.
With a regulated environment, institutions will likely feel more confident in entering the market, bringing with them substantial capital inflows. This development could stabilize the market, reduce volatility, and add much-needed liquidity.
What’s more, with a more supportive administration, banks might eventually embrace crypto as part of their portfolio of services, further legitimizing digital assets and enabling mainstream adoption.
But even if banks don’t get on the crypto bandwagon, decentralized finance (DeFi) could benefit significantly from regulatory clarity—leading to solutions that provide easier access to financial services without traditional banking middlemen.
Another area that could see exponential growth is security tokens—which allow for fractional ownership of assets like real estate or fine art. Many crypto enthusiasts believe that Trump’s victory could accelerate this technology’s path to the mainstream. As these digital securities gain traction, they could enable more people to invest in high-value assets, creating more liquidity and wealth-building opportunities.
A new era for crypto
The crypto industry has weathered a rocky relationship with U.S. regulators over the years. Trump’s incoming administration brings hope that the market will mature under pro-crypto regulations.
For now, the crypto market is likely to remain volatile—and selecting the winners while avoiding the losers takes research. Make sure to do your due diligence when investing in crypto assets. Focus on those with experienced, disciplined management teams with a track record of success and proven technology that solves a real-world problem.
