Bitcoinโs record-breaking rally gathered steam after Donald Trumpโs decisive victory last week in the U.S. presidential election and the Federal Reserveโs approval of its second consecutive interest rate cut on Thursday.ย
While Trumpโs win boosted the marketโs sentiment, as the Republican Party President-elect is expected to fulfill his campaign promises to the blockchain industry, the Federal Reserveโs interest rate cut lowered borrowing expenses, encouraging investments in riskier assets like cryptos.
Bitcoinโs upward momentum is also buoyed by increasing institutional interest in the asset class. Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds managed by companies like BlackRock and Fidelity have attracted over $3.3 billion worth of inflows since Donald Trumpโs victory. The funds extended their positive streak to a fourth day on November 11, pulling in $1.1 billion, SoSoValue data shows.
At the same time, MicroStrategy completed a $2.03 billion acquisition of the original cryptocurrency between October 31 and November 10, energizing speculative buying of BTC and smaller assets.
