Trump’s Win Boosts Market Sentiment

His election has intensified interest in the cryptocurrency sector, contributing to a robust 10% increase in Bitcoin’s price over the past week. Year-to-date, Bitcoin is up an astounding 91%, a rally that reflects growing institutional interest and public support for cryptocurrency.
Ethereum Also on the Rise
Ethereum (ETH), the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency, joined the upward trend, rising 1.8% to $3,190.0—its highest level in three months. The combined performance of Bitcoin and Ethereum signals a positive outlook for broader cryptocurrency markets, buoyed by regulatory anticipation and increased mainstream adoption.
