Crypto Equities Surge More Than 10% as U.S. Political Uncertainty Diminishes with Trump Victory
U.S. crypto equities experienced notable gains as Bitcoin surged above $75,000, coinciding with Donald Trump's anticipated victory in the presidential election. MicroStrategy, the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, rose 12%, nearing a record high. Other crypto companies, including Coinbase and Riot Platforms, also saw a 12% increase, while Marathon Digital Holdings and IREN climbed 11% and 12%, respectively. Tokyo's Metaplanet recorded an impressive 24% jump, highlighting a substantial year-to-date increase of over 1,100%. The electoral outcome suggests a shift toward pro-crypto regulation under Trump, which may facilitate a new bull run for Bitcoin and potentially unlock more diverse investment opportunities like ETFs. Analysts predict that favorable regulatory stances could lead to accelerated adoption of crypto assets in the U.S.
