Sathvik Vishwanath, co-founder and CEO, Unocoin, said: “The price of Bitcoin jumped above $80,000 for the first time after Donald Trump’s decisive victory in the US Presidential Election. The rise is partly driven by expectations that Trump will deregulate the crypto industry and create a more favourable environment for digital assets. His promise to make the US the “crypto capital of the planet” and appoint crypto-friendly regulators, including replacing SEC Chairman Gary Gensler, has fuelled optimism. Other cryptocurrencies like Dogecoin are also gaining. Trump’s broader economic agenda, including tax cuts and deregulation, has boosted various markets, including stocks, bonds and the dollar.”
