Donald Trump has emerged victorious in the recent United States presidential election, marking his return to the White House. He secured at least 295 electoral votes, defeating Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, who garnered 226. This is Trump’s second time being elected as President, with his first victory in 2016. 

Notably, during his initial presidency, the cryptocurrency market experienced significant growth. The crypto community is now closely monitoring the potential trajectory of Bitcoin and other digital assets under his new administration.

Bitcoin's Surge Following Election Results

Following Trump’s win, the Bitcoin market showed immediate positive movement. The price of Bitcoin surged by 8.93% within the last 24 hours, pushing it to a new all-time high. Ethereum also experienced a notable 8.3% increase within the same period. 

In addition, other major cryptocurrencies, including Solana, BNB, XRP, Lido Staked Ether, Cardano, and Avalanche, recorded gains, adding to the market’s overall momentum. The crypto market's total capitalization grew by 0.3% in the past day, reflecting optimism among investors.

During his campaign, Trump highlighted his support for cryptocurrencies and digital asset innovation. His pro-crypto stance resonated with many in the industry. 

Furthermore, he also pledged to remove the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Gary Gensler, who has been known for his tough approach toward crypto regulations. This pledge has fueled further anticipation for a more favorable regulatory landscape for digital currencies.

The Crypto Market During Trump's First Term

Moreover, Trump’s first presidency from November 2016 to November 2020 saw remarkable growth in the Bitcoin market. On the day of his initial election, Bitcoin traded at approximately $600. By the end of his term, it reached $14,033.10, resulting in a 2372.05% increase. 

Conversely, the subsequent presidency under Joe Biden saw a relatively modest 394.45% growth in Bitcoin’s value. This comparison has led experts and crypto enthusiasts to believe that Trump's pro-crypto policies could once again drive significant market gains.

Anticipations for a Pro-Crypto Regulatory Environment

Intriguingly, the campaign promises Trump made included fostering a crypto-friendly environment and supporting innovation in blockchain technology. His vow to replace Gary Gensler is seen as a step toward achieving this. 

Notably, the current SEC Chairman has been a controversial figure within the crypto community due to his strict regulatory measures and enforcement actions. A change in leadership could signal a shift towards more lenient regulations, which may further boost investor confidence.

Therefore, market analysts are already discussing potential scenarios for the future of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies under Trump’s new leadership. Many believe that a more accommodating regulatory environment could spur growth similar to that of Trump’s first presidency. The market's initial reaction indicates a sense of optimism and confidence, with investors positioning themselves for what could be another period of significant growth.
