Bitcoin-Rally: Trump as a catalyst for new investors?

Bitcoin Beach, El Salvador - The Bitcoin remains on an impressive stabilization course! On Thursday, January 2, 2025, the world's leading cryptocurrency on the Bitstamp trading platform reached a new stand of around $ 96,500 (around 92,886.71 euros). This is particularly noteworthy, since the Bitcoin was around $ 91,300 on Monday and thus showed a first relaxation after the dramatic decline after the record high in mid -December. Analyst Timo Emden from Emden Research praised the successful start to the new year and emphasized that many investors could take the opportunity to enter the Bitcoin market now before the future US President Donald Trump moves into the White House on January 20th

Trump and the cryptocurrencies

The excitement for Bitcoin is also heated by Donald Trump's impending take office, since he has rubbed the crypto scene in the election campaign and promised a "Bitcoin superpower" in the USA. Since its election victory, the Bitcoin course has continuously shot up, which raises the question of whether it could be worth investing in this volatile asset class for private investors. According to Emden, however, investors should be prepared for course skipers because Trump's promises could quickly turn out to be hot air. "The disappointment potential is huge," warns Emden.

Was the upward movements of the Bitcoin a real rally or just a short -term hype? It remains to be seen how Trump will implement his promises, and if this failed, the Bitcoin course could also fall back quickly. Some investors have entered the market due to Fomo, who fear to miss something, and thus drive the course. But let's be honest: the cryptoma markets remain highly risky and can cause shocking losses. Experts like Niels Nauhauser from the Baden-Württemberg consumer center warn of the uncertainty of the market and remind you that cryptocurrencies are not suitable as reliable retirement provision because they are speculative.

The scenarios on the crypto market are through and through unpredictable. Despite all the warnings, some analysts believe, especially Timo Emden that cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin have come to stay. However, investors should keep in mind that the highs and lows of these digital currencies will always remain unpredictable, especially in the current political situation. The promising developments in the coming weeks will be crucial for the course of the bitcoin, while the financial world eagerly awaits Trump's first steps to determine which priorities he will set.
