Bitcoin over $ 100,000: Trump ensures crypto fever!

On January 7, 2025, Bitcoin exceeded the $ 100,000 mark for the first time. This remarkable development follows a decline in the course to just under $ 91,000 at the end of last year and is considered a relaxation. Analysts attribute the strength of the crypto market to increasing acceptance and willingness to invest. The upcoming political changes in the United States are particularly careful. Donald Trump's inauguration could be a turning point for the crypto industry, since experts like Timo Emden from Emden Research predict a future, crypto-friendly climate.

The support of the Bitcoin course has stabilized at around $ 90,000, while the current course is above the 21- and 50-day average lines. In the long term, support for the 200-day line is estimated at around $ 72,500. In 2024, Bitcoin was able to get more than 120 percent, and market capitalization is approaching the two-billion dollar brand. Overall, the value of the crypto market is over 3.5 trillion dollars, with around 10,500 different cryptocurrencies. Investors and analysts observe the political developments in the United States exactly because a possible relaxation of the regulation could lead to further price gains.

expectations of future regulation

In the past few weeks, the Bitcoin course has even reached $ 103,253, while investors rely on future, crypto-friendly regulation by Donald Trump. Trump plans to nominate Paul Atkins as the new head of the US stock exchange supervision SEC. This measure could be signaled by the resignation of the previous SEC chairman Gary Gensler, who was known for strict rules and strict measures against crypto fraud.

Experts expect that the nomination of Atkins could lead to a loosening of the regulation, which may result in the approval of new crypto ETFs. Bitcoin options were recently offered, which attracts larger investors. On the first trading day, options worth almost two billion dollars were traded on Blackrock's Bitcoin ETF. 82 percent of investors relied on rising courses (calls) and 18 percent on falling prices (PUTS).

While crypto-influencers encourage private investors to invest in Bitcoin, consumer advocates warn of the risks of the Bitcoin investment, especially with regard to high price fluctuations and possible loss. The consumer advice center and "Finanztip" recommend investors to only invest money to avoid unnecessary financial risks.
