Published

on

Bitcoin reached a record high above $90,000 on Wednesday, as the world’s largest cryptocurrency gained from President-elect Donald Trump’s pledge to ease regulation on digital assets.

Bitcoin surged to a peak of $91,000 before settling at $90,670.

The volatile asset has soared since Trump’s US presidential election victory last week, repeatedly setting new records.

Trump had pledged during his campaign to make the United States the “Bitcoin and cryptocurrency capital of the world.”

His previous term included corporate tax cuts that boosted market liquidity, encouraging cryptocurrency investment.

In September, Trump announced he and his sons, along with entrepreneurs, would launch a digital currency platform called World Liberty Financial. However, its sales launch earlier this month was lacklustre, with only a fraction of tokens sold.

Cryptocurrencies have drawn global attention, marked by extreme volatility and the collapse of major industry players, including the FTX exchange.

In the lead-up to the election, Trump reportedly became the first former president to use Bitcoin in a transaction, buying burgers at a New York restaurant that hailed it as a “historic transaction.”
