According to the French news agency, after Donald Trump’s victory in the US presidential elections on Wednesday, this cryptocurrency surpassed the $75,000 mark for the first time, breaking its previous record of $73,797.98 set in March.
Trump had announced in his election campaign that he intends to turn the United States into a global center for crypto and Bitcoin. In his first presidential term, he had a negative stance on digital currencies, describing them as a scam, but it seems he has fundamentally changed his position.
In late July this year, the 78-year-old Republican politician announced that he wants to be the president who supports innovation and Bitcoin, which America needs.
