Prix de Boost Trump CampaignBTC

Bitcoin (BTC) breaks the $100,000 level for the first time in 2025 on Monday, rallies to $101,184. Bitcoin’s price rally is likely powered by a nearly 100% increase in options trade volume in the past 24 hours, according to Coinglass data.  President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration ceremony is two weeks away, and traders are anticipating pro-crypto regulation and policy during Trump’s Presidency.  Two key market movers driving the recent Bitcoin gains are the return of institutional capital inflow and a dwindling exchange supply of BTC.  Bitcoin rallies to $100,000 riding on these two catalysts Bitcoin observed a decline in interest from institutional investors in the last two weeks of December. However, Farside Investors’ data on Spot Bitcoin Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) flows shows a streak of outflows for several consecutive days before institutional interest in BTC reignited in early January. 

While headline inflation came in faster than hoped in December, investors for the moment are in buy mode after an unexpected decline in the year-over-year core rate. The closely-watched Consumer Price Index (CPI) increased 0.4% in December, slightly higher than analyst consensus and the previous month's 0.3%. On a year-over-year basis, CPI was up 2.9%, compared to analyst forecasts for 2.9% and previous month's reading at 2.7%. Core CPI, which excludes food and energy costs, rose 0.2% in December, versus expectations for 0.2% and the previous month's 0.3% figure. Core CPI year-over-year, however, dipped to 3.2% against forecasts for 3.3% and the November rate of 3.3%. The core pace of inflation is of considerable import to policymakers, who have expressed at least a modest bit of frustration over its stickiness above 3% as headline inflation fell at a far quicker pace. The price of bitcoin (BTC) rose about $1,500 in the minutes following the report to $98,500 following the report, up 2% over the past 24 hours, CoinDesk data shows. In traditional markets, U.S. stock index futures added about 0.5% after the data, while bond yields and the dollar both sharply declined.

Bitcoin $BTC returns near $100k ahead of Trump’s inauguration In the lead-up to President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration on January 20, Bitcoin has experienced a significant surge, recently reaching a record high of $108,244.  This upward trajectory is largely attributed to the anticipation of crypto-friendly policies under the incoming administration.  Trump's campaign promises, including the potential creation of a strategic national Bitcoin reserve and the appointment of cryptocurrency advocates to key regulatory positions, have bolstered investor confidence in the digital asset. The appointment of Paul Atkins, a known crypto advocate, as the prospective chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is particularly noteworthy.  Atkins is expected to implement a more accommodating regulatory framework for digital assets, contrasting with the stringent policies of his predecessor. Republican officials at SEC are expected to start revising the agency's cryptocurrency policies, possibly as soon as next week when Trump assumes office, Reuters reported on Wednesday citing sources familiar with the matter. Several cryptocurrency analysts maintain a bullish outlook on Bitcoin's price trajectory, forecasting significant growth this year.

Crypto$BTC price today: altcoins largely up; XRP, LTC see double-digit gains In the broader cryptocurrency market, most altcoins outperformed Bitcoin, reflecting an increased risk-on sentiment.  This comes after Wednesday’s U.S. consumer price index (CPI) data, which showed that inflation in December grew largely in line with expectations, while core CPI was softer than expected. A softer inflation report led to a wider upbeat mood, allaying liquidity concerns. World no.2 crypto Ether fell around 2% to $3,288.41 World no.3 crypto XRP soared 14% to $3.26. Solana jumped 6.4%, and Polygon traded flat, while Cardano climbed 2.2%. Among meme tokens, Dogecoin gained 2.3%. Alongside XRP, another standout performer in the past 24 hours was Litecoin, which surged 11% amid growing optimism over the possible approval of an LTC-focused exchange-traded fund (ETF). The coin hit $116.85, the highest level in a month.  The rally comes after Canary Capital amended its S-1 registration form with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on January 15. Analysts view the amendment as a significant step toward engaging with regulators. Such filings often suggest that feedback has been received from regulators, with the updates potentially offering insights into the review process. If approved, the proposed ETF would make Litecoin the third cryptocurrency, alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum, to secure a U.S.-approved spot ETF.
