Bitcoin Whales Stock Up Amid Trump’s 2024 Election Win

Story Highlights
  • Bitcoin prices hit an all-time high of $75,000, driven by investor optimism around Donald Trumpโ€™s likely 2024 victory.

  • Analysts predict Bitcoin could reach $80,000 by year-end, fueled by strong market positioning and Republican win.

  • The Crypto Fear & Greed Index has moved into the โ€œgreedโ€ zone, reflecting heightened optimism.

With Donald Trump projected to win the 2024 U.S. presidential election, Bitcoin is seeing a sharp rise in demand. Investor confidence in riskier assets, particularly Bitcoin, has surged. Recently, large-scale investors, or โ€œwhales,โ€ have withdrawn over 1,806 BTC, worth $132 million, from Binance. This shift, flagged by Lookonchain on Nov. 6, points to a broader market optimism tied to Trumpโ€™s likely victoryโ€”something that aligns with the interests of Bitcoin supporters.

The market is cheering the current Trump wave and it seems a rally is on the horizon, letโ€™s find out.ย 

Get Ready for the Trump Wave

Market excitement over Trumpโ€™s projected win is growing, with many expecting a rally to follow. Reports from Decision Desk HQ and The Hill attribute Trumpโ€™s lead to victories in key swing states like Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Georgiaโ€”states he lost in 2020.

With these states now in his favor, Trumpโ€™s path to victory seems more secure, and this has helped Bitcoin reach an all-time high of over $75,000 on Nov. 6. Bitcoinโ€™s price rise seems to be closely following election sentiment, highlighting the connection between politics and Bitcoin’s movement.

Bitcoinโ€™s Bullish Outlook: Is $80,000 Next?

Analysts are expecting more volatility in the months ahead, with many seeing it as a key factor for Bitcoinโ€™s next major bull cycle. According to Bitfinex analysts, Bitcoin could hit $80,000 by the end of the year, driven by strong activity in the options market. Thereโ€™s notable interest in call options expiring on Dec. 27, with an $80,000 strike price. This positioning suggests that investors are confident a Republican win could push Bitcoin to new heights.

Additionally, Bitcoin recently broke through the $70,000 mark, now viewed as a support level rather than resistanceโ€”another indicator of growing bullish sentiment.

Market Sentiment Turns Greedy

The Crypto Fear & Greed Index, which tracks market sentiment, has shifted into the โ€œgreedโ€ zone, staying above 70 in recent days. This shift in sentiment mirrors Trumpโ€™s increasing lead on betting platforms, where his chances have improved steadily since early October. As Trumpโ€™s path to victory has become clearer, the index has risen from โ€œfearโ€ levels in October, signaling growing optimism among crypto investors.

Many now view a Republican win as a positive factor for Bitcoinโ€™s future, which is helping drive the marketโ€™s bullish sentiment.
