1. Market Observation
Keywords: Trump, ETH, BTC
On January 20, 2025, just before the inauguration of Donald Trump as President of the United States, Bitcoin broke through $109,000, setting a new historical high. Notably, organizations related to Trump have shown a strong interest in cryptocurrencies, with his family project World Liberty Financial making significant purchases of Bitcoin worth millions of dollars just hours before the inauguration. After taking office, Trump's World Liberty Organization further invested an additional $47 million in Bitcoin.
However, the unexpected omission of Bitcoin in Trump's inaugural speech caused market turbulence, leading to a liquidation of up to $1.28 billion in the cryptocurrency market. Bitcoin traders reacted cautiously, generally waiting to see if President Trump would issue an executive order favorable to BTC. Although Bitcoin briefly retraced to $99,000, analysts remain optimistic about its future performance, predicting it will break through $110,000 to set a new high.
Meanwhile, the Ethereum ecosystem is also actively developing. The Ethereum Foundation is exploring new solutions for staking ETH as a means of paying fees and has established a multi-signature wallet by transferring $165 million worth of ETH, marking an important step in supporting the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem. Despite the Foundation's proactive measures, Ethereum's price still fell by 2% due to weakened demand. However, market experts remain optimistic about its prospects, predicting that Ethereum's price could reach $14,000 by the end of 2025.
It is worth mentioning that El Salvador continues to adhere to its cryptocurrency strategy, consistently increasing its Bitcoin holdings, which has led to market speculation that Bitcoin's price may break the $150,000 mark.
