Key Points
- Bitcoin spot flows remained positive following Trump’s inauguration and MicroStrategy’s substantial Bitcoin purchase.
- Trump’s pro-crypto stance and the expected favorable crypto regulations could potentially boost Bitcoin demand in 2025.
Bitcoin’s spot flows showed a positive trend, even after the inauguration of President Trump.
Simultaneously, MicroStrategy, a significant player in the crypto market, made a substantial purchase of Bitcoin, valued over $100,000.
Impact of Trump’s Inauguration on Crypto Market
The inauguration of President Trump, a known supporter of cryptocurrencies, might be one of the most significant developments for the crypto market. The market responded positively to this event, with Bitcoin rallying to a new All-Time High (ATH) on the same day.
The optimism was particularly evident among institutional buyers, with spot ETF flows exceeding $1 billion for the first time this year on January 17th.
Future of Bitcoin
Trump has expressed his support for crypto and blockchain technology and wants the U.S. to lead in their adoption. His belief that Bitcoin could help offset the U.S. sovereign debt has led to analysts increasingly viewing Bitcoin as a safe haven against the global debt crisis.
The new administration is expected to implement favorable crypto regulations, potentially paving the way for more adoption, especially from institutions. This could lead to a surge in Bitcoin demand in 2025.
MicroStrategy, a leading player in Bitcoin demand in 2024, recently announced an 11,000 BTC purchase at $101,191 per coin. This aligns with the recent institutional demand observed courtesy of spot Bitcoin ETF flows.
While this doesn’t necessarily protect Bitcoin from potential downside, it reflects the prevailing sentiment due to recent developments.
