š What you need to know
Bitcoin climbed as high as $93,477.11 on Wednesday, setting yet another all-time high priceāsomething itās done several times since President-elect Donald Trump claimed victory last week.
Just yesterday, BTC rose above $90,000 for the first time ever. It took a break during European trading hours, then took off again once U.S. traders logged on.
That means companies and countries that have been stockpiling BTC, like Metaplanet or El Salvador, are now happily sitting on hefty unrealized gains. And crypto asset manager ARK Invest is now certain that the Trump administration could clear the way for stablecoin issuer Circle and crypto exchange Kraken to go public.
