Bitcoin Price Hits Record High, Breaches $80,000 Mark After Donald Trump's Win In US Election
Bitcoin surged 4.3 per cent to reach USD 80,000 (Rs 6,640,000) on Sunday, coming close to the 79,000 mark by 2:05 pm (12 pm IST) in Singapore, according to a Bloomberg report. This sharp increase is being attributed to US President-elect Donald Trump’s favourable stance on digital assets and the potential influence of pro-crypto lawmakers in Congress.
