Is Bitcoin’s recent surge a sign of more to come? Bitcoin has reached a 16-month high. Its price is near $68000. This has been fueled by a significant shift in trader sentiment. According to Santiment data the term “Bitcoin” is being used more positively on social media than at any time since March 2023.

The surge in positive sentiment coincides with anticipation for former President Donald Trump’s speech at the Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville. Trump’s bold declarations to make the U.S. the “crypto capital of the world” and prediction that Bitcoin could one day overtake gold have stirred excitement. He stated, “Bitcoin is not just a marvel of technology It’s a miracle of cooperation and human achievement.”

 

Legislative Support for Bitcoin

Following Trump's speech pro-crypto Senator Cynthia Lummis introduced a bill for a “strategic Bitcoin reserve” The proposal suggests that the U.S. government purchase 5% of the world’s Bitcoin supply. They would hold it for at least 20 years. This move aims to position the United States as a leader in the crypto space.
