Bitcoin Jumps 12% as Trump’s Election Odds Rise

Published

on


Bitcoin has jumped 12% recently as Donald Trump’s odds of winning the presidential election have risen since mid-September. Many investors are excited about the idea of Trump, known for his support of cryptocurrencies, becoming president, believing it could benefit the crypto market. Currently, Bitcoin is trading at $66,857, close to its all-time high.

Trump’s odds hit a low on September 18 but have since improved, making him more favorable among bettors than Kamala Harris. Investor Stanley Druckenmiller noted that the market seems confident in a Trump win, which is also affecting bank stocks and cryptocurrencies. Analyst Gautam Chhugani predicted Bitcoin could reach $90,000 if Trump wins, as the election results could greatly impact the crypto industry.

However, while Trump’s betting odds have increased to 62%, recent polls show the election is still very close, with no clear favorite. This difference has led to speculation that a single large bettor may be trying to influence Trump’s odds by placing significant bets on platforms like Polymarket.
