🔎 #BTC Key Events in 2024

The influence of U.S. politics on Bitcoin’s price became increasingly evident in 2024, as reflected in market trends. Key drivers of growth included the launch of BTC #ETF's—though the price surge was delayed by a month due to Grayscale's BTC sell-off—and the election victory of pro-crypto candidate Donald Trump in the U.S. presidential race.

For Bitcoin's explosive growth to continue, practical steps from the U.S. government will be crucial. If policies and actions align with a pro-Bitcoin stance, further price increases can be anticipated.

#ETH: 0.01%

📊 #BTC Santiment: Since Trump became the 47th US President, crypto and stocks have been closely correlated. However, Bitcoin is now outpacing the S&P 500.

For years, crypto was seen as a "high-leverage tech stock," but early 2025 shows signs BTC could break free from stock market trends. Historically, crypto thrives when uncorrelated with equities. If this trend continues, new all-time highs could be on the horizon.
