Bitcoin Surges to Historic High Above $109,000 Ahead of Trump’s Inauguration
Over the weekend, Trump launched his own cryptocurrency, $TRUMP

Bitcoin on Monday surged to a historic high, surpassing $109,000 for the first time, as anticipation builds around Donald Trump’s inauguration as the 47th President of the United States.
The cryptocurrency reached an all-time peak of $109,350 early on January 20, 2025, reflecting a significant increase driven by optimism regarding potential pro-crypto policies from the incoming administration.
Analysts attribute this rally to expectations of executive orders that could establish a strategic national Bitcoin reserve and enhance regulatory clarity for digital assets.
This surge in Bitcoin’s price is accompanied by a notable rise in the newly launched $TRUMP cryptocurrency, which has quickly gained traction, reaching a market capitalization of nearly $12 billion and becoming the 18th largest cryptocurrency.
The $TRUMP token’s success further illustrates the intertwining of political developments and market dynamics in the cryptocurrency space.
Market experts predict that continued liquidity and institutional interest could propel Bitcoin’s price toward $200,000 this year, with various analysts projecting ambitious targets ranging from $175,000 to $250,000.
As Trump prepares to take office, his administration’s approach to cryptocurrency is poised to reshape the landscape, potentially driving further adoption and investment in digital assets.
