Explore how Donald Trump’s 2024 election win is boosting the crypto ecosystem. Learn about Bitcoin’s price surge, altcoins’ growth, and Trump’s crypto-friendly policies that could shape the market’s future. Stay updated on the latest crypto trends and predictions!
Donald Trump was declared superior to Kamala Harris in the 2024 US Election held on November 5. Trump received 50.9% of the vote while Kamala only received 47.6%, with Trump’s voter area being much more dominant.
This victory is good news for the crypto ecosystem. Evidently, due to Donald Trump’s superiority, the price of crypto tokens has skyrocketed, and Bitcoin has even become a new ATH.
Check out the detailed explanation of the crypto ecosystem, which has strengthened again due to Donald Trump’s victory in the 2024 US Election.
Bitcoin Predicted to Hit $100,000 in Q! 2025
After yesterday BTC recorded a price of more than $75,000, today the price of Bitcoin even touched $76,391 its highest price in 24 hours. When this article was written on November 7, BTC was trading at $75,216, with an increase of 3.05%. This price is, of course, very amazing and has only happened during this US election period.
You can see from the screenshot of the Bitrue price chart above. The BTC RSI value is at 71.74, which means the buying trend is still strong like yesterday, but if it is higher, it will be overbought.
The Bitcoin MACD indicator also shows a bullish trend that could continue to climb along with Donald Trump’s victory celebration. Because of these very positive BTC indicators, many crypto observers say that BTC could touch a price of $ 100,000 in Q1 2025.
As reported from TradingView, Bitcoin’s current dominance is at 60.05%, which is much higher than BTC’s dominance on normal days, which is only in the 50s.
Crypto is Greening
The crypto ecosystem has been green since yesterday. Not only Bitcoin but various Altcoins and meme coins have also experienced significant increases.
Ethereum continues to strengthen its price at $2,821, with an increase of more than 8%. In fact, in 24 hours, ETH touched a price of $2,878. Just like BTC, Ethereum’s RSI value is also very high at almost 80, with a MACD line that has jumped significantly, indicating that ETH’s bullishness is happening and will be more positive in the future.
SOL is also no different. The SOL MACD line indicates a positive bullishness. No mistake, SOL’s price also touched its highest price at $191.90 in the last 24 hours.
Why Crypto Ecosystem Supports Donald Trump
Donald Trump has indeed attracted the sympathy of crypto investors. This is because, during the campaign, Donald Trump seemed serious about supporting this ecosystem. Trump was also recorded as stating 11 points to support crypto:
- Fire SEC Chairman Gary Gensler on Day 1
- Establish a “National Bitcoin Stockpile”
- Make the United States the “Bitcoin and cryptocurrency capital of the world”
- Retain 100% of the 203,650 BTC$BTC ($14.95B) currently held by the U.S. government
- Eliminate capital gains tax on Bitcoin
- Support U.S. Bitcoin mining
- End regulatory crackdowns (the “anti-crypto crusade”)
- Launch a “Bitcoin and crypto presidential advisory council”
- Protect individuals’ rights to self-custody digital assets
- No CBDC
- Commute Ross Ulbricht’s double-life sentence, the founder of Silk Road.
Conclusion
Will the crypto ecosystem strengthen in the future during Donald Trump’s leadership in the United States? Will Trump’s promise to make crypto regulations easier and more protected, as Trump mentioned during the campaign?

KUALA LUMPUR, 7 November 2024 – ASCARO has unveiled a new partnership with Padel Galis, the Spanish padel court manufacturer, securing its position as the manufacturer’s exclusive distributor in Malaysia.
After opening its doors just over a year ago at the rooftop of 1Utama New Wing, the ASCARO Padel & Social Club has set the standard for the city’s padel courts. Their dedication to outfitting their facilities with the finest grade materials available showcases the differences in quality and returns on investment.
“At ASCARO, we not only distribute padel courts but also manage our own clubs, and we are certain that Padel Galis courts will be a durable investment over time,” said Daniel Liljekvist, managing director and partner at ASCARO.
Price versus Quality: You Get What You Pay For
As the sport has gained traction and popularity in the region, so has the growing demand for high-quality facilities. One of ASCARO’s goals is to champion Padel as an elite sport while still staying true to its roots. Originating in Acapulco, Mexico, in 1969, padel was then introduced to Spain by Prince Alfonso of Hohenlohe-Langenburg, who built two courts at his Marbella Club Hotel.
The sport has made its global presence felt, and Southeast Asia is no exception. The tropical region is exposed to weather that can wear down a court, such as high humidity, heavy rains, and strong winds.
Salva Segura, chief growth officer of Padel Galis, explains: “The quality of the courts in a region like Southeast Asia is non-negotiable. Extreme weather conditions test the materials, and if they aren’t of high quality, maintenance and repair costs rise significantly.”
Liljekvist adds: “We’ve seen how the appeal of low-priced products can be tempting in the short-term, but in areas with high humidity and frequent rain, investing in quality is essential.”
Popular demand would lead to healthy competition, and the Malaysian padel market is no exception. Numerous low-cost alternatives are entering the market and often falling short in terms of quality. Cheaper courts tend to experience ‘wear-and-tear’ issues such as oxidation, cracking, and breakage, especially under adverse weather conditions.
Investing in high-quality materials, specifically by Padel Galis, would result in long-term savings by reducing repair and replacement costs.
A Promising Future of Padel in Malaysia
Padel Galis’ contribution to the development of padel in Malaysia will offer local clubs and players padel facilities that will meet the highest international standards.
“That’s why we are thrilled to work with ASCARO, a company that shares our vision in providing durable, top-tier solutions for our clients,” adds Segura.
“Our partnership with EcoGlobal is more than just an integration of technology; it’s a commitment to uplifting rural banking by making regulatory compliance easier, faster, and more accurate,” said Atty. Jacinto. “We believe that by providing rural banks with the tools to automate and simplify compliance, we empower them to focus on their core mission—serving and growing their communities. This collaboration marks a step toward a more inclusive, digitally enabled future for rural banking in the Philippines.”
