Bitcoin jumps to ‘record high’ following Donald Trump’s victory

CommSec Market Analyst Laura Besarati says Bitcoin jumped to a “record high” following Donald Trump’s victory in the US election. Mr Trump defeated Kamala Harris in the 2024 US election and will become the 47th president of the United States. “Bitcoin has certainly been one of the major beneficiaries to Trump’s victories,” Ms Besarati said. “Overnight we did see Bitcoin jump to a record high … rising by over ten per cent.”
