Bitcoin soared past the $90,000 mark, reaching a new all-time high. The world's largest cryptocurrency has seen significant gains, increasing by about a third in value since the election of Donald Trump. This surge in value is attributed to investor confidence in a perceived crypto-friendly Trump administration.

Investors are optimistic about potential policy changes under Trump's leadership. During his campaign, Trump pledged to position the United States as a global leader in digital assets and promised to assemble a national Bitcoin reserve. This positive sentiment has extended to the broader cryptocurrency market, with both Ether and Dogecoin experiencing substantial gains. 

Dogecoin, in particular, saw a dramatic increase of 150% following the election, fueled partly by endorsement from Trump ally Elon Musk. Despite the current optimism, skeptics caution that cryptocurrencies are inherently volatile and their prices can fluctuate wildly.
