The world's largest cryptocurrency has been on fire since Donald Trump’s victory in the presidential election that spurred excitement about the digital currency. Bitcoin has spiked about 32% since the U.S. election on Nov. 5 and is nearing $90,000 level for the first-time buoyed by expectations that the Trump administration will be crypto-friendly and cryptocurrencies will thrive in a light regulatory environment. Bitcoin hit an all-time high of $89,599 in early trading today (read: ETFs Set to Soar on Trump's Presidential Victory).

While the rally was spread across the overall cryptocurrency ETF space, we have highlighted five ETFs that were at the forefront over the past week. These include First Trust SkyBridge Crypto Industry & Digital Economy ETF CRPT, YieldMax COIN Option Income Strategy ETF CONY, Bitwise Crypto Industry Innovators ETF BITQ, Fidelity Crypto Industry and Digital Payments ETF FDIG and Global X Blockchain & Bitcoin Strategy ETF BITS.

Trump embraced digital assets during his campaign and vowed to make the United States “the crypto capital of the planet.” Cryptocurrency stocks also experienced significant gains since the election. Coinbase COIN, which offers cryptocurrency trading on its platform, soared about 74% in the past five trading sessions. Robinhood HOOD, which also facilitates crypto trading, gained more than 35% across five days.

Companies with bitcoin on their balance sheet have also seen a boost amid the Trump trade. In particular, MicroStrategy MSTR jumped 19.4% following a massive Bitcoin purchase announcement. MicroStrategy bought about 27,200 Bitcoin for around $2.03 billion, the largest purchase by the crypto hedge-fund proxy since 2020. The news bolstered enthusiasm in cryptocurrency markets.

Investors are lining up bets in the options market that Bitcoin will pass $100,000 as soon as the end of the year, according to data from the Deribit exchange. Open interest — or outstanding contracts — for CME Group Inc. futures for Bitcoin and second-ranked Ether scaled records on Monday, a sign of growing engagement by U.S. institutional investors (read: 5 Factors to Bet on Bitcoin ETFs).
