Trump is not just a showman as many of us think of him, he is a businessman. He became the president of the United States and must be he already knows about bitcoin, cause of today it is well known source of investment. But now we may only guess about how Trump will affect on bitcoin. Well, we will see.

So far bitcoin goes up, after Trumps election. I don't if that will be continue, but so far it's going well. In my opinion he will support it and maybe he will invest too Wink
before Trump selected the price was already rise up indeed yesterday after he officially won this election bitcoin price reach the highest price this month but i don't know for sure if he became next president that will have good effect for bitcoin but i wish he will more concern to cryptocurrency world because if he do it i'm pretty sure bitcoin will more better from price side and adoption side

I don't see a huff-n-puff in the price of Bitcoins and don't expect the same because it's the nation's politics which as nothing to do with bitcoins and it's values. All I see as a reason behind the price following up is its demand that is increasing daily, and it might only affect the price of bitcoins if Trump himself takes some interest into it and allows free trading of it in US.

Trump winning the presidency has no effect at all at the price of bitcoin, apparently. Maybe in the later days, if he signs laws that will affect bitcoin, then maybe it will affect the price. But him just winning the seat will not do anything to the price. But if I am wrong, I hope it makes the price higher.
well there was a price increase of some $30-$50, but this is nothing unusual. people tend to make decisions in uncertain times and gold is also a known go to, but this is not a long lasting effect.

What can you expect for? Where on bitcoins flactuating madness and surely there's no stable on the world of crypto's but the good thing for now is we earn more profits for this one at this moment, and just grab the oppurtunity given since for now the momentum is on our side and one thing i hope is this scenario will not stop at this time so we can accumulate more profits in this raging price up.
You are right dude, we cannot expect that the future of bitcoin will continue to be progressive. Everything is a gamble though we are decentralized, a nation's decision would also affect the market of bitcoin especially when bag holders live in a certain country.

The USA aren't going to bring in a president purely for an attack on BTC.  They could fund an opperation to control the future of BTC for much cheaper (taking ovr mining dominance etc)

The Bitcoin world and all the other cryptocurrencies are just a blip on the radar. It is funny that people overestimate Bitcoin's influence on the world and vice versa. A lot of peoplein the mainstream still think that Bitcoin is a scam and a ponzi. If you think deeply about it, it is not that yet but it could be depending on what happens to it 10 - 20 years from now.

So my opinion on the Trump thing would be if he imposes more regulations then that is what Bitcoiners should be looking for because now there is a need for Bitcoin to fill that market just like how it filled the darknet. Imagine if drugs were legal and that you could pay with your credit card for them. That would suck for Bitcoin.

Well if we see a weaker USD once Trump gets into office then yeah... Probably a good move to buy into BTC as soon as you can. But right now it's all speculative and it's quite hard to predict so I'd say diversify your funds into different investments to make it a bit safer.

The markets crash every election as a sign of disenfranchisement  with who ever gets in. Those that support Trump see good gains for cheap and those against him see the sky falling and impending doom.
Markets are already rebounding so I think it was clear shock at what happened.
So bitcoin will not really see a wave without some kind of statement from Trump indicating positive pathes.

Neither of this. I realy don't think that Trump or something he does can influence the Bitcoin price in good or bad way. Bitcoin price depends on totaly different factors. I don't even beleive that Bitcoin is in his personal focus. Actualy at this moment we can't now at all what and how he will do anything. But Americans should be worried about the US dollar.

The rise in BTC price came from the big demand after all stocks dumped, not because people think that Donald Trump will boost bitcoin, anyway, I have seen conflicting news today after the end of the election, American people do not know how trump will deal with many issues not only cryptocurrencies, so we are at early time to judge Trump's impact on bitcoin.

If Trump blocks remittances to Mexico or blocks Visas then the price of bitcoin will go up.  In the first 100 days he wants to start sending illegal criminals back to Mexico and if Mexico doesn't accept them he will start blocking visas.  This will cause temporary chaos and the market might drop.  Mexico will be forced to accept the criminals.

Further along beyond 100 days Trump will start deporting more illegals and building a wall.  More chaos will ensue, the market will drop, money will flow to gold, silver and bitcoin.  Trump will force Western Union and other remittance companies to block money going to Mexico.  He will force Mexico to accept the illegals or else risk 100% border closure.  Mexico again will have no choice and do what Trump will say.

Finally, Trump will force Mexico to pay for the wall by disallowing trade to occur with Mexico.  A wall is a drop in the bucket compared to billions lost in trade.

Worst that could happen is Mexico will work with Russia and allow nukes to be located on Mexican land like how Fidel Castro did during the Cuban missile crisis.  U.S. will be forced to blockade Mexico and secretly plan for an invasion, similar to what happened during the Bay of Pigs with Cuba.

This could be chaos, folks.

"People are becoming increasingly unsure about the future of their country, and that’s why they’re buying gold and bitcoin, bringing up the price. Both are seen as investments that would retain its value in a doomsday scenario where regular fiat currencies would quickly crash.

Trump taking control of the White House might not be a literal doomsday, but it’s apparently enough to shake up traders’ behavior."

The reason why I feel that Bitcoin had an increase in price when Trump was elected US President is because the markets fell in futures trading and people are still shocked worldwide about what happened. Long term, I think that a Trump Presidency won't have much of an effect on the future of Bitcoin. Many investors are leaving the markets and investing in other commodities, such as gold, other precious metals, and even Bitcoin. There is much uncertainty in the world right now and we will have to wait to see what will happen.

According to an article in The Telegraph a lot of investors were flocking to safety either due to investors lack of confidence in their elected member or if they fear some form of restricted control. This probably led to the rise in today's Bitcoins price. Basically Trump has an aggressive attitude towards China and other economies and previously we have seen when economies start getting restricted and tariff are imposed people start looking at other ways to invest and may approach Bitcoin. In the long run the Bitcoins price would rise

As the results of new USA president, we have to admit that Trump has made some positive effect on the Bitcoin price. Bitcoin price has risen about 5% since Trump leads the election. And although many of us dislike Trump, we can not deny that Bitcoin can once again increase up to $1000 thanks to Trump

If Trump really follows on his plan to throw all immigrants out of the country then I think alternative currencies like Bitcoin will sky rocket in price because people will be trying to conceal and effectively get their money out of the USA as fast and as anonymous as possible. Bitcoin could become the main payment processor of all remittances going in and out of the country. But it will all depend on what kind of direction Trump will have towards crypto currencies and Bitcoin in particular.

I have to say, I am stumped by the election results and also the spike in the price. It seems as though most other "Safe haven" commodities

saw the same happening, so it is not just Bitcoin. Do people really think Trump will be such a bad president? He build a empire and he is super

rich, so he did something right. If he can pull the American economy out of the huge debt they are in at the moment, he will go from zero to

hero in no time. America do not need a "status quo" president, they need someone that can take the bull by the horns. I do not like the guy,

but I think he might be the better person for the job, to make the hard/unpopular decisions.  Roll Eyes

I heard he will put some risky taxes, therefore Bitcoin would be good enough to hide them. Obviously, I guess there's more behind the BTC price, but that's my 2 cents.

Yeah I (along with the cryptocoin world) see and have figured 25 factors for a strong price jump.

We all know that  even if every factor I see belongs  that there are many more factors that I (we the cryptoworld) don't know.

I still come down to this The USA owes tons and tons and tons and tons of money.  Mostly to China.

Some of Trump's biggest business moves have been restructuring of debt.

For the USA to do a 3 to 7 trillion dollar debt restructure with China  Trump is the guy to do it.  I kind of think this more then anything else is why he got in.

I see this a big move for BTC  so hold your coins. I am.

Unless Trump makes some kind of policy or some major announcement regarding bitcoin, i dont think the politics will affect the price of btc. 

Dude look at the graphs. Bitcoin started rising right when Trump was announced to be the next president of the United States by a high %.



This is the CBOE Volatility index VIX, -13.39%  , otherwise known as WS’s fear gauge. It skyrocketed up to over 20 as the election results were announced



You can add in a lot of other stocks that went red, while BTC and Gold went up.

I had a great feeling when Virginia went red. No one could have predicted that Virgina was going to be lost by the democrat party. I think this was where I was sure Trump had real chances to make a comeback and so he did, and suddendly all the polls went in his favour. The prediction went as high as 95% for a Trump victory.

I think we have the same opinion.  Besides, Pres. Trump just said "We will seek common ground, not hostility; partnership, not conflict."  And I think he will see bitcoin as a new opportunity or horizon to explore.  He is a businessman so more probably he will see potentials of bitcoins and take advantage of it.

This was an unexpected win and a lot of factors are involved that I feel may help BTC.

One factor is the large debt USA owes China.

Trump has done more then one restructure of debt. If he attempts this I think the dollar will get hurt and BTC will do well.

So i don't predict any serious movement in price, if yes, that doesnt matter in long run.

I'm disappointed with the result of elections although there is stil a small chance for change. But  I don't think this will influence Bitcoin much in good or bad way. The same would be as the result was opposite.
US dollar and economy will be much more affected and the worlds' markets will show their reaction.

I personally find it contraintuitive that the btc price would rise if Trump was/is winning. Personally, i find the guy giving a weird vibe, and i find it strange that the BTC market would react positively to such a vibe...

But, apparently, i'm wrong.

I'm not sure. But I think it may hurt the USD prices which would drive up the BTC price. Obviously it would be hard to speculate at this stage of the game but when the election results are published it will become very obvious.
That's why I notice that bitcoin price is not increasing, way to go for bitcoin. I like what is happening and just hope US would be progressive under the new president Trump. On the other hand, lucky are those who bet large on Trump to win the presidency.

If Trump stops the interferance of America in other countries politics, and starts to rebuild their home infrastructure, we can see an increase in world trade. That will be good for Bitcoin. The US is a decreasing influence on the world, their main influence now is the exporting of destruction. They are giving away most of the country - ICANN, the electricity supply network, Google, Apple, Microsoft etc. Unless they can reverse that, they will become insignificant when the world switches away from the Petro-dollar.

Bitcoin went up to 730$ while stock market in Tokyo crashes about 5%.
I think that is more than a coincident that this happens on the same day that Trump is going to be most likely elected as the next US President.
I'm really wondering how this will effect the whole world economy in the next weeks.

Trump is leading and with a high margin compared to Hillay Clinton. I can say that quite clear Mr Trump is winning now. Tommorow, Americans wakeup with a new businessman President. Hope he can  overturn the American stagerign debt.

Bitcoin prices is up now Smiley

i have been hearing that people say "if trump wins it is good for bitcoin" so there is that.

but i still believe that this won't have that much of an effect on bitcoin price. since it is just US and not the rest of the world. besides i don't think they are going to change their stance against cryptocurrenies (which has never been completely good or completely bad) now.

I am wondering if we get a solid run up in Btc and for any alt coins.

Now that a very unusual result has occurred.

Thoughts ?

My guess is a big shift in prices due to this result.
