This recent surge in the cryptocurrency market is closely related to Donald Trump’s speech at the Bitcoin Conference over the weekend. Trump’s praise and promises to the Bitcoin community seem to have generated excitement in the crypto space. If this enthusiasm continues, Bitcoin, the flagship of cryptocurrencies, is likely to see a new peak in its price.
