Cryptocurrency traders: share what got you into crypto, and how you feel about recent developments
It’s been an eventful few days for the cryptocurrency market, with the price of bitcoin having risen above $87,000 for the first time amid traders’ hopes that cryptocurrencies will boom in a favourable regulatory environment when Donald Trump returns to the White House.
Bitcoin reached a record high of $87,198, before slipping back slightly on Monday. The price more than doubled from about $37,000 12 months ago.
Other cryptos such as Dogecoin also experienced a “Trump pump” surge.
We’d like to hear from retail investors who have bought crypto how they have fared since they entered the market. What got you into buying crypto in the first place, how did things go for you over time, and how much is your crypto portfolio worth now? How do you feel about the crypto market in light of recent developments such as Trump’s election victory?
