Bitcoin, one of the most prominent cryptocurrencies in the market, has proved its relevance in the digital finance market. In its early days, BTC was seen as null and was largely claimed to be a bogus currency. But with the passing of time, it succeeded in making a unique spot worldwide especially in the United States after the historical victory of Donald Trump. Source: CoinMarketCap 
Bitcoin seems to be testing new resistance as it continues to break its prior resistance somewhere near $65. Once it successfully surpassed $65k it hasn’t looked back and until publishing it was trading above 20, 50, 100, and 200-day exponential moving average. 
As per broader claims, BTC could soon claim the much-anticipated mark of $100k in the next few sessions, the probability is that it could reach here by the first week of 2025. However on the other hand after the victory top executives of known companies have even predicted that it has the potential to cross $250k by the end of the next year. 
It is worth noting that Trump has made many promises for the crypto enthusiasts and especially for Bitcoiners, yet any favoring decision over any changes or upgradation in rules and regulations is expected, it is speculated that once Trump joins his office he might direct the administration to structure a good and favorable set of rules for the cryptos/ and digital asset market.
