Crypto still in the green with Trump's wave of red

November 7, 2024

BITCOIN continued to rally this morning, gaining after posting fresh all-time highs of $76,200 yesterday, topping its previous record of $73,700.

Ethereum has also seen a notable rally, climbing over 8% and approaching the $3,000 mark. Analysts point to President Donald Trump’s pro-crypto and pro-business campaign messaging leading up to the election for the investor optimism flooding the markets. 

Trading volumes have eased since yesterday’s surge, though they remain elevated, with the Fear and Greed Index still signalling 'Greed'. Altcoins, including Aave, Maker, and Fantom, were among the top performers on Luno, gaining in line with broader market sentiment.

As the rally unfolds, investors are watching for signs of continuation or potential pullback.
