Will usa election change the perception of bitcoin all over the world?. Trump collected bitcoin donations and I think this is the best time bitcoin should be legalized

Bitcoin has started going up on news of Trump upsetting the election

Give it a little time now, a few days, the price has alrdy jumped for 25$ in a few hours.

Trump financier himself and understands what money is. He will never allow for some currency pressure on the dollar.

The price is going up due to uncertainty with traditional markets, not because Trump is Bitcoin-friendly.

Trump never predictable President but I am also sure that he would not legalize bitcoin. I do think that it could trigger in America, the war of the elites.

Good news: Bitcoin has increased 5% since Trump led the election until he became the new president. Well, the strong impact has been made in the world stock and the market as well as the trading system. That's why Bitcoin price rise. Anyway, thanks Trump for creating a good effect on bitcoin 

Not sure there is a connection between Trump and rising prices for Bitcoin. But I do not care. For me the main thing that the price continued to rise

The price of bitcoin is increasing because it decreases the price of the dollar. This is because no one is confident in the ability of the clown trump manage America.

Do. Now America is experiencing not the best times. Sensing her weakness, the enemies will try to crush her under him.

The increasing of the Bitcoin price does not having nothing to do with the US elections or Trump win.
It is just an ascending trend wich will continue until the end of the year (my opinion)

The shocking news of Donald Trump’s election victory rattled markets across the world, leading some investors to seek refuge in assets outside of stocks and bonds. The price of gold surged, as it usually does during times of uncertainty, but it wasn’t the only asset to benefit.

The cryptocurrency bitcoin also jumped to a recent high of $738 overnight, and was trading at around $726 on Wednesday morning according to Coindesk. That represents around a 3% increase from the $708 mark that was yesterday’s bitcoin price.

The price jump did not, however, extend to other forms of digital money. The prices of Ethereum and Ripple, which are the second and third biggest cryptocurrencies by market cap, are actually down from yesterday, by around 2% and 1% respectively,.

Yeah.... I think it should go up. Unlike Hillary, Trump is not openly anti-Bitcoin. He is not a favorite of the banking cartel. Hillary might have banned the exchanges and the possession of Bitcoins.

Trump can start to advertise Bitcoin, but there are not so many BTC users - Blockchain have around 8 millions wallets from around the world, so most possible 70% from them are from USA - so around 5.6 millions from USA. It is not so many - US have 325 millions people now.

I had always believed Hillary would win the election, guess Americans can be quite unpredictable. :-\

Trump won't affect bitcoin negatively.

I was too shocked from the choice of American voters. I am confident that this choice will not affect the fate of bitcoin. He has no prospects for any President.

 Trump presidency to push price of Bitcoin higher   
The transaction volume for bitcoin is predicted to more than triple this year, helped by the prospects of a Donald Trump presidency, according to a market study released this week.

The price of the digital currency could climb in the event of Trump winning the U.S. presidential election, which some market commentators expect to lead to market turmoil.
the Economist Intelligence Unit ranks his presidency within the Top 10 global risks,"

We still have to wait and see what Trump will actually do during his presidency. As long as he doesn't attack bitcoin then it is all good.

Any major developments that could sow panicky sentiment in the financial markets will benefit bitcoin to a varying extent, no doubt about that. Given that Trump is viewed as more of a threat to big businesses, at least for now, this is definitely a possibility.

I foresee a center right Presidency, very similar to that of Bill Clinton's. He won't attack Bitcoin because he can't. Even countries that have "banned" Bitcoin have wallets.

well I don't think there's going to be any direct effect be it negative or positive. as we can see right now, bitcoin is continuing it's trend of rising which is what's happening even before the elections. Though I've heard that Clinton would be the preferred president to kind of support bitcoin, I don't think there are any reason why trump won't do the same.

No one is interested in the legalization, and even more so in its use. Especially that nobody knows what bitcoin is backed by and why he has such a price.

Bitcoin low interest. Until people will not push for its legalization, no one will raise this issue. If it is to silence the demand for legalization will disappear by itself.

We are all just fine without legalization.
I think it will even bring more problems if btc will be legalized and we may not be able to store much and the government may tax the profit we get instead of getting the whole amount into our pockets. Hope Trump will ignore the cryptos.

I also strongly against the legalization of Bitcoin. Because then he would be no different from the Fiat. Impose a tax on it, will be removed and the privacy ... what remains of the legendary Bitcoin? One name

Wait, what? You are against legalization of Bitcoin? Bitcoin isn't illegal. The rest of your post isn't really making any sense.

They want to legalize because they want to protect us from fraud. But, since today it is not legalized but we are the one having control of our bitcoin and its up to us if we do fraudulent activities. Though its hard when we got scammed but they want to be legalized because they want to have a share on bitcoin.

That's it - the main goal of the government to protect us from fraud and get a share of Bitcoin. And I do not like
