'Investors went long bitcoin in case of a Trump victory and a corresponding sell-off in the equity markets' Bitcoin’s price went up over $30 last night as it became clear that Donald Trump would be elected as the next president of the United States. It’s a result the markets hadn’t expected, and the markets don’t like surprises. “Last night, Dow futures plummeted,” Perianne Boring, founder and president of the Chamber of Digital Commerce, wrote the Observer in an email, referring to markets for instruments based on upcoming prices in the market, which can be traded when markets are closed. They dropped as much as 750 points. “In the first hour of trading today, the market is experiencing significant index swings, but seems to be leveling off.” Read more: http://observer.com/2016/11/bitcoin-election-night/ |

Au lendemain de la victoire de Donald Trump, le Bitcoin connaît un succès inattendu en bourse, alors que les autres devises monétaires basculent. C’est une journée bien étrange pour le monde entier, qui s’est réveillé avec la victoire de Trump , et une baisse de nombreuses bourses mondiales. Le cours du Bitcon a également connu une variation importante avec un pic à 737 dollars ce matin, alors qu’il était de 703 dollars au début de la fermeture des bureaux de vote de la côte Est. Sa valeur s’est finalement établie entre 722 et 723 dollars. L’or et l’argent ont eux aussi connu une hausse de leur valeur. numerama.com: http://www.numerama.com/business/207491-le-bitcoin-est-en-hausse-apres-la-victoire-de-trump.html |

Au même titre que l'or, la monnaie virtuelle a pris de la valeur à l'annonce des résultats des élections présidentielles américaines. L'effet Trump affecte même le bitcoin. La valeur de la cryptomonnaie n'a cessé de croître au fur et à mesure de l'annonce des résultats de la présidentielle américaine.

As I went over in an Op-Ed on Sunday, Hillary Clinton could not be allowed to become President of the United States. Call me crazy, but the world does not need openly corrupt, lying, World War 3-threatening politicians controlling Washington. Donald Trump wanted to “drain the swamp” and he is a man who gets things done, starting at the head of state. He’s already done more in one night than President Obama has done in eight years. Thank you America, for joining me and the rest of the liberty movement on the right side of history. Ok, enough about me being so right all the time…..what does this mean for Bitcoin? I’m going to give you three fast ways Trump helps Bitcoin and provides Bitcoin a much better future than the corrupt alternative.

"Not sure what to expect exactly..." That the sentiment of at least one major bitcoin exchange executive yesterday as Americans took to the polls in what the New York Times would ultimately call a "stunning repudiation" of the political system. Hours later, Donald Trump, the billionaire and former reality TV star, was elected president, but the markets had already responded. As reported by CoinDesk, many traders were expecting a Trump upset to boost the bitcoin markets, with some comparing it to a "Brexit" scenario for the global markets. In that surprise political turn, the price of bitcoin ranged sharply, trading from a low of $550 to a high of $650 when the final decision was announced.
