在唐纳德·特朗普当选以及共和党将赢得国会两院的预期之后，周一比特币飙升至每枚 81,000 美元（62,792 英镑）的历史新高。

在竞选期间，特朗普拥抱数字资产，承诺让美国成为“地球的加密之都”，并积累全国性的比特币储备。

Russ Mould, investment director at AJ Bell said: “Bitcoin is the one asset that was always going to soar if Mr Trump returned to the White House. A brief jump to $75,281 put the cryptocurrency at a new all-time high and fired up traders to speculate when, not if, it will smash through $100,000.

AJ Bell 投资总监 Russ Mould 表示：“如果特朗普先生重返白宫，比特币是一种总是会飙升的资产。短暂上涨至 75,281 美元，使加密货币创下历史新高，并引发交易者猜测其何时（而不是是否）突破 100,000 美元。

“Mr Trump has already declared his love of the digital currency and crypto traders now have a new narrative by which to get even more excited about where the price could go.”

“特朗普先生已经宣布了他对数字货币的热爱，加密货币交易者现在有了新的叙述方式，可以对价格的走向更加兴奋。”

The Bitcoin price is up 95pc so far this year, and over 800,000pc since it started trading on crypto exchanges over a decade ago, according to data from eToro.

根据 eToro 的数据，今年迄今为止，比特币价格已上涨 95%，自十多年前开始在加密货币交易所交易以来，已上涨超过 800,000%。

Dubbed “digital gold”, Bitcoin has also been touted as a hedge against inflation. But the world’s most famous cryptocurrency has a chequered history and its price is notoriously volatile.

比特币被称为“数字黄金”，也被吹捧为对冲通胀的工具。但世界上最著名的加密货币有着一段曲折的历史，而且其价格波动也是出了名的。
