Donald Trump’s 2024 election victory created more than 11,000 new Bitcoin millionaires.
According to data from Finbold, the number of Bitcoin wallets worth $1 million or more rose to 132,842 on November 6, as Bitcoin prices increased by 7.8% in just 24 hours.
There were 121,061 Bitcoin addresses worth over $1 million last month. This figure has now increased by 11,487 wallets, according to Finbold, indicating significant wealth gains among Bitcoin holders.
Let’s be absolutely clear, the anti-Bitcoin movement died last night. The USA will be the most pro-Bitcoin country in the world. We will have a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve. We will pass a national law to defend Bitcoin Rights. 🇺🇸

At the time of this writing, Bitcoin (BTC) has surpassed its all-time high and is currently trading at $75,428.
Can Bitcoin go higher?
This rise follows a strong month for Bitcoin, up 20% in the last 30 days. With Trump winning and gaining a landslide in the electoral college, Bitcoin gained renewed interest and surpassed previous high prices.
Analysts suggest that Trump’s pro-crypto stance could lead to a supportive regulatory change and potentially improve market conditions. Technical analyst Gert van Lagen predicts that Bitcoin could reach $250,000 by the beginning of next year.
