Donald Trump’s promises to the crypto industry may mean the near-term bitcoin price is tied to the outcome of the election, investment bank Jefferies said in a research report on Monday. Trump promised to maintain a strategic bitcoin reserve and never sell the government’s seized tokens, he said at the Bitcoin Nashville conference last week. “His overtures to the industry to install crypto-friendly regulators may have the effect of near-term BTC price being tied to the outcome of the U.S. presidential election,” analysts Jonathan Petersen and Joe Dickstein wrote.
