Companies like Strategy (MicroStrategy) and Metaplanet have already integrated Bitcoin into their investment strategies and now hold BTC worth millions and billions of dollars.
Also, the prices of Bitcoin have played a significant role in luring over thousands of new investors, noteworthy at a time BTC was seen as bogus and illicit currency.

Political endorsement of Bitcoin has triggered a new hype about digital currency. During the presidential campaign in the United States in 2024, the topic of crypto became one of the major agendas.
Experts in politics argue that Donald Trump’s image as a pro-crypto leader has helped him achieve his dream of the White House for the 2nd time. Soon after his victory, he showed a progressive approach towards digital assets, signing several orders to push the growth of crypto.
His moves are largely mimicked by politicians in different nations, and most recently, South Korea has got its new president who is also a pro-crypto leader.
