Last Wednesday, the value of the cryptocurrency Bitcoin reached $100,000 for the first time since it began trading in 2009, when its value was less than one dollar. It is believed that its trading value began at $0.10.
The world's largest cryptocurrency saw its value soar before falling back below that figure, thanks to Trump's promises to adopt crypto-friendly policies during his term, and for the United States to become the "cryptocurrency capital of the planet."
