The price of bitcoin (BTC) has risen to a new record high, surpassing $109,000. Markets for cryptocurrencies are showing signs of increasing optimism as this surge coincides with Donald Trump’s inauguration as the 47th president of the United States. Institutional demand and optimistic sentiment have been boosted by the pro-crypto stance of the Trump administration.
Newly launched cryptocurrencies like the Solana-based TRUMP memecoin are attracting attention from investors. After Trump promoted it on his social media accounts, the value of this token skyrocketed to $70 and holders crossed 850k globally. Its market cap momentarily put it in the top 10 among cryptocurrencies.
Even with a brief correction, TRUMP is still one of the top meme coins, just after DOGE and SHIB. According to analysts, it’s a lucrative long-term investment. Even if Bitcoin is all anybody can talk about, the TRUMP token is making waves. In spite of the recent correction, it is still one of the biggest memecoins, ranking 18th by market capitalization.
A variety of services focused on cryptocurrency payments are offered by the Singapore-based cryptocurrency company Oobit. One can buy anything from daily necessities to luxury goods with ease using crypto thanks to tether-backed Oobit’s Tap & Pay feature.
More than 100 million retailers throughout the globe accept Oobit, so customers can tap to pay with their favorite cryptocurrency assets wherever contactless payments are available.
