Bitcoin (BTC) could be gearing up for a historic $100,000 pump, and, according to crypto analysts, the upcoming U.S. presidential election may yet play a key role.

According to experts, the cryptocurrency may achieve this price milestone regardless of who wins. However, they suggest a Trump victory could serve as a short-term catalyst, boosting its momentum much faster.

Election’s Influence on Bitcoin Price Action

The market watchers have noted that on previous occasions, bitcoin’s performance spiked after the election, and with polls set for November 5, they suggest the asset is quite likely to continue the trend this year.

In a November 4 post on X, prominent analyst Miles Deutscher echoed sentiments previously shared by crypto trader Jordan Fish, also known as Cobie, that BTC was destined to hit the $100,000 mark no matter who occupies the White House.

On the other hand, he pointed out that the price of the number one cryptocurrency aligns more closely with Trump’s election odds, reflecting the market’s anticipation of a potential shift in regulatory and economic landscapes.

Deutscher indicated that a Trump victory could drive up BTC’s price in the short term, with investors anticipating a more favorable regulatory environment.

In contrast, the expert suggested a Kamala Harris win could temporarily push down the asset’s price. This, he stated, was due to the Democratic flagbearer potentially adopting a more cautious stance toward crypto regulation, which could affect initial investor sentiment. Even so, Deutscher believes it will not prevent a more sustained upward trend from eventually hitting the market.
