Make CryptoSlate preferred on Has Donald Trump been net positive for Bitcoin? It is an uncomfortable question for many Bitcoin supporters, including me.My political criticisms of Trump are substantial and longstanding.

Still, the question matters because Bitcoin increasingly sits inside state policy, capital markets, and geopolitical competition.Once that happened, separating political preference from analytical judgment became…

Make CryptoSlate preferred on Matthew Sigel of VanEck said Bitcoin could reach $1 million by the next US Presidential term.That puts a 1,150% increase as a 2031 target inside a market that is still trying to prove it can hold the $80,000 area.CryptoSlate’s Bitcoin page shows BTC near $80,200 on May 9, with a market capitalization near $1.61 trillion and an all-time high of $126,198 set on Oct. 6, 2025.A move to $200,000, another price target being batted around lately, would require Bitcoin to rise roughly 2.5 times from that level.
