Matrixport Research: User FOMO sentiment triggers, BTC may break through $70,000 by the end of the year

The last two months of 2024 are approaching, and the BTC price is fluctuating below $70,000. Although breaking through this psychological resistance level requires overcoming many challenges, BTC has the potential to surpass the $70,000 mark by the end of the year, and developments in the U.S. political landscape will further influence market sentiment.

User FOMO Emotion Triggers, Increased Inflows into BTC Spot ETF

Under the combined influence of BlackRock's favorable earnings report and macro factors, market inflows into BTC spot ETFs have continued to increase recently. According to data disclosed by Cointelegraph on the X platform, on October 17, BlackRock's BTC exchange-traded fund IBIT purchased $311.7 million worth of BTC, and the total inflow of IBIT this week has approached $1 billion.

Probability of Trump Winning the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election Rises, Historical Governance Philosophy Favorable for Crypto Assets

Polymarket data shows that the probability of Trump winning the 2024 U.S. presidential election has risen to 61.7%, while Vice President Harris's probability is 38.2%. If Trump resumes the presidency in 2025, multiple sectors of the U.S. economy will be significantly impacted, including crypto assets like BTC. Trump's previous term was characterized by policies that supported business, a skeptical attitude towards the Federal Reserve, and the promotion of populist rhetoric, all of which provide a favorable environment for BTC's growth. Although Trump has previously criticized crypto assets, several economic and policy trends related to his governance plan will benefit BTC.

Trump's previous term was known for promoting economic growth by relaxing government regulations across multiple industries. Trump supported the repeal of financial regulatory policies enacted after the 2008 financial crisis. This overall stance is favorable for BTC and the entire crypto asset market, which view regulation as a constraint on innovation and growth.

If Trump Continues His Tax Policies, BTC Investors May Profit

Trump's tax policy design favors business and investment, implementing significant tax cuts for corporations and the wealthy. According to Trump's 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the corporate tax rate was reduced from 35% to 21%, and capital gains taxes for investors were also cut. If he adopts a similar approach to tax policy in his second term, BTC investors will benefit.

Last week, we noticed that investors had not yet begun to position themselves for a Trump victory, after which Bitcoin experienced a significant 8% increase. As the probability of Trump's victory rapidly climbs, we are increasingly likely to see a stronger return of BTC.
