For the crypto community, the last two months will be remembered for the unprecedented Bitcoin rally that has taken place. In mid-December the original cryptocurrency broke its own 2017 record price and jumped above $20,000. On January 7th Bitcoin managed to surpass $40,000 during a bull run fueled by institutional interest, newly emerging crypto indexes and the largest economies searching to recover from Covid-19 repercussions.
Meanwhile, multiple tokens also saw surges in what has been named “Altcoin season.” Ethereum, Link, Uni, Egld, and Aave hit their all time highs, thus making the growth of DeFi one of the major driving forces behind the enhanced Bitcoin dominance.
But then came some wild price swings, which have kept investors on high alert. At the same time, discussions continue about the future of Bitcoin under new U.S. president Joe Biden.
Interviews & Op-eds
In December Solomon Brown, our Head of PR, had the pleasure of speaking with Brave New Coin. The talk was about the impact the incoming administration is likely to have on the digital finance industry in America. “My work at Freewallet and the research I have done into the various legislative approaches being taken with crypto around the world has made the topic of the US Government’s attitude to crypto of particular interest to me, as it is, I am sure, to many,” – admits Solomon. Addressing the former U.S. president Trump’s attitude towards digital currencies, Solomon concludes that it would be the best possible scenario if Biden followed suit.

After that Solomon participated in a CoinJournal expert panel on the same topic. The questions covered the correlation between the election results and Bitcoin’s recent performance, the impending U.S.—China confrontation and predictions beyond 2021. “Biden’s stance on crypto is more welcoming than Trump’s and that’s definitely supported the recent surge in price,” – states Solomon.
