Bitcoin and Ethereum are on track to post their most significant monthly gains since February, fueled by market optimism following Donald Trump’s election win.

Data from CoinGlass highlights November as one of Bitcoin’s strongest months this year. The flagship crypto has surged over 38%, marking its second-best monthly performance in 2024 after February’s 44% rise. This rally has pushed Bitcoin near the $100,000 landmark and cemented its status in the broader financial industry.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin and Ethereum could still exceed their February milestones as two days remain in November.

Market analysts have attributed these gains to Trump’s election victory on Nov. 5. His pro-crypto policies and appointments have bolstered investor confidence, driving expectations of continued growth for cryptocurrencies and related markets in the US.
