Bitcoin’s value surged past $62,000 following former President Donald Trump’s resilient response to an assassination attempt, sparking speculation about his increasing chances of reelection, particularly due to his pro-cryptocurrency stance. The value of Bitcoin rose by 4.5% early Monday, reaching $62,609 around 5:15 a.m. in London, marking its highest point in over a week. This upward trend was mirrored by other cryptocurrencies, including Ether, which saw a 4% increase.
