Riding on Donald Trump’s euphoria, Bitcoin breaks through $90,000 mark

Bitcoin broke through the $90,000 level on Wednesday, as its rally showed no signs of easing on expectations that Donald Trump as US president will be a boon for cryptocurrencies.

The world’s biggest cryptocurrency has become one of the most eye-catching movers in the week since the election and on Wednesday touched record highs. It was last up 5.49 per cent at $93,158, marking a 32 per cent rise since the Nov. 5 election.
