As Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) nears the $106,000 mark, the probability of the U.S. establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve has surged to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42049183/heres-how-a-bitcoin-whale-nets-179m-from-a-120-investment">an all-time high of 70%</a>.
What Happened: Well-known venture capitalist and Bitcoin enthusiast Anthony Pompliano shared data indicating a significant increase in the likelihood of incoming president Donald Trump creating a strategic Bitcoin reserve in 2025.
This information was shared as Bitcoin briefly hit the $106,000 mark before experiencing a minor pullback. The cryptocurrency is currently trading at $103,120 per coin, marking&nbsp;a 2.71% decline within several&nbsp;hours.
The speculation surrounding the new presidential administration&#8217;s plans to approve&nbsp;the creation of a strategic&nbsp;Bitcoin reserve has been a key factor in the cryptocurrency&#8217;s recent price surge.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">The odds of a strategic bitcoin reserve just hit an all-time high of 70%. <a href="https://t.co/A1ZjppwKQj">pic.twitter.com/A1ZjppwKQj</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Another significant factor driving Bitcoin&#8217;s price is the upcoming inauguration of President Donald Trump on January 20.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has also recently received court permission to sell 69,370 BTC seized from a Silk Road hacker in 2020.
The sale could net the US government over $7 billion, but many in the crypto community hope President Trump will prevent the sale and retain the Bitcoin for the proposed strategic reserve.
Why It Matters: The establishment of a strategic Bitcoin reserve by the US government would be a significant endorsement for the cryptocurrency, potentially driving its value even higher. 
The move would also mark a shift in the government&#8217;s stance towards cryptocurrencies, which have been viewed with skepticism by some regulators.
The potential sale of the seized Bitcoin by the DOJ could also have a significant impact on the market. If the sale goes ahead, it could flood the market with Bitcoin, potentially driving down the price.

Odds of US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Under Trump Skyrocket as BTC Nears $106,000

New York Mayor Eric Adams met with President-elect Donald Trump at his West Palm Beach golf club <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42323060/nyc-mayor-eric-adams-takes-victory-lap-remember-yall-laughed-when-i-first-got-my-bitcoin-whos-laughing-now" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">just days before the inauguration</a>.
The meeting, which lasted around an hour, focused on a range of issues concerning New York City, including border security, the deportation of violent offenders, and ways the federal government could assist with the city&#8217;s needs, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/eric-adams-donald-trump-meeting/" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a> CBS News.
Adams also highlighted discussions on improving public safety through the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas and the potential for bringing manufacturing jobs back to New York, especially in the Bronx.
In a statement, Adams described the conversation as productive, emphasizing the importance of federal investments in New York, particularly regarding infrastructure and public safety, CBS News adds. He noted that working with the federal government is crucial to the success of New York City.
While the meeting itself was not surprising, as Adams has consistently shown a willingness to engage with all levels of government, some of his political opponents raised concerns about an ulterior motive.

There were speculations that Adams might be seeking a pardon from Trump in light of his ongoing corruption charges.
Adams, however, dismissed these claims, stating that his primary focus was on securing federal assistance for New York.
He reaffirmed his intention to collaborate with the incoming administration for the benefit of the city&#8217;s residents, CBS News adds.
This meeting came as preparations were underway for Trump's inauguration, including heightened security measures in Washington, D.C. With the inauguration now moved indoors due to freezing temperatures, security concerns remain a priority as 250,000 guests, including prominent figures, prepare to attend.

Mayor Eric Adams Meets Donald Trump Before Inauguration: Focus on NYC Priorities and Federal Help

In the wake of the launch of a meme coin themed to President-elect Donald Trump, the cryptocurrency Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>) has surged 15% on Saturday.
What Happened: According to Coinmarketcap, the SOL token of Solana experienced a significant value increase following the launch of a Trump-themed meme coin on the Solana blockchain. 
On Saturday, SOL&#8217;s price soared more than 15% to $254.71. The newly introduced meme coin, named &#8220;Official Trump&#8221; (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">TRUMP</a>), was unveiled on Trump&#8217;s social media accounts late Friday and has since garnered more than $5 billion, making it the largest meme coin on the Solana network, according <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/categories/solana-meme-coins">to</a> CoinGecko.
Trump himself, and entities directly connected to him, have earned as much as $25 billion from the offering, <a href="https://www.axios.com/2025/01/18/trump-meme-coin-25-billion">according</a> to Axios.
This development is timed ahead of Trump&#8217;s inauguration on Monday, which is anticipated to usher in a new era of innovation and productivity in the crypto industry. It also coincides with the conclusion of Gary Gensler&#8216;s term as chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Solana,&nbsp;the fourth-largest cryptocurrency by market&nbsp;cap, was established in 2020 as a quicker and more affordable alternative to Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>). It hosts&nbsp;popular meme coins like dogwifhat and&nbsp;Pudgy Penguins, in addition to&nbsp;decentralized finance (DeFi) and gaming&nbsp;projects.
The decision deadline&nbsp;for potential ETFs from Bitwise,&nbsp;VanEck, 21Shares, and Canary is January 25. ProShares&nbsp;also filed for four different&nbsp;ETFs based on SOL on Friday.
Why It Matters: The introduction of the Trump-themed memecoin and its subsequent success highlights the growing influence of political figures on the cryptocurrency market. 
The surge in Solana&#8217;s value following the meme coin&#8217;s launch underscores the potential of such themed coins to drive market trends. With the end of Gensler&#8217;s term, the crypto industry is poised for potential regulatory changes that could further impact the market dynamics.

Solana Skyrockets, Sees 15% Surge Following Launch Of Trump-Themed Meme Coin

Major players in the cryptocurrency industry have made substantial donations to President-elect <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42379899/trump-fuels-bitcoin-rally-but-where-will-it-go-next-year">Donald Trump&#8216;s inaugural fund</a>.
What Happened: Companies such as&nbsp;Ripple,&nbsp;Coinbase,&nbsp;Kraken,&nbsp;Robinhood, and&nbsp;Circle&nbsp;have collectively donated a minimum of $10 million to the inauguration fund since Election Day. 
According to a report <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2025/01/17/crypto-money-trump-inauguration-00199088">by</a> Politico, these contributions will be used to finance official events related to the inauguration, symbolizing the industry&#8217;s support for Trump, who is anticipated to be the first U.S. president with a clear pro-crypto stance.
The cryptocurrency industry also hosted a sold-out unofficial inaugural ball on Friday night at the Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium in Washington. The event, which included Snoop Dogg as a musical guest, was partly organized by David Bailey, who manages a Bitcoin conference where Trump was a speaker last summer.

Ripple, currently facing&nbsp;enforcement action from the SEC, has&nbsp;donated $5 million in digital&nbsp;tokens to the inaugural committee.&nbsp;U.S. crypto exchanges Coinbase and&nbsp;Kraken, as well as stablecoin company Circle, each donated $1 million. Online brokerage Robinhood made a contribution of $2 million.
Why It Matters: These donations have sparked controversy, with Democrats and watchdog groups accusing the president of trading influence. However, the crypto industry perceives this as a celebratory moment and a chance to interact with the incoming administration. 
Amid ongoing regulatory uncertainties, these firms are likely seeking to build a strong relationship with the new administration, hoping for a more favorable regulatory climate for cryptocurrencies.

Crypto Firms Donate Millions to Trump Inaugural Fund, Host Unofficial Ball Featuring Snoop Dogg

According to the New York Post. According to the New York Post, creating &#8220;a modern-day Berkshire Hathaway&#8221; is no mean feat, but that&#8217;s exactly what billionaire investor and hedge fund manager <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/01/42991402/bill-ackman-backs-former-hedge-funder-whitney-tilson-for-nyc-mayor">Bill Ackman</a> intends to do. The Pershing Square CEO plans to increase his stake in real estate company Howard Hughes Holdings and take the company private.&nbsp;
Ackman said in a letter to investors that Pershing currently holds a 37.6% stake in HHH and plans to offer $85 a share to buy out the rest of the firm.

&#8220;With apologies to Mr. Buffet, HHH would become a modern-day <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/43004055/warren-buffett-has-advice-for-people-trying-to-get-rich-by-copying-his-moves-you-can-piggyback-but-you-cant-buy-the-whole-businesses">Berkshire Hathaway </a>that would acquire controlling interests in operating companies,&#8221; Ackman, 58, who has a net worth of $9.2 billion, wrote.&nbsp;
Following the news, Howard Hughes shares increased 9.5% to $78.62. Ackman has been involved with the real estate company for a decade and only stepped down from its board in April after serving as its chairman since 2010.
&#8220;We, like other long-term shareholders and this board, have been displeased with the company&#8217;s stock price performance,&#8221; Ackman said in the letter, according to<a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/deals/billionaire-ackmans-pershing-square-offers-85-per-share-rest-howard-hughes-2025-01-13/#:~:text=Ackman%20has%20been%20personally%20involved,Sign%20up%20here."> Reuters</a>. When the deal is complete, it would increase Pershing Square&#8217;s stake in Howard Hughes to somewhere between 61% and 69%, depending on how many investors agree to be bought out from the 38% it currently holds.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Roots Of Howard Hughes</h2>
Howard Hughes was an offshoot of real estate investment trust General Growth Properties, forming its own entity in 2010. It owns and manages various types of US real estate, including commercial, residential and mixed-use. It has a market value of $3.6 billion.&nbsp;
Ackman formed Pershing Square in 2004. One of his most notable moves was the rescue of mall operator General Growth Properties, from which he became involved in Howard Hughes. According to Forbes, Pershing Square&#8217;s stock portfolio is concentrated in seven companies, including Chipotle, Hilton and Google parent Alphabet, the latter of which he has over 20% of its stock invested, according to<a href="https://www.fool.com/investing/2024/02/26/billionaire-bill-ackman-20-percent-1-stock/#:~:text=resources%2C%20and%20more.-,Billionaire%20Bill%20Ackman%20Has%20Nearly%2020%25%20of%20His%20Pershing%20Square,in%201%20%22Magnificent%20Seven%22%20Stock&amp;text=Bill%20Ackman's%20firm%20took%20advantage,strength%20are%20all%20attractive%20traits"> </a>The Motley Fool.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Shrewd Gamble On Alphabet</h2>
Ackman has been bullish on Google&#8217;s parent company, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/43014233/google-expands-collaboration-with-associated-press-to-deliver-up-to-date-information-in-gemini-ai-app">Alphabet</a>. When Google&#8217;s answer to ChatGPT, Bard, stumbled and the share price dropped, Ackman began aggressively buying stock. His Pershing Square hedge fund owns class A and class C shares of the tech giant worth roughly $2.1 billion as of June 30, 2024. It was a prescient move. In the second quarter of 2024, Google Cloud revenue increased 29% to $10.3 billion. Its operating income almost tripled year over year to $1.17 billion. Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai said in the Q2 earnings call that his company&#8217;s generative AI solutions &#8220;have already generated billions in revenues and are being used by more than 2 million developers.&#8221;
In emulating Berkshire Hathaway with his Howard Hughes purchase, Ackman is again carefully treading in Warren Buffet&#8217;s footsteps. Preferring to look at a company&#8217;s enduring competitive advantage over short-term stumbles is a classic Berkshire Hathaway move. Ackman has been quite open about sticking to the Buffet playbook. &#8220;I&#8217;ve been a kind of Warren Buffett devotee,&#8221; he told<a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2023/09/28/cnbc-transcript-pershing-square-capital-management-ceo-bill-ackman-speaks-with-cnbcs-scott-wapner-live-during-the-cnbc-delivering-alpha-conference-today.html"> CNBC</a> in 2023. &#8220;He&#8217;s been my unofficial mentor for many years.&#8221;&nbsp;

Bill Ackman Offers $1B For Real Estate Giant Howard Hughes To Emulate Berkshire Hathaway

President-elect <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Donald Trump</a> has confirmed that his inaugural address on Monday will take place indoors in the Capitol Rotunda due to dangerously <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/01/43036258/polar-vortex-brings-winters-coldest-air-for-trumps-inauguration-day-what-it-means-for-utilities-retailers-energy-stocks" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">cold weather in Washington, D.C.</a>
The move comes as temperatures are expected to plunge into the teens, with the wind chill making it feel even colder, BBC <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ceq9917rl18o" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
Trump announced the move indoors on his Truth Social platform, saying he didn't want anyone to be harmed by the extreme conditions, particularly the tens of thousands of law enforcement, first responders, and supporters expected to attend.
The inaugural parade, as well as the three official inaugural balls, will also be moved indoors to the Capital One Arena in downtown Washington, about a mile from the Capitol.
While the change in venue is a historic first for a U.S. presidential inauguration, it is not unprecedented.
The last time an inauguration was held indoors was in 1985 at the start of President Ronald Reagan's second term, when similarly harsh weather forced the ceremony indoors, BBC adds.

Polymarket Traders Say There&#8217;s A Chance</a>
Temperatures in Washington on Inauguration Day are expected to be unusually cold, with lows dipping to 12°F (-11°C) and highs reaching only 23°F (-5°C).
The cold is part of a larger polar vortex affecting much of the country.
For those planning to attend, Trump advised on social media to "dress warmly" if they decide to brave the elements, though he emphasized that everyone's safety would come first, BBC reports.
In addition to the indoor address, a live viewing of the inaugural speech will be available at the Capital One Arena.
Trump, who plans to visit the arena after his swearing-in ceremony, expressed confidence that the event would still be memorable and safe for all involved.
Despite the changes, Trump reassured his supporters that the inauguration would still be a historic occasion, calling for a united effort to "Make America Great Again."
Although attendance will be limited due to the indoor setting, the event will be broadcast widely, allowing many to witness the occasion from afar.

Dangerous Temperatures Force Trump Inauguration Indoors

Top banks reported strong earnings this week, with impressive results from Wells Fargo &amp; Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>) and Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>).
Despite significant gains in their stock prices, analysts believe these banks still have room for growth, thanks to lower price-to-earnings multiples compared to the broader market, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/01/17/jim-cramer-parses-bank-earnings-stocks-have-quite-a-bit-more-upside.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a> CNBC.
Investors who owned shares in these banks likely benefitted from the positive earnings reports, with some experts suggesting adding one or two of these names to portfolios moving forward.
Jim Cramer, the host of CNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Mad Money,&#8221; reviewed the week&#8217;s earnings and expressed confidence in the banking sector&#8217;s continued potential.
Cramer also discussed how next week&#8217;s market could be influenced by the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump, who is expected to take action on deregulation and other pro-business policies, CNBC reports.

Cramer noted he is optimistic about results from 3M Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MMM#NYSE">MMM</a>) and United Airlines Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>), predicting a strong quarter for both.
He is especially bullish on GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GEV#NYSE">GEV</a>), citing the growing demand for energy in the data center sector, though he is more cautious about Halliburton Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HAL#NYSE">HAL</a>)&nbsp;&nbsp;due to market uncertainties.
With earnings rolling in and political changes ahead, investors should stay vigilant, as market conditions could shift quickly in the coming days. Cramer&#8217;s advice is to keep an eye on both corporate performance and potential regulatory changes under the new administration, CNBC adds.

Jim Cramer's Market Outlook: Strong Earnings, Trump Inauguration, and What's Next for Investors

If your car has started breaking down or is racking up repair bills, it might be time for a replacement. But how much car can you afford?&nbsp;
Financial expert <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42467913/dave-ramsey-warns-against-hammock-parenting-7-2-million-able-bodied-men-arent-even-looking-for-work-and-its-not-their-fault">Dave Ramsey</a> has a straightforward answer: only buy what you can pay for in cash. This principle could save you thousands and help you avoid the trap of long-term debt.
Financing might seem easy, but it can cost significantly more in the long run. As of late 2024, the average interest rate for a new-car loan was 6.6%, while used car loans averaged 10.8%, according to Edmunds.com.&nbsp;
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>Many are using retirement income calculators to check if they&#8217;re on pace —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-do-i-calculate-my-retirement-income-adv"> here&#8217;s a breakdown on what&#8217;s behind this formula.</a></li>
<li>Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>
</ul>
That means financing a $30,000 car for five years at 6.6% interest would add over $5,300 in extra costs. Ramsey's advice is simple: avoid the debt and stick to what you can pay up front.
To set your budget, start by looking at your savings.&nbsp;
How much can you spend without affecting your other financial priorities? If you have debt to pay off or are saving for a house, those goals should come first. If you're trading in your current car, tools like Kelley Blue Book can help estimate its value and add that to your budget.&nbsp;
Ramsey also recommends a key rule: the total value of all your vehicles should not exceed half your annual income. For example, if you earn $70,000 a year, your cars' combined value should stay under $35,000. This guideline helps prevent tying up too much of your wealth in assets that lose value over time.

Depreciation is a big reason to think twice about buying a new car. According to a 2024 report by LeaseLoco, new cars can lose up to 20% of their value in the first year and nearly 50% within three years.&nbsp;
Ramsey suggests avoiding new cars unless you have a net worth of at least one million dollars. Opting for a reliable used car can save you thousands while still providing a dependable ride.
It's also important to factor in the cost of owning a car beyond the sticker price. In 2024, AAA estimated the average annual cost of owning a vehicle – including fuel, maintenance and insurance – at $12,297.&nbsp;

According to CarEdge, luxury vehicles often incur higher maintenance and repair costs than standard cars. For instance, the 10-year maintenance cost for a BMW 7 Series is approximately $14,768, whereas a standard Toyota Camry averages around $4,203 over the same period.&nbsp;
Even hybrids and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/10/41198502/toyota-slows-down-ev-production-amid-industrywide-shift-heres-why-theyre-changing-course">electric vehicles</a> may not always provide the savings you expect, given their higher up front prices.
If your current vehicle still runs, Ramsey suggests keeping it while you save for your next one. Set a goal based on the cost of the car you want and divide that amount by the months you plan to save.&nbsp;
For instance, saving $1,250 monthly could get you $15,000 in a year – without a single loan payment. If your car breaks down unexpectedly, repairing it or using your emergency fund may be better than rushing into a new purchase.

Dave Ramsey Warns: 'Asking How Much a Month' Could Cost You $10,000 Extra On Your Car Purchase

Elon Musk has stirred the pot with a recent post on X shifting &#8220;from MAGA to MEGA&#8221; to &#8220;Make Europe Great Again!&#8221;
What Happened: On Saturday, Musk&nbsp;took to X to express his new vision, transitioning from MAGA to MEGA. His post has since garnered significant attention, with over 28.7 million views.

Musk&#8217;s post, &#8220;From MAGA to MEGA: Make&nbsp;Europe Great Again!&#8221; implies a shift in focus towards Europe, a region that has been a significant player in the global tech and automotive industries.
The slogan associated with Hungary&#8217;s hard-right Prime Minister Viktor Orban has sparked controversy among European political leaders.
Last week on Thursday, the European Commission demanded documents related to X&#8217;s &#8220;recommender systems,&#8221; which suggest content to users.

Why It Matters: Musk&#8217;s tweet comes at a time when Europe is striving to establish itself as a leader in the tech and automotive sectors. His call to &#8220;Make Europe Great Again&#8221; could be seen as a rallying cry for European innovation and progress.
As the CEO of&nbsp;Tesla Inc.&nbsp;and&nbsp;SpaceX, Musk&#8217;s words carry weight in the industry. His endorsement of Europe&#8217;s potential could stimulate further growth and investment in the region.
However, Musk&#8217;s post also raises questions about his future plans. Could this be a hint towards a greater European focus for his companies, or is it merely a commentary on the current global landscape? Only time will tell.

Elon Musk Sparks Controversy With Hard-Right 'Make Europe Great Again!' Post

The cryptocurrency sector is optimistic of what is to come with Donald Trump serving as the next president. Optimism comes as many cryptocurrencies have hit all-time highs since Trump won the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41778425/bitcoins-all-time-high-a-groundbreaking-milestone-and-strong-post-election-rally-coming-ex">2024 presidential election.</a>
A new Benzinga reader poll predicts which cryptocurrency could have the best return early in Trump's presidency.
What Happened: Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43065423/donald-trump-to-mention-bitcoin-or-crypto-at-the-inauguration-polymarket-traders-say-theres-a-chance">will be sworn in </a>as the next president of the United States on Monday, marking his second non-consecutive term as the leader of the country.
The stock market will be closed on Monday in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, which is a federal holiday.
While investors won't be able to buy and sell stocks that could be mentioned individually or part of sectors that are highlighted during Trump's inauguration speech, the cryptocurrency market will be open.
"Which crypto will pump the most on Donald Trump's Inauguration Day?" Benzinga recently asked readers.
Here were the results:
<ul>
<li>XRP Token (CRYTO:XRP): 41%</li>
<li>Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>): 35%</li>
<li>Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>): 14%</li>
<li>None, Crypto Will Crash: 7%</li>
<li>Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/shib/usd">SHIB</a>): 4%</li>
</ul>
The winner of the poll was XRP Token, which is one of the top gaining cryptocurrencies over the last year. XRP, which is from Ripple Labs, has been in the spotlight a lot recently, including thanks to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/42865935/trump-meets-top-ripple-executives-ceo-says-strong-start-to-2025-as-technicals-favor-xrp-bulls">visit by Ripple executives</a> to meet with Trump.
The poll saw only 7% of readers predict that cryptocurrency would crash on Monday, which could end up being the result of sell the news as cryptos trade higher ahead of Monday.
If Trump announces cryptocurrency related initiatives on Monday, the sector could see strength, but likewise cryptos could fall if he minimizes the sector in his speech.
Why It's Important: Benzinga readers have selected XRP and Bitcoin as winners in several polls, which won't make the latest results a huge surprise.
An early<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42378513/can-bitcoin-ethereum-dogecoin-shiba-inu-or-solana-beat-xrp-in-2025-poll-says-yes-one-coin-stands-out"> December 2024 poll </a>asked Benzinga readers if any of several hand-picked cryptocurrencies would outperform XRP in 2025.
The results were:
<ul>
<li>Bitcoin: 28%</li>
<li>Solana: 15%</li>
<li>Dogecoin: 13%</li>
<li>Ethereum: 10%</li>
<li>Shiba Inu: 10%</li>
<li>Hedera: 1%</li>
<li>None of the Above: 24%</li>
</ul>
Bitcoin won the poll with 28% of readers believing the leading cryptocurrency will outperform the other options in 2025.
Ranking second in the poll was None of the Above, which means 24% of readers think XRP will outperform the other six cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin in 2025.
Here are the current returns of the cryptocurrencies in the new poll:
<ul>
<li>XRP: 1-Month +32.0%, 1-Year +478.1%</li>
<li>BTC: 1-Month: -1.6%, 1-Year +145.3%</li>
<li>DOGE: 1-Month +3.5%, 1-Year +414.9%</li>
<li>SHIB: 1-Month -0.9%, 1-Year +155.1%</li>
</ul>
XRP and Dogecoin have already had huge one-year gains and XRP is up significantly over the last month, which could make any additional gains on Monday icing on the cake as more eyes are on the cryptocurrency sector in 2025.

Donald Trump&#8217;s renewed push for control of Greenland comes as Denmark announces a $2 billion Arctic defense upgrade. This upgrade points to the strategic value of an island that hosts America&#8217;s northernmost military installation and holds vast mineral wealth.
Located just 1,500 kilometers from the North Pole, Greenland&#8217;s Pituffik Space Base houses 200 U.S. military personnel and 450 allied forces, forming an important part of America&#8217;s missile warning system.&nbsp;
According to a report issued by the Financial Times, the base could be the reason Trump calls the acquisition &#8220;an absolute necessity&#8221; for national security.

</ul>
Denmark&#8217;s Christmas Eve announcement of major military investments, including new ships, drones and expanded facilities for F-35 aircraft, follows Trump&#8217;s refusal to rule out using force to gain control of the island. Danish Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen responded by offering to discuss &#8220;even more closely&#8221; coordinating with U.S. security interests.
The world&#8217;s largest island sits at a critical Arctic shipping crossroads and contains 25 of 34 minerals deemed strategically critical by European regulators, including materials essential for electric vehicles and military equipment.

Despite Trump&#8217;s focus on security, Greenland&#8217;s 57,000 residents maintain strong independence aspirations. Prime Minister Mute Egede, who has accelerated pushes for sovereignty, firmly said Greenland &#8220;is not for sale.&#8221; The territory currently receives nearly $1 billion annually in Danish subsidies.
Denmark&#8217;s limited Arctic presence – just 75 troops in its Greenland Command – was highlighted when a stranded cruise ship waited four days for military rescue in 2023. The gap between responsibility and capability drives U.S. strategic concerns about Chinese and Russian Arctic ambitions.
While some Greenlandic officials privately welcome increased U.S. military presence, they resist any suggestion of replacing one colonial relationship with another. &#8220;We don&#8217;t want a new colonial power. But we can&#8217;t look after defence ourselves,&#8221; one official told the Financial Times.

Why Trump Sees Greenland As A $2 Billion Security Deal

The yearlong ban that California&#8217;s insurance authority rushed to impose on cancellations in parts of Los Angeles hardest hit by wildfires was likely the last thing insurance companies wanted in the face of anticipated record-breaking claims.
&#8220;Losing your insurance should be the last thing on someone&#8217;s mind after surviving a devastating fire,&#8221; Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara said in a statement. &#8220;This law gives millions of Californians breathing room and hits the pause button on insurance non-renewals while people recover.&#8221;

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Insurers Must Write New Policies If They Want To Do Business In California</h2>
The insurance commissioner is literally holding insurance companies&#8217; feet to the fire. As Realtor.com reported, the moratorium on cancellations follows the commissioner&#8217;s unveiling of a new rule requiring private insurance firms to start writing new policies in high-risk areas if they wanted to keep doing business in California, but with the concession that they would be allowed to pass the costs on to their customers.
As of Wednesday, Jan. 15, the Los Angeles area wildfires had killed at least 25 people, destroyed more than 12,000 structures and charred more than 60 square miles. The largest by far – the Palisades and Eaton wildfires – continue to burn out of control. The fire has come at the worst possible time for homeowners – just months after private insurers canceled 1,600 policies in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/01/42933292/wildfires-destroy-celebrity-homes-in-pacific-palisades-paris-hilton-says-the-heartbreak-is-truly-indescribable">Pacific Palisades</a> over high fire risks. At the same time, major <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-homeowners-insurance">private insurers</a> like State Farm, Nationwide, Farmers Insurance, Allstate, USAA and The Hartford stopped writing new policies in high-risk areas or limited their coverage.

Faced with the prospect of having their homes uninsured, almost half a million Californians were forced to enroll in the Fair Access to Insurance Requirements (FAIR) Plan, the state-sponsored insurer of last resort. According to Reuters, more than 1,400 homes were covered by the FAIR Plan last year in the Palisades neighborhood alone, up 85% from the previous year.
&#8220;One sees relatively low premiums in high-risk markets in California, but that might be starting to change,&#8221; said Philip Mulder, a University of Wisconsin professor who studies the industry.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Massive Losses</h2>
According to AccuWeather, the total economic loss to Southern California from the wildfires is estimated to be between $135 billion and $150 billion, which will rise the longer the fires burn.
&#8220;These fast-moving, wind-driven infernos have created one of the costliest wildfire disasters in modern U.S. history,&#8221; stated AccuWeather Chief Meteorologist Jonathan Porter.&nbsp;
Trending: It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $70 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks-y2">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a>
&#8220;Hurricane-force winds sent flames ripping through neighborhoods filled with multi-million-dollar homes. The devastation left behind is heartbreaking and the economic toll is staggering. To put this into perspective, the total damage and economic loss from this wildfire disaster could reach nearly 4% of the annual GDP of the state of California.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Soaring Insurance Costs</h2>
Property owners have seen insurance costs soar over the last two years in the wake of one natural disaster after another. According to CBS News, the worst hit were <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/01/36453695/a-49-unit-affordable-housing-community-in-los-angeles-has-taken-17-years-to-build-and-its-still-not">affordable housing</a> providers, where nearly one in three policies experienced rate increases of at least 25% in the most recent coverage renewal period. The LA wildfires are likely to add crippling losses to an industry already gasping for air.
Bloomberg reports that new estimates of the insurance industry&#8217;s total losses are now as high as $40 billion and some estimates are even higher.

Dave Jones, a former California Insurance Commissioner, doesn&#8217;t expect this event to push any insurers into insolvency. Jones, now at UC Berkeley&#8217;s Center for Law, Energy and the Environment, told NPR, &#8220;It will be an earnings event for them as they say in the industry, which means they won&#8217;t make profits this year for sure.&#8221; Added Jones: &#8220;There&#8217;s no question that before these wildfires, they … were going to raise rates more. Now, with these wildfires, they&#8217;re going to be able to ask for even higher rate increases.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Insurers Are Hiring Private Firefighters</h2>
The Guardian reported that some insurance companies send out private firefighters to protect insured properties to limit their payouts.
One such company is Wildfire Defense Systems. Founder Dave Torgerson said his company is working to &#8220;break the ignition cycle&#8221; by stopping individual buildings from catching fire. They use fire-blocking gels, flame retardants and other equipment to protect at-risk buildings. &#8220;The biggest component of making a structure survive a wildfire incident is labor.&#8221;

California Bans Insurance Policy Cancellations In Boost To Property Owners. The Insurance Industry Prepares For Record-Breaking Losses

Chicago is preparing for a significant immigration raid less than 24 hours after Donald Trump takes the oath of office to begin his second term as president.
What Happened: The large-scale deportation raid in Chicago is slated to begin on Tuesday, immediately following Trump&#8217;s Monday inauguration. The action will be the initial phase of Trump&#8217;s pledge to deport millions of foreign nationals.
According to a report <a href="https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/trump-to-begin-large-scale-deportations-tuesday-e1bd89bd?mod=e2tw">by</a> The Wall Street Journal, multiple sources involved in the immigration operation&#8217;s planning have learned that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) intends to deploy between 100 and 200 officers for this week-long operation.
Chicago Alderman Michael Rodriguez is taking steps to prepare his constituents for the upcoming raids, distributing legal advice on cards. However, the exact start time of the operation remains uncertain.
Tom Homan, Trump&#8217;s border czar Thomas Homan had previously declared his intention to make Chicago the focal point for mass deportations. He reaffirmed his commitment to this plan at a Republican event last month.

"We're going to start right here in Chicago, Illinois," Homan said at a holiday party on Chicago's North Side. "And if the Chicago mayor doesn't want to help, he can step aside. But if he impedes us, if he knowingly harbors or conceals an illegal alien, I will prosecute him."
Since late 2020, approximately 10 million people have migrated to the U.S., accounting for both legal and illegal arrivals and subtracting those who departed. This influx has alleviated labor shortages and contributed to faster economic growth.
Why It Matters: This impending mass deportation raid in Chicago represents a significant step in the implementation of Trump&#8217;s immigration policies. 
The scale of the operation, involving up to 200 officers, underscores the administration&#8217;s commitment to its hardline stance on immigration. The impact of this operation will likely be felt not just by the individuals targeted for deportation, but also by the broader community, as it grapples with the social and economic implications of such a large-scale action. 
The response of local officials such as Rodriguez highlights the tension between federal immigration policies and local community interests.

Benzinga Bulls And Bears: Tesla, Apple, Meta And Dogecoin Influencers See Pattern For Post-2025 Inauguration Rally

Despite his well-known disdain for cryptocurrencies, the &#8216;Oracle Of Omaha&#8217; &#8211; Warren Buffett&#8216;s Berkshire Hathaway Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) has invested in a company that supports the cryptocurrency market and has soared by 27.43% in 2024.
What Happened: Buffett&#8217;s Berkshire had <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/05/39093145/berkshire-hathaway-profits-f[%E2%80%A6]to-despite-warren-buffets-stance-on-not-buying-even-if-all-w">initially</a> invested $500 million in a Series G funding round and subsequently another $250 million in Nu Holdings Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NU#NYSE">NU</a>). 
Nu, a Brazilian digital banking company launched its cryptocurrency platform, Nubank Cripto, in 2022. Berkshire has since added 0.3% of this company&#8217;s shares in 18 months as of the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2024. 
Berkshire increased its holdings from 0.1% in the fourth quarter that ended Dec. 31, 2022, to 0.4% in the third quarter of fiscal 2025.
Initially supporting Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>), and Polygon (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/matic/usd">MATIC</a>), the platform, Nubank Cripto, now includes Uniswap (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/uni/usd">UNI</a>) and Chainlink (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/link/usd">LINK</a>). It allows users to send, receive, and convert cryptocurrencies, including stablecoins like USD Coin.
In 2018, during Berkshire Hathaway Inc.&#8217;s annual <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/24/03/37513063/warren-buffett-says-he-wouldnt-pay-25-for-all-the-bitcoin-in-the-world-he-considers-crypto-rat-poiso">shareholder</a> meeting, Buffett famously described Bitcoin as &#8220;probably rat poison squared&#8221;. On the contrary, Berkshire has profited substantially through its investment in Nu.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42908280/intel-aims-for-cpu-market-share-growth-ai-breakthroughs-citi-reiterates-neutral-as-new-ceo-appointment-expected-in-coming-months">Intel Stock Has Fallen Over 58% In 1 Year, But Citi Maintains &#8216;Neutral&#8217; Rating On Expected Replacement Of Pat Gelsinger In A &#8216;Couple Of Months&#8217;</a> 
Why It Matters: According to its 13F filings, Berkshire held 86.438 million shares of Nu valued at $1.179 billion, as of the end of the third quarter.
With data for the fourth quarter not available at the time of writing, assuming that Berkshire&#8217;s holdings in Nu don&#8217;t change during this period, the value of these shares would have declined by 24.10% as of the quarter ended Dec. 31, when the share price was $10.36, as compared to $13.65 on Sept. 30, 2024.
However, Nu&#8217;s shares have risen by 27.43% in 2024, according to the data compiled by <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/13074755/nu-in-2024-1024x576.png" alt="" class="wp-image-730370" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/13074755/nu-in-2024-1024x576.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/13074755/nu-in-2024-300x169.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/13074755/nu-in-2024-768x432.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/13074755/nu-in-2024-1536x864.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/13074755/nu-in-2024.png 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a></figure>
While Nu offers cryptocurrency services, one can argue in favor of Buffett that it&#8217;s not primarily a cryptocurrency company.
However, back in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/24/03/37513063/warren-buffett-says-he-wouldnt-pay-25-for-all-the-bitcoin-in-the-world-he-considers-crypto-rat-poiso">2018</a>, Buffett also said &#8220;In terms of cryptocurrencies generally, I can say almost with certainty that they will come to a bad ending.&#8221;

Warren Buffett Openly Called Bitcoin A 'Rat Poison' In 2018. 7 Years Later, He Is Invested In This Crypto-Linked Stock Which Soared 27% In 2024

The crypto world is abuzz as&nbsp;Donald Trump&#8216;s new Solana-based (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>) memecoin &#8220;OFFICIAL TRUMP&#8221; (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">TRUMP</a>), skyrocketed over 260% ahead of his inauguration on Jan. 20.
What Happened: Trump&#8217;s social media posts promoting the coin have sparked skepticism about the authenticity of the messages.
In a post on Saturday, Trump announced,&nbsp;"My NEW Official Trump Meme&nbsp;is HERE! It's time to&nbsp;celebrate everything we stand for:&nbsp;WINNING! Join my very special&nbsp;Trump Community. GET YOUR TRUMP&nbsp;NOW."
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

The memecoin, trading at $23.20, reached&nbsp;a market capitalization of more than $4 billion, according <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/dexscan/solana/A8nPhpCJqtqHdqUk35Uj9Hy2YsGXFkCZGuNwvkD3k7VC/">to</a> data from Coinmarketcap. 
Crypto trader&nbsp;Edward Morra&nbsp;predicted potential market sell-offs, while commentator&nbsp;Daniel Got Hits&nbsp;expressed skepticism despite sensing legitimacy. Analyst&nbsp;Will Clemente&nbsp;noted Solana&#8217;s price surge of 4.12%, reaching $228, as investors rushed to buy TRUMP.
Why It Matters: Trump's return to the White House has sparked speculation about his potential impact on the cryptocurrency market.
Reports indicate that Trump plans to issue&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43073027/trump-plans-crypto-friendly-executive-orders-in-early-days-of-presidency-report">crypto-friendly executive orders</a>&nbsp;soon after taking office. These orders are expected to ease regulatory burdens on digital asset firms and promote cryptocurrency adoption.
Additionally, Trump is anticipated to establish a crypto advisory council, a concept he proposed earlier.
Moreover,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43062997/exclusive-how-donald-trumps-crypto-plans-will-bitcoin-xrp-solana">experts are divided</a>&nbsp;on the likelihood of immediate executive actions, though many are optimistic about the short-term market outlook.
The potential for Trump to mention cryptocurrency during his inauguration speech is also being closely watched, with a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43065423/donald-trump-to-mention-bitcoin-or-crypto-at-the-inauguration-polymarket-traders-say-theres-a-chance">31% chance</a>&nbsp;according to Polymarket traders.
Price Action: At the time of writing, TRUMP was trading at $23.20, gaining over 260% over the past 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

'Official Trump' Memecoin Jumps Over 260% Ahead Of President-Elect's White House Inauguration: Market Cap Reaches Whopping $4 Billion Within 8 Hours Of Launch

Chamath Palihapitiya weighed in on the actions of Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk amid the political resurgence of Donald Trump.
Palihapitiya suggests that while Musk&#8217;s decisions were driven by ethical considerations, Zuckerberg&#8217;s moves appear to be opportunistic.
What Happened: Palihapitiya remarked that Musk&#8217;s actions were made during a time when they were unpopular, indicating a moral stance rather than a focus on financial gain.
"Now the winds are blowing in a different direction, and I do think it&#8217;s the value-maximizing function," Palihapitiya said.
In contrast, he described Zuckerberg&#8217;s recent decisions as opportunistic, suggesting they align with the current favorable political climate following Trump&#8217;s victory in early November.
"Now that those winds have changed, and it&#8217;s clear Trump won in early November, the decisions you make in January are more reflective of the new conditions on the field coming into the inauguration."
Palihapitiya&#8217;s comments highlight a perceived shift in strategy by Zuckerberg, who seems to be adapting to the evolving political environment.
On the other hand, he believes Musk's decisions are geared towards maximizing benefits for humanity as a whole, rather than the shareholders of his companies.
"I don't think any other CEO leads this way. I do think Mark's a good person… Elon is different, and it creates an expectation that maybe we'll get that from everybody else," Palihapitiya added.
Why It Matters: This commentary comes in the wake of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42962037/elon-musk-urges-mark-zuckerberg-to-release-facebook-files-calls-it-good-after-meta-adopts-xs-communi">recent developments</a>&nbsp;where Musk urged Zuckerberg to release Meta&#8217;s content moderation communications with government officials.
This call for transparency followed Meta&#8217;s adoption of a Community Notes-like feature, which Musk supported.
The feature, however, will not <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43047212/metas-community-notes-to-exempt-paid-ads-leaving-marketers-puzzled-about-organic-content-risks-report">apply to paid advertisements</a>, leaving marketers puzzled about organic content risks.
Additionally,&nbsp;Mark Zuckerberg&nbsp;recently praised former Meta COO&nbsp;Sheryl Sandberg&nbsp;amid criticism of Meta&#8217;s diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) program.
In a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43073009/mark-zuckerberg-lauds-sheryl-sandberg-amid-blame-for-metas-dei-program-she-did-amazing-work">post on Threads</a>, Zuckerberg commended Sandberg for her contributions, despite reports suggesting he blamed her for the DEI program&#8217;s shortcomings.
These actions and statements reflect the complex dynamics at play as tech leaders navigate the shifting political and social landscape.
The contrasting approaches of Musk and Zuckerberg underscore the varied motivations and strategies employed by influential figures in the tech industry.

Cathie Wood's Ark Invest Is Betting Big On This AI Darling And No It's Not Nvidia

Bitcoin&nbsp;(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) has surpassed the $100,000 mark, triggering a bullish signal for altcoins, according to a crypto analytics firm. The firm has observed a notable increase in whale transactions for several altcoin projects, including the stablecoin&nbsp;Dai&nbsp;(DAI), issued by&nbsp;Maker.
What Happened: Santiment highlights that the surge in DAI transactions suggests investors might soon use these stablecoins to acquire altcoins.
Increased activity in stablecoins often signals that substantial funds are being prepared for swaps into altcoins linked to those stablecoins&#8217; trading pairs.

The analytics platform provided a&nbsp;list of altcoins with a&nbsp;market cap of at least&nbsp;$500 million experiencing the most significant rise in whale transactions this week.
These include&nbsp;MakerDAO DAI&nbsp;on BNB with an 800% increase,&nbsp;DeXe Network&nbsp;(DEXE) at 250%, and&nbsp;LayerZero CORE&nbsp;on Optimism at 200%.
Santiment also cautions that high whale activity in altcoins could lead to market volatility, as key stakeholders often make moves around profit-taking or buying dips.
Additionally,&nbsp;XRP&nbsp;has seen a surge in network activity, reaching a seven-year high of $3.39, with 2,365 transactions over $100,000 occurring in an eight-hour span.

He identified a critical support level for Bitcoin, which has now been surpassed, indicating a shift towards an altcoin season.

This prediction aligns with the current market dynamics, where altcoins are gaining traction as Bitcoin&#8217;s dominance shifts.

Altcoins Flash Bullish Signal Amid Bitcoin's Surge, Says Research Firm

Michaël van de Poppe, a highly followed crypto trader, anticipates a significant bullish surge for Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) in the near future, as the apex cryptocurrency crossed the $100,000 mark once again ahead of President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration.
What Happened: Van de Poppe predicted a forthcoming bullish move for Bitcoin. However, he suggests that altcoins, particularly those in the Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) ecosystem, will likely outperform Bitcoin.
"Very likely we&#8217;ll see a new impulse on #Bitcoin in the coming period," he said.
Factors such as lower yields, a weaker dollar, and progressive crypto regulation are propelling the market momentum, according to van de Poppe. He also notes that&nbsp;the current crypto cycle is&nbsp;more &#8220;complex&#8221; than the previous one, a trend that has been ongoing since the last cycle.

Van de Poppe plans to increase his exposure to altcoins, expecting a breakout. He stated, &#8220;At this point: I'd like&nbsp;to be maximally exposed to&nbsp;risk as we're literally on&nbsp;the start of that upwards&nbsp;move for altcoins."

Key figures and investors in the crypto space have expressed relief at the anticipated policy change, buoyed by appointments of crypto-friendly individuals to prominent positions, including David Sacks as AI and crypto czar, and Paul Atkins as the nominee for SEC Chair.
These moves, coupled with expectations of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43035888/donald-trump-reportedly-open-to-us-crypto-reserve-as-bitcoin-reserve-chatter-gathers-steam">executive orders designed to establish a Bitcoin reserve</a>, signal a new era for the industry in the U.S.
Furthermore, leading coins remained steady on Thursday amid reports that President-elect Donald Trump may announce several pro-cryptocurrency measures after being sworn in. Bitcoin wiggled in the $100,000 region, a day after reclaiming the psychologically important level on softer inflation data.
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading at $102,403, gaining 0.6% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

Bitcoin Set For Major Bullish Surge, Says Popular Crypto Analyst As BTC Crosses $100,000 Ahead Of Trump Inauguration

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
Investing in stocks to buy that already surged over 100% in 2024 presents a complex challenge. On one hand, there&rsquo;s a natural reluctance to go against strong market momentum&mdash;a strategy that has often backfired for those attempting to predict a downturn, as seen with high-flyers like Tesla (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/tsla-stock-quote/">TSLA</a>) in the past and even former (or current?) meme stock giant Gamestop (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/gme-stock-quote/">GME</a>). On the other hand, trying to capitalize on declining stocks and hoping for a rebound can be equally risky, as many investors have learned the hard way (just look to WeWork or Lordstown Motors for recent example).



However, these three stocks that have risen over 100% this year defy typical market skepticism. They are driven by robust bullish tailwinds and possess distinct attributes that shield them from broader market downturns. This suggests that despite their significant gains already, there may still be potential to benefit from their continued upward trajectory. Investing now could still offer a worthwhile opportunity to participate in their ongoing success despite their dramatic increases thus far.



<h2>AST SpaceMobile (ASTS)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/asts1600-300x169.png" alt="Mobile global internet communications. World wide web on phone via wireless satellite network technology. Smartphone digital connection at clouds services of all earth. Holographic abstract interface. ASTS stock"><div>Source: Andrey Suslov / Shutterstock.com</div></div>AST SpaceMobile (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/asts-stock-quote/">ASTS</a>) may be this year&rsquo;s big winner among surging stocks to buy. The space-based telecom stock, which aims to provide global data coverage to standard cell phones, popped more than 300% in the last month alone for a 104% gain year-to-date.



The stock&rsquo;s strong performance comes on the heels of two massive contracts with legacy telecom providers, AT&amp;T (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/t-stock-quote/">T</a>) and Verizon (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/vz-stock-quote/">VZ</a>), to bring cell service to their respective clients across rural, remote, and otherwise unaddressed global market segments. The Verizon deal is worth <a href="https://spacenews.com/verizon-plots-100-million-direct-to-smartphone-satellite-investment/">$100 million</a>. In comparison, AT&amp;T&rsquo;s specific terms aren&rsquo;t disclosed &mdash; though it augments the telecom stock&rsquo;s January strategic investment worth <a href="https://spacenews.com/google-and-att-join-155-million-ast-spacemobile-investment/">$20 million</a> and a six-year history of working together to test and prototype the tech.



AST SpaceMobile also made major moves toward generating revenue after <a href="https://spacenews.com/google-and-att-join-155-million-ast-spacemobile-investment/">posting $500,000</a> in net sales for last March&rsquo;s quarter from government contracts. While certainly not spectacular, it marks an important pivot point toward profitability, and government contracting with the company is an important step toward wide revenue diversification.



<h2>Root (ROOT)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/root-stock-man-holding-car-insurance-300x169.jpg" alt="ROOT Stock - Man holding car insurance"><div>Source: Jirsak / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Root (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/root-stock-quote/">ROOT</a>) has not only surpassed the 100% gain benchmark but more than tripled in 2024. The digital insurance provider, which targets auto, renters, and homeowners markets, is thriving due to its innovative use of AI in assessing client risk and optimizing premium pricing based on real-time driving data. This approach has significantly enhanced its ability to manage risks and reduce losses.



Root&rsquo;s bull run started following its <a href="https://ir.joinroot.com/static-files/801f4164-6734-46f3-afb3-b8dca108231e">end-of-year report</a>, in which Root achieved a 31% increase in gross written premiums, reaching $783 million, though its gross earned premiums saw a slight decline of 1% to $636 million. More impressively, the company managed to cut its net losses by half to $147 million, marking its most successful year to date. This turnaround caught the attention of analysts, leading Jefferies to <a href="https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/up-675-ytd-whats-behind-the-breakout-in-root-stock">quadruple its price target</a> and commend Root for charting a course toward profitable growth and scalability.



The market has responded enthusiastically to Root&rsquo;s advancements, propelling the stock up by 300% since the start of the year and an astonishing 661% over the past twelve months. While Root is still on its journey toward full profitability, its momentum is undeniable, making it a standout performer in the digital insurance sector and a contender for top stocks to buy today.



<h2>MediaCo (MDIA)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/bank-lending-capital-1600-300x169.jpg" alt="hands at desk near laptop computer, with one hand holding a pile of hundred dollar bills. Bank stocks. stocks to buy"><div>Source: shutterstock.com/CC7</div></div>MediaCo (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/mdia-stock-quote/">MDIA</a>), primarily known for its terrestrial radio and broadcasting operations, has defied expectations among stocks to buy with a staggering 300% surge since the beginning of the year. This dramatic increase largely stemmed from an influential move by hedge fund Standard General, which acquired a <a href="https://investorplace.com/2024/04/why-is-mediaco-mdia-stock-up-74-today/">commanding 95% stake</a> in MediaCo. This significant acquisition verges on a complete takeover and signals a strong vote of confidence from hedge fund CEO Soohyung Kim, suggesting potential activist strategies to boost the stock&rsquo;s value.



This active involvement is already showing results. MediaCo recently announced its acquisition of Estrella Media, a strategic move that expands its reach into the Spanish-language demographic, a market with considerable growth potential. The appointment of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacqueline_Hern%C3%A1ndez">interim CEO</a> Jacqueline Hernandez, a former executive at Telemundo and current board member of both Estrella and Victoria&rsquo;s Secret (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/vsco-stock-quote/">VSCO</a>), further underscores MediaCo&rsquo;s commitment to this new audience. Hernandez&rsquo;s expertise in Spanish-language media could be pivotal in steering the company&rsquo;s strategy and maximizing its newfound momentum. With such robust gains barely halfway through the year, MediaCo&rsquo;s journey in 2024 could just be getting started, making it among the year&rsquo;s top stocks to buy already.
