Bitcoin up 7% following Trump's promise to make U.S. the 'crypto capital', and Democrats' industry 'reset'

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : While Trump has historically been a deep skeptic of Bitcoin, his success at rebranding himself as a crypto candidate was reflected in Nashivlle: many conference attendees wore red "Make Bitcoin Great Again" hats, and orange "Make Money Great Again" hats.
53% : During his address, Trump pledged to create a Bitcoin "strategic reserve" if re-elected, meaning the U.S. government would hold onto all tokens it currently owns, in addition to buying 1 million Bitcoin over five years, worth about $70 billion at current market prices.
22% : In a 30-minute address to 20,000 or so crypto enthusiasts at the industry's largest U.S. conference, Trump also swore to end the hostile regulatory environment under President Joe Biden and Securities and Exchange Commission's Chairman Gary Gensler.
