Trump has already stated he has hundreds of executive orders ready to be executed and those could cover all sorts of things, from crude to Crypto. We have already seen how BTC has set a new record above 109k earlier and this update looks at what impact Trump might have on oil prices. We know two things. First Trump is going to Drill baby Drill and provide further support the fracking industry. We also know he is likely to push back further on oil imports.
