Bitcoin's latest surge shows resilience, and that's due to the Trump administration's emphasis on innovation, Vladislav Ginzburg, founder and CEO of One Source, said in a Newsmax interview Tuesday.
Bitcoin remained strong despite recent economic turbulence and the government shutdown, he said.
"People see what's happening with such a focus on the administration promoting cryptocurrency and bitcoin and really seeing that transparency, trust, and technology are leading the way," Ginzburg told "National Report." "The United States is positioning itself to lead the way in this area."
Bitcoin's price rose more than 1% to around $115,000 as of yesterday, alongside gains in crypto-linked stocks such as Strive Treasury, which climbed 35%.
Analysts said the movement reflects investor optimism tied to expectations of a Federal Reserve rate cut and progress toward a U.S.-China trade agreement.
"Typically in bitcoin and cryptocurrencies' history, a major liquidation event, a government shutdown, any risk-off event would send prices spiraling for weeks and months," said Ginzburg.
"What we've seen in the last few weeks is comparatively relative strength," he added.
Ginzburg added that bitcoin is also "shrugging off the government shutdown" and "some of these macroeconomic headwinds and showing relative strength."
Looking ahead, Ginzburg said the trend is likely to continue into 2026, driven by the rise of digital asset treasury firms.
"That's a new narrative in cryptocurrency that really only started in 2025," he said.
"With regulation improving the environment for digital asset companies to go public, you're seeing strength that's showing both institutional and retail investors these are now publicly traded assets," Ginzburg noted. "It really pushes confidence forward."
He added that digital asset Treasuries are helping the economy adapt to risk assets while preparing for more favorable conditions.
"As we look forward to things like a possible trade deal, the government resuming, and eventually rate cuts, it creates more of a risk-on environment," Ginzburg said.
"The comfort that things like digital asset Treasuries have given investors," he concluded. "We really forecast that pushing forward."
