Morning Brief

Bitcoin, along with the rest of the digital currency market, continued to rally as Donald Trump is set to be sworn in as the 47th President of the U.S. in about two weeks. His pro-crypto Cabinet has led analysts to project Bitcoin will double its current value in 2025. However, how realistic are these expectations, given that digital tokens are no strangers to crashes and volatile movements? For some thoughts on this, we’ll be speaking with Andy Baehr, Managing Director and Head of Product at CoinDesk Indices.

Top Story

Khazanah Research Institute (KRI) released a paper last week that said the pre-existing income classes used by the government - B40/M40/T20 - no longer reflected economic realities in Malaysia.
