Bitcoin swung sharply after Democrats swept the midterm elections, with BTC dropping to an on-chain support level before reclaiming $78,000. One analyst said the sell-off may have marked another local bottom near that key metric. The whipsaw underscores how macro-political outcomes are driving short-term volatility in crypto markets. Traders are now watching whether BTC can hold above $78K and confirm the support level as a durable floor.
