Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

Democrats flipped 30 House seats in the U.S. midterms, securing a strong majority mandate, while bitcoin fell below $77,000. The token’s drop below the $77k level came alongside the projected election outcome, marking the key market reaction to the political shift. The result matters because it reshapes the U.S. legislative balance and may alter the outlook for crypto-related policy and regulation. Traders will watch whether bitcoin holds above or extends losses below $77,000 as the new Congress takes shape.
