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

Crypto market capitalization briefly rose by about $100 billion after the U.S. midterm elections before surrendering the entire gain amid a global technology stock sell-off in the first week of November. Bitcoin and XRP prices slid as the rally reversed, though the article excerpt does not specify exact price levels or percentage moves for either token. The episode underscores how macro risk sentiment, particularly in tech equities, continues to drive digital-asset flows even when crypto-specific catalysts such as elections lift sentiment. Investors should watch whether bitcoin can hold recent support levels and whether the correlation with technology stocks persists into the coming sessions.
