BTC rises 1.3% after 00:00 UTC on the 4th... DeFi index up about 5%

Bitcoin rose 1.3% after 00:00 UTC on the fourth, while a DeFi index gained roughly 5%, according to the article. The move followed the U.S. midterm elections, after which BTC rebounded from its post-election low and DeFi tokens led gains. Official Trump (TRUMP) fell 7.1% over the period cited by CoinDesk, though the article notes the measurement window was not specified, making direct day-over-day comparisons difficult. Pre-election prediction markets had priced a 92% probability of Democrats winning both chambers. The divergence matters because it shows traders rotating toward DeFi assets and away from the politically branded TRUMP token after the vote; next, watch whether the DeFi index holds its gains and whether TRUMP stabilizes once a clearer reporting period is established.
