The Democrats just clinched a big win, and per MarketWatch the next big debate is how to fund Social Security. All the ideas on the table look like they'll raise taxes or cut benefits, which could tighten fiscal policy and keep the Fed cautious about cutting rates.
That backdrop shows up in crypto. $BTC is $75,985 with a 24h +0.11% move, while the Fear & Greed Index is 28 (fear). $ETH sits at $2,240, 24h -0.10% and $BNB at $699.22. If lawmakers lean toward higher taxes or slower spending, we could see tighter liquidity, a softer dollar and less risk appetite for assets like these.
Still, the market's already wobbling, so it's hard to say how deep the impact will be. What do you think the Social Security fight will do to crypto sentiment?
