Bitcoin falls below 77,000 during election week as $233 million in crypto donations pour in and markets await the vote count

The U.S. midterm elections are officially underway today. Democrats are temporarily leading in key districts, but the crypto world has already placed its bets—with political donations reaching $233 million this time, an amount equal to the total from the past nine years and larger than in any previous election. As Washington’s money signals whom it backs, Bitcoin has already fallen below 77,000 before the ballots are counted. Chip stocks are dragging, markets are betting on who will make it to the White House, and investors are already moving to safety ahead of the election.

Ethereum is currently at 2,258.43 and hasn’t fallen as sharply as Bitcoin; capital is changing positions. On the XRP front, Ripple and Water.org are expanding stablecoin-based aid payments to speed up cross-border donations. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP are each charting their own course, but all revolve around the same question: Will the election results change crypto regulation? Who will move ahead smoothly, and who will be left behind?

I said before that money wouldn’t sit still during election week. Now Bitcoin is at the 77,000 mark, and the key question is whether it can hold tonight. If it breaks below, watch 76,000; if it holds, a rebound is possible, with 78,000 as the next stop. Those who sit this move out may have to wait for the next round—the market won’t wait for the hesitant.
