Crypto Market Shifts Amidst US Presidential Election: Altcoins vs Bitcoin

As the US presidential election nears its end, altcoins are attracting more attention from traders, who believe the market may be significantly affected by the election results, according to a Bloomberg News report. While Bitcoin (BTC) remains stable at around $70,000 – roughly 5% below its all-time high – Dogecoin (DOGE) and Solana (SOL) are experiencing increased volatility due to speculation about potential shifts in US crypto policy.

An 18% surge in Dogecoin’s price followed Elon Musk’s hint about a hypothetical “Department of Government Efficiency” (D.O.G.E.) if former President Donald Trump wins. The token has doubled in value since the start of the year. Some experts predict that a Vice President Kamala Harris win may create a more difficult environment for altcoins due to increased regulatory scrutiny, while others expect a market lift if Trump wins.
