Overview

Bitcoin’s post-election rebound reversed as a Nasdaq-led selloff in technology and AI stocks spread into crypto. Reports place Bitcoin near $76,000 after a decline of roughly 5%–6%, while leveraged liquidations exceeded $1 billion. The move also prompted discussion of whether crypto held up relatively better than parts of the equity market.
