Trump’s inauguration could mark local top for crypto, research shows

December 3, 2024 Coin Telegraph

bitcoin correction

Historically, markets outperform after presidential elections and then stall once the President-elect takes office, data shows.

The cryptocurrency market’s bullish momentum may slow after United States President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration on Jan. 20, 2025, according to data on historical market performance during US election years.

In the US, stocks — and cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC) — perform well in the weeks after a presidential election and then cool off once the President-elect takes office, according to data from Bloomberg and researcher Macrobond Financial.

This is especially pronounced when the incumbent president is a Republican, according to data from TS Lombard, a research group. The Republican party is typically seen as more business-friendly, sparking greater post-election market euphoria.

October 19, 2024 Coin Telegraph

Coin Telegraph

Some top LSTs have previously seen price deviations of up to 77% from Ether’s price due to mass sell-offs paired with liquidations on leveraged lending protocols.

The $45 billion liquid staking sector is raising concerns among investors over the long-term price stability of cryptocurrencies tied to these protocols.

Liquid staking creates more capital efficiency for investors by offering an equivalent of the initial staked token that can be deployed in other decentralized finance (DeFi) applications.

However, liquid staking tokens (LSTs) could temporarily lose their price peg to Ether (ETH), according to Carlos Mercado, a data scientist at Flipside Crypto research firm.
