Bitcoin and other major cryptocurrencies traded little changed on the final day before the U.S. presidential election. Bitcoin (BTC) edged back toward $69,000, around 0.8% higher in the last 24 hours. The broader digital asset market was more muted, rising less than 0.5%.
After being just a few dollars away from a new record last week, bitcoin pulled back to a low of $67,600 on Sunday, seemingly in tandem with a retreat in the more pro-crypto Donald Trump’s chances of election victory. With only hours remaining before the first polls open in some eastern states, traders are currently sitting on their hands until they have a clearer picture of where this one is headed.
