Why did the relief rally quickly shift into a rotation?

The relief rally that began with the removal of political uncertainty has rapidly given way to a more complex equation. The market is no longer just saying "the election is over"; it is now signaling that, with the election behind us, the focus has shifted to corporate earnings and underlying fundamentals.

Following the midterm elections, the Democrats' victory in both chambers of Congress initially triggered a broad-based rally, which saw Bitcoin recover from the $76,000 range to above $80,000. However, this wave of optimism proved sho

I think it is time for a new PFP
Honestly I cannot decide yet
We minted @kalosfun Genesis but it is still too early to know what we will get from it
@Elyziumaa mint is coming. If I get a cool NFT there it could be a strong candidate (no moustache this time 😂)
@slymzcrew has a completely different style and is still under review
And then there is @hypawwX . That could be the one. My daughter absolutely loves it ❤️
What do you guys think? Which direction should I go?

Why did Bitcoin fall below 77,000, and why is 76,000 a critical level?

A Europol deputy spokesperson said that if a threat involves serious organized crime or terrorism, the agency is ready to provide support at the request of national authorities, including information sharing and identifying cross-border links.

The conditions for support are narrowly defined, and countries must request it first. When similar threats emerge simultaneously on routes across multiple countries, coordination delays may arise before conclusions are reached, leaving passengers and crew to bear the uncertainty first. This is not a criticism, but a practical limit of the mechanism’s de
