I can't see how this debate could influence Bitcoin in any way at all. I'm also prety much sure that neither Trump nor Hilary don't have any kind of opinion about Bitcoin at all and that presidential elections have no meaning for Bitcoin status.

I don't think that either no effect at all in bitcoin whether who is going to be the winner of that debate no effect for the economy of bitcoin. There is going to be only an effect if the winner of that presidential election of US will going to adopt the usage of bitcoin and for sure many are going to like that president and that is the start of cashless society.

I don’t think such debate can bring any impact (or say noticeable impact) on the price of bitcoin, yes if someone is highlighting bitcoin and crypto currency  technology in debate then there is possibility of some growth in user base but there won’t be any huge impact on the price as it is not directly proportional to the bitcoin unless someone is promising to promote or classify it illegal. No need to worry, nothing will happen.

Bitcoin transactions happen significantly more outside of the US so US affairs don't have much influence on supply an demand, just my take. Also, I can't think of anything that would be discussed in the debate that could spark any movement in Bitcoin.

I'd agree if USA didnt have its boot stuck in everything and every country by virtue of being the worlds reserve currency.     I dont get why people would ever say different, the influence of USA politics is gigantic and sure in theory it shouldnt matter.   I dont care about either candidate, mostly I think they just blow hot air and the words amount to little ultimately.

True leadership is rare however perceptions and markets will alter according to likely government policy over the next 8 years.   The reason is that so much of USA influence is based around debt and trade outside its borders but transacted in dollars such as oil most obviously but also other goods.     Words have influence in a world where most dollars rely on debt for their worth with political backing value not trade, that seems to me like an upside down triangle or jugglers scenario where financing is constantly trying to balance a situation to avoid loss.   I think most people here acknowledge losses are occuring in favour of the issuer of currency, dollars which is 1 countries government.

  In such a precarious and unbalanced situation, large changes could in theory happen.    So we arent looking at a really stable situation, bitcoin could be influenced because its still a function of the dollar.   People might say but China volume for bitcoin is massive or other arguements but of course China is looking at USA alot of the time for trade, money, policy, rates and a ton more.   I'd love if world trade were solely based on the sound principal of just actual goods exchanged but politics overshadows everything and it will alter bitcoin as part of that chain imo

Don't think that presidential debate could influence the Bitcoin, both positive or negative. USA elections just don't affect the Bitcoin in substantial way.and they can't cause any remarkable changes on Bitcoin market like they can influence the stock exchange. So, we don't have to worry about the election result, at least not in regard of Bitcoin.

I dont think it will raise alot since Bitcoin is used by the whole world not just the united states of America.

It may effect the orice of the dollar which will make a little difference imo

The whole world not just the United States, but the US is the most important market as far as BTC is concerned. If you look at the Bitcoin trade volumes (i.e the real volumes after excluding the rigged data from China and Hong Kong), you can see that US contributes much more than the European Union and Russia combined.

The presidential debate is entirely irrelevant for Bitcoin. It's even doubtful if there is a significant effect on stock markets, since there are only correlational data and financial journalists tend to construct cause-and-effect relationships out of any arbitrary combination of various political variables and stock market developments.

Moreover for Bitcoin an significant effect of the presidential debate can be ruled out for at least two reasons:

First, the Bitcoin market is very small compared to the stock market with very few actors present. These market actors are much less associated with the traditional financial establishment that may pay attention to political debates. Because Bitcoin is still not widely popular, it's also unlikely that new market participants will be entering the scene because of a thematically unrelated debate.

Second, Bitcoin is not dependent on different policies. Luckily, it's a decentralized currency, so there is not much any government can do to prevent it from being used.

ya.ya.yo!

yeah also i think those that are buying bitcoin, hate fiat so they do not care about presidential stuff, and everything sorrounding legal currency, infact in the past when there were some big crysis in cny or euro or other, there was not a significant boost in bitcoin

I dont think it will affect anything because the bitcoin is depends on market demand and supply its not the same with the stock market, and after that the majority of the bitcoin user is not from america, and to be honest i think the government debate is only going to make bitcoin reputation become worse, because when the user know bitcoin is going to be interfere by government they will leave bitcoin

I just finished reading an article about the trends of the stock market after the US presidential debate. According to the article stocks in the past have seen a jump after the debate.

Could we expect the same for BTC?

What would be the affect if the debate is viewed as negative?
What would be the affect if the debate is viewed as positive?


it is only US not the whole world.
the stock market you read is mainly inside the country so any effect on that market is understandable but not bitcoin since it has a global market.

although there is a chance that the new president changes some rules about bitcoin usage and take a different more swift approach that can affect bitcoin that way.

Christ on a cracker, I don't even want to think about those damn debates tomorrow.  If Trump gets elected, we are screwed, all of us.

Both major candidates are surrounded by scandal. The only honest option in the bunch is Gary Johnson. I'm glad he's getting more and more press as the election date arrives. Anyone voting Democrat or Republican is voting for their greed and corruption to continue.

In short, we've been getting screwed for a long time. If you want that to change, vote for the third party.

As far as how bitcoin will react?  I can't imagine it'll react at all, and I'm not sure if there's any truth to that statement about the stock market.  If you could predict something like that, it wouldn't happen.  Efficient Market Hypothesis and all.  I'll definitely be watching all of it, though.

Donald trump may win and he may try to release few more laws to make wide passage for bitcoin/blockchain related platforms as well as may weaken the restriction over bitcoin transaction. This can make good effect on price  and may be american will also follow the chinese trend of holding fiat in bitcoins.

Unless one of the presidential candidates actually mentions Bitcoin during the debate, it is not going to influence the exchange rates. However, stock market is going to get affected, as the wall street giants are running scared of Trump. If he performs well in the debate, then we can expect a small decline in the market indices on Tuesday.

If the markets as a whole move up, because people are feeling bullish, then some of this sentiment could rub off on Bitcoin as well.
Otherwise, I don't think there will be any effect.

Hillary would bring more "NWO" stability, so I don't see it having any impact on the bitcoin price.

Now Trump is a whole nother different beast. Since he is a billionaire, in theory he is his own boss and this means instability for the NWO. It can be either good or bad, you never know with Trump, he is unpredictable. So this, again in theory, means BTC will go up.

Of course, there are some people that say Trump is NWO too and it's another Soro's bitch, so who knows. Trump never mentioned the Soros leaks so this makes me think that he is scared of Soros.

I don't think it will have any effect on bitcoin. Non of the candidates have said anything about bitcoin yet. That debate will affect USD more likely. And USD may or may not affect Bitcoin. Just a little probably. It will affect EURO and GOLD a lot more than bitcoin i think.

Russia and EU secretly supports Trump to get elected. If Trump leaves the debate as the winner than EUR might rise a bit.

Any other vampires out there supports freak evil  lunatic Killary. (includes: Pharm. companies, Soros, Hollywood fags, Goldman/Lynch/Morgan and the other Banker Fags and many more.)

I think it will not influence strongly but we may see few quick reaction over bitcoin market when election result will be announced. If donald trump win this may effect price positively as he seem to be quite supportive towards bitcoin rather than clinton.
