i do not think so that bitcoin is such a week currency that it can be effect bye just a campaign again its bitcoin is a universal currency and hillary Clinton is not a universal leader, therefor no need to worry about her campaign against bitcoin,

I dont think bitcoin itself is at risk, its just fear that made it drop.
Just signals traders used to profit from it.

it's too late for the Clinton’s opinion of Bitcoin to make it do a policy U-turn.

Not too late to start WWIII though if she wins. In which case Bitcoin is dead, among other things.

The $10 drop yesterday is probably related to ECB telling EU regulators to tighten up control over cryptocurrency and congestion in the Bitcoin network with 20K transactions pending unconfirmed.

Its highly probable that a big chunk of the selling was caused due to the huge number of transactions in the pending unconfirmed list.

I doubt that Clinton and her campaign can affect on bitcoin somehow, same as Trump and his campaign. I don't know reasons why Clinton is against bitcoin. But I know that politic hasn't any effect on bitcoin. Bitcoin's price created only from it's popularity. I even didn't notice that the price gone down. This days it seems frozen on the level a bit higher than 600$. Maybe just bitcoin buying became lower for a moment and that provoked the price to go down.

i also doubt that in this case hilary or donald had anything to do with the price changes which are really small. but also you should know that bitcoin price sometimes changes in ways that you never expect and the market sometimes is affected by some news that seems ridiculous at first.

I agree with you. If the bitcoin market price changed because of hillary or trump it wouldn't be a few dollars.

I do not think so. Bitcoin price has some influence by politics and I am not saying it doesn't. But I don't think BTC price dropped because the Hillary Clinton campaign is against it. The correction in price can be just another market activity. Bitcoin gained some when Chinese Yuan depreciated, and now some traders must have booked profit which brought the price down.

I think Hillary's camp has nothing to do with the dropped of bitcoin.. if they already have an idea about bitcoin I think they will not be against it because there are a lot of opportunities to invest in bitcoin.

It's funny how this comes up as reason in your head. It's just the regular whale play that gets the price to go up and down a few bucks. Don't always look for reasons.

exactly this, especially the last part. i have given up on finding a reason for every single rise and fall as long as they are smaller than $20 change. that is just normal changes of bitcoin price.

besides bitcoin price is $631 right now and i don't know why OP is saying drop anyways.

No, there is some tension and uncertainty once again as interests are pushing for a hard fork to BU.

Yes but this is again just the small group making some noise.
I don't see this as a real threat.SegWit will come and be activated.I have no doubt about that.
Regarding Clinton I don' t think this news had any influence on the price as well. The same with the ECB news.
Mostly the market decided to go down a bit as no further pushing happend after that small bump.

Trump is committed to preserving Internet freedom for the American people and citizens all over the world. He believes the U.S. should not turn control of the Internet over to the United Nations and the international community which is what Obama wants to do. Hillary would be a continuation of Obama's presidency. How that would affect Bitcoin exactly, I'm not sure. But I doubt the Globalists would be for bitcoin as they can't control it, though if they could control the internets however...

Truth, bitcoin hasn't went anywhere in today's events. Just stable. Trump won and that's the end of it.

Or does anyone know other reasons why it dropped today?

I dont know whats the reason of bitcoins price decrease as of the moment. I have no idea regarding on hillary clinton campaign because as far as i know they would really not give such impact on bitcoins price for sure. Maybe traders and bitcoin holders already sold their bitcoin on $640 - for sure.

I think Trump should win this election however clinton is getting lots of support recently and if she will not support bitcoin when she get elected it is sure that lots of billionaire from US will force her to rethink about her steps as billionaire loves bitcoin and its easy for them to manipulate price and earn big profit constantly due to low marketcap bitcoin have.

Yeah I guarantee 99.99% of the people watching the debate tonight have never even heard of Bitcoin.
It took me like an hour to explain Bitcoin to my father and he still has no idea how it works other than its "internet money".

It's going to be another president or two before most of the people voting know about cryptocurrencies and the candidates stance on the issue makes a difference.
I guarantee that they got that Ven letter and Hilary said "what the fuck is Bitcoin?"

I want Trump to win, the entertainment coming from that would be epic. Who knows, maybe Melania could be the next president when all is in ashes - it would be poetic.

I think it would also push the btc price alot if he wants to operate businesses within the us people must feel like their freedom is stolen
(or something like tha lol)
