Bitcoin Falls Below $77,000 as Ether Drops 7%, Total Crypto Market Down 6.8%

The notable signal here is correlation rather than any single coin's move: bitcoin, ether and the broader market fell together, and the drop erased much of the post-election rebound within a day. That pattern points to a market still trading on macro sentiment and reflexive positioning rather than coin-specific fundamentals, which matters most for leveraged traders and anyone who treated the earlier rally as durable. Whether this is a one-day giveback or the start of a deeper unwind is the open question, and the breadth of the decline is the thing to watch.
