Trump and World Liberty Financial tokens lead losses among top 100 cryptos after Democratic midterm sweep

The split is the story: broad majors like Bitcoin and Ether rallied while two politically branded tokens sold off, suggesting the market read the Democratic sweep as a specific hit to Trump-linked assets rather than a risk-off event for crypto overall. That decoupling implies holders of these tokens are pricing political exposure, not just digital-asset beta — a distinction that matters for anyone treating them as proxies for the sector. Whether that political discount persists as the new Congress takes shape, and whether it spreads beyond these two names, is the open question.
