US midterms election 2026 live: What they mean for crypto

Özet: Kripto piyasasında önemli gelişmeler yaşanıyor.

Within the next few hours, we will begin to learn whether President Donald Trump’s Republican Party has managed to retain control of the US Congress, determining his ability to advance his legislative agenda during the final two years of his term.

Americans headed to the polls Tuesday for the 2026 midterm elections, with all 435 seats in the US House of Representatives and 35 Senate seats up for grabs.

Republicans currently control both chambers of Congress, holding 53 Senate seats to 45 Democrats and two independents who caucus with them, along with a narrow advantage in the House.

Democrats need a net gain of four Senate seats and three House seats to take control of the respective chambers.

The results could influence the future of US cryptocurrency regulation, including the stalled CLARITY Act, and potentially intensify scrutiny of Trump’s crypto ventures if Democrats gain control of either chamber.

Last week, Reuters reported that Democratic lawmakers were preparing another round of investigations into potential conflicts of interest involving his family’s businesses.
