Bitcoin holds above $77K ahead of US midterm elections

Bitcoin clings to its 100-day moving average as midterms, jobs data and Apple and Palantir earnings converge on one week Bitcoin walked into one of the busiest weeks on the calendar with its support line intact. The asset held above its 100-day moving average, which sat at approximately $76,463 as of November 1, 2026. That matters because the week ahead is crowded. US midterm elections, Apple and Palantir earnings, and the October jobs report all land within days of each other. Bitcoin traded between $77,000 and $78,600 across November 1 and 2, 2026. It hovered near $78,000 for much of that stretch. That steadiness followed a slip below $80,000. Bitcoin didn’t collapse, but it didn’t bounce back above that round number either. The schedule driving the caution is unusually dense.
