0428 GMT - Bitcoin continues to struggle to overcome key resistance levels, trading 0.6% lower at $74,466 as the tech rally fails to inspire cheer in crypto markets. Political uncertainty post-U.S. midterms and ETF outflows are keeping investors cautious and making a sustained recovery more difficult, says Antonio Di Giacomo at XS.com. The Democrats' win has fueled expectations for stricter oversight of digital assets, though any changes will depend on the legislative process and it remains important to distinguish market concerns from measures that have actually been approved, the analyst says. One market focus is the possibility of Senator Elizabeth Warren chairing the Senate Banking Committee, which some think could increase political pressure on the industry and shift regulatory priorities.
