<h2 id="potential-for-post-election-profit-taking">Potential for Post-Election Profit-Taking</h2> 
<p>Edouard Hindi, Chief Investment Officer at Tyr Capital, highlights that the U.S. elections may bring significant swings to BTC prices. Hindi suggests that investors may look to take profits immediately following the election, potentially causing a brief dip in <strong>Bitcoin’s</strong> price. This profit-taking wave could lead to heightened volatility, with sharp moves as investors respond to election outcomes and economic policies.</p> 
<h2 id="fed-decision-key-catalyst-for-btc-and-altcoins-next-moves">FED Decision: Key Catalyst for BTC and Altcoins’ Next Moves</h2> 
<p>Despite this short-term pullback, Hindi remains optimistic about Bitcoin’s long-term outlook. The critical support level around $60,000 could provide a floor for buyers, reinforcing a positive sentiment if this level holds. Should the support prove resilient, Bitcoin may resume its upward momentum, with potential new highs anticipated in 2024.</p> 
<p>Ryan Lee, Chief Analyst at Bitget Research, points to both the elections and the Federal Reserve’s upcoming November 7 interest rate decision as critical factors for Bitcoin. Lee speculates that the Fed may opt for a 25 basis point cut to boost economic growth, which could lend a favorable backdrop to Bitcoin. The rate cut could stabilize the market, leading to a surge in investor confidence and fueling positive momentum in BTC.</p>

<h2 id="how-microsoft-s-upcoming-decision-could-shake-the-crypto-market">How Microsoft’s Upcoming Decision Could Shake the Crypto Market</h2> 
<p>Lee also draws attention to <a href="https://thebitjournal.com/is-microsoft-about-to-go-all-in-on-bitcoin-heres-what-to-know/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Microsoft’s</strong> </a>shareholder meeting in December, where a proposal to invest in Bitcoin will be on the agenda. If approved, this move could spark a notable rally across the crypto sector, potentially serving as a major catalyst for a <strong>Bitcoin</strong> price surge. Conversely, should Microsoft choose not to pursue Bitcoin investments, the market’s positive outlook could weaken, potentially stifling Bitcoin’s growth prospects. Investors are closely monitoring this corporate decision, as it could set the tone for broader institutional interest in crypto.</p> 
<h2 id="short-term-forecasts-for-bitcoin-and-ethereum">Short-Term Forecasts for Bitcoin and Ethereum</h2> 
<p>Lee forecasts that <strong>Bitcoin (BTC)</strong> will likely trade within the $66,000 to $75,000 range with a 70% confidence level over the coming week. As for Ethereum, he expects it to fluctuate between $2,350 and $3,200. As liquidity increases, altcoins may also see notable activity. Analysts at The Bit Journal urge investors to remain cautious amid these short-term fluctuations, as upcoming events could lead to rapid market shifts.</p>
