As of the writing of this article, Bitcoin (BTC) has fallen to $65,260, with <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/vitalik-buterin-highlights-the-importance-of-layer-2-technology-for-defi/" data-wpel-link="internal">altcoin</a> losses exceeding 5%. October is proving to be an unexpected period for <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/recent-events-impact-cryptocurrency-markets-and-feds-monetary-policy/" data-wpel-link="internal">cryptocurrency</a> traders. Sellers have reversed the Uptober narrative, potentially leading to double-digit losses in several altcoins as time progresses. 
<h2 style="text-align: justify" id="cryptocurrencies-decline">Cryptocurrencies Decline</h2> 
Several altcoins hit their lowest levels in the past week as Bitcoin dropped to $65,260 and currently trades at $65,510. The primary reason for these declines is attributable to sales in the U.S. stock market, which experienced nearly a 2% loss today, causing a ripple effect into the <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/market-analyst-gary-shilling-predicts-economic-turmoil-and-crypto-decline/" data-wpel-link="internal">cryptocurrency market</a>. 
<h2 style="text-align: justify" id="market-reactions-and-future-outlook">Market Reactions and Future Outlook</h2> 
Many market experts suggested that a closing above $67,000 could allow BTC to rebound. However, the loss of $66,000 triggered panic selling among altcoins just hours after these predictions. Furthermore, such declines have not historically led to positive openings after daily candle closures.

Another contributing factor to the decline is the selling pressure that began at the $69,500 level. Breaking the habits of investors who have profited from this strategy for over two quarters will not be easy. 
The upcoming U.S. elections are set for November 5. Although platforms like Polymarket show Trump leading, reputable polls, such as those from ABC News and Reuters, indicate a closer race at 48% to 46%. The image below illustrates the polling data to date, indicating Trump’s strengthening position.

Should Trump gain or equal footing in the polls in the coming days, we might observe independent movements in crypto that diverge positively from stock performance.
