  "summary": "Cryptocurrencies experienced a significant decline to their lowest levels in over two months following the US midterms, as investors became increasingly concerned about potential regulatory changes under a Democratic-controlled Congress. Bitcoin, the leading cryptocurrency by market capitalization, plummeted by more than 2% to $73,708, while its counterpart Ether dropped about 5% to $2,223, both marking their lowest prices since August. The market turmoil was exacerbated by the $6 billion heist at Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, and the election of high-profile critics to key political positions in the recent US midterms.",
