HTX Research Sets Out Crypto Outlook Around 2026 U.S. Midterms

HTX's dedicated research arm, HTX Research, has released a new study titled Crypto Market Outlook Before and After the 2026 U.S. Midterm Elections.

The report argues that although the midterms could reshape policy expectations for the following two years, near-term crypto pricing continues to be shaped by inflation, financing costs, and capital flows. For the stretch just before and just after the vote, its base case is high volatility, repeated repricing, and divergent performance across assets, rather than a sustained rally built around one political narrative.

The study weighs how the vote could change the speed of crypto rulemaking, the posture of regulators, and digital-asset pricing. Its scope extends to the prevailing macro and funding backdrop, the policy picture under alternative congressional outcomes, how exposed the main crypto asset classes are to the election, scenario analysis for different conditions, and an indicator framework that tracks developments from the run-up to the vote through the first half of 2027.
