[Santiment sees AI regulation fears after U.S. midterms weighing on crypto]
Concerns that regulation of the AI industry could tighten after the U.S. midterm elections are affecting the crypto market as well as tech stocks, according to an analysis by Santiment.
Santiment said Bitcoin has shown a high correlation with tech stocks and remains sensitive to shifts in risk appetite. Investors are concerned that a Democratic victory in both chambers of Congress could slow AI industry expansion through tighter data center permitting, construction rules and changes to tax incentives. Santiment added selling pressure could ease if data center restrictions do not translate into actual policy, while downside pressure on AI infrastructure-related stocks and the crypto market could persist if the regulations are implemented.
