The Trump 2020 futures contract on crypto derivatives exchange FTX crashed to USD 0.43, while the Biden 2020 contract jumped to USD 0.57 (09:31 UTC).
Also, looking at ‘YES Trump’ and ‘NO Trump’ tokens issued by Augur, we see that the YES one dropped, while the NO one advanced.
For now (09:34 UTC), Biden secured 238 electoral votes out of necessary 270, while Trump has 213, according to Bloomberg data. While Reuters and some other sources claim that Biden has 224 votes, Trump – 213. In either case, results are still coming in. Moreover, some of the valid ballots left to count are from mail-in and early votes cast ahead of time that are in hand but not yet counted.
Despite this, Republican Donald Trump said, “Frankly, we did win this election” over Democrat Joe Biden and said he would take the election to the Supreme Court.
