Trump Ends Record 35-Day US Shutdown with Three-Week Budget Deal
President Donald Trump signed a temporary budget bill on November 13, 2025, ending the record 35-day government shutdown. The new funding measure restores pay to roughly 800,000 federal employees and reopens national parks, museums, and key federal agencies. The bill secures operations through February 15 and provides time for Congress to negotiate a long-term spending package. The government shutdown, driven by disputes over $5.7 billion in border wall funding, halted critical services such as food stamps, housing assistance, and tax processing. With federal workers returning and services resuming, economic uncertainty eases. Lawmakers now face a three-week deadline to resolve differences on border security and fiscal policy or risk another shutdown.
Bullish
Ending the record 35-day government shutdown removes significant economic uncertainty and restores confidence in US fiscal operations. For crypto traders, reduced political risk often correlates with higher appetite for risk assets, including cryptocurrencies. Historically, resolutions to US fiscal standoffs—such as the 2013 shutdown—led to short-term market rallies as funding was restored and spending resumed. Although the deal is temporary, the immediate relief is likely to support a bullish sentiment in the crypto market, as traders reallocate capital back into digital assets with improved risk outlook.
