A critical step has been taken toward ending the 40-day U.S. government shutdown. In a key Senate vote, lawmakers surpassed the required 60-vote threshold, accelerating the process to reopen the government. This development has strengthened expectations that market uncertainty will ease and Bitcoin responded sharply, surging above $106,000 in a strong rally.
Government Reopening: Key Vote Passed
After the longest government shutdown in U.S. history, lasting 40 days, the Senate’s preliminary vote received 60 “yes” votes, marking a major step toward reopening. Prior to the vote, eight Democratic senators reached a compromise with Republican leaders and agreed to support the measure. The proposal would temporarily fund parts of the government through January 30.
However, this does not yet mean the government is fully reopened. A final vote must still take place, followed by approval from the House of Representatives. Experts expect the process to move quickly given the Republican majority in the House. Once the bill reaches Donald Trump’s desk and is signed, the government will resume operations.
Bipartisan Compromise Between Democrats and Republicans
According to U.S. media, Democratic senators pushed to expand coverage under the “Obamacare” healthcare act as part of the negotiations — a policy the Trump administration had long opposed.
Under the Senate compromise, Democrats agreed to vote “yes” on reopening the government in exchange for revisiting healthcare support policies in the near future. This agreement removed one of the final obstacles to restoring funding for the affected federal agencies.
Bitcoin Reacts Positively
Following these political developments, Bitcoin surged sharply. After falling below $99,000 last week, BTC rebounded above $106,000 overnight as optimism over a resolution to the government crisis spread. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading around $106,200. Analysts note that reduced political uncertainty in the U.S. has encouraged investors to return to risk assets. The easing of the crisis temporarily weakened the U.S. dollar index while boosting buying demand across the crypto market.
Trump’s Economic Move Adds Momentum
Another catalyst behind Bitcoin’s rally was Donald Trump’s recent announcement that tariff revenues would be distributed directly to citizens. He stated that all Americans — except for high-income groups — would receive a $2,000 payment per person.
This promise raised expectations of increased liquidity in the markets, fueling bullish momentum not only for Bitcoin but also for altcoins.
Market Outlook
The latest steps toward ending the U.S. government crisis have boosted global risk appetite and sent positive recovery signals across the crypto market.
Experts emphasize that reopening the government will reduce financial uncertainty, potentially strengthening the medium-term bullish trend in Bitcoin and other digital assets.
