The U.S. government shutdown has been brought closer to an end as the Senate reached a bipartisan agreement, according to sources. The deal will likely be finalized through legislative processes and could potentially stabilize financial markets. This resolution would address funding for veterans’ programs, agriculture, and the legislative branch, with a stopgap measure to fund the government until January 30th. While no immediate impacts on the cryptocurrency market are apparent (at this time), the agreement may influence broader markets as it signals potential stability. The plan is to vote again on Sunday to advance the House-passed continuing resolution, which could serve as the vehicle for a larger agreement.
