US Government Shutdown Ending as Senate Reaches Deal

The Senate votes 60-40 to advance a funding bill that would pave the way for ending the government shutdown. Democrats and Republicans reach a bipartisan agreement to advance a House-passed measure to end the government shutdown following 14 unsuccessful attempts.

The agreement was negotiated by eight Democratic Senators including Angus King, Jeanne Shaheen and Maggie Hassan. According to Fox News report, there were enough Democratic caucus members in favor of the deal.

Before the voting, US President Donald Trump said, “It looks like we’re getting close to the shutdown ending. You’ll know very soon.”

Spot Crypto ETF Floodgates Open as Government Shutdown Ends

The end of the prolonged US government shutdown will enable the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to decide on pending crypto ETF approvals. Bitcoin, ETH, XRP and the broader crypto market crashed as the SEC missed final deadlines on multiple key ETFs.

ETF expert Nate Geraci spotlights on opening of crypto ETF floodgates now with the government shutdown ending. He added that the first spot XRP ETF under the 1933 Act will launch this week. As CoinGape reported earlier, Canary Capital XRP ETF updated its filing to launch on November 13.

Other issuers, including Bitwise, 21Shares, and Franklin Templeton, also updated their S-1 filings to become automatically effective amid the US government shutdown.
