Hello, investors! I'm here to tell you about the most epic week in the world of cryptocurrencies. The U.S. federal government has suspended operations due to Congress's inability to approve a temporary budget before the start of the new fiscal year, which began on October 1, 2025. And you know what? It has completely crushed the crypto market! 💀
## WHAT HAPPENED? POLITICS VS MONEY 🏛️💸
The Senate rejected two budget proposals, put forth by both Democrats and Republicans. The Democrats' proposal included funding for the government and allocating about 1 trillion dollars for healthcare reform, while the Republicans' bill provided for maintaining current spending levels without changes.
Do you understand? Democrats want money for people's health. Republicans want to leave everything as it is. And no one can agree! 🤝❌
Democrats insisted on extending subsidies for health insurance and canceling cuts to the Medicaid program, while Republicans advocated for the passage of a 'clean' budget without additional changes.
## NINE REJECTIONS = NINE HITS TO CRYPTO 🔨🔨🔨
The American Senate has once again rejected the bill to continue funding the US government. The Republican initiative failed to secure the necessary 60 votes. This was the ninth failed attempt to resume the work of the US government.
NINE TIMES! Can you believe it? Every time the Senate says 'no', crypto traders lose a little more faith in the political system and buy bitcoins! 📈
Republican leader in the Senate John Thune stated that they still lack five Democrat votes to end the shutdown of the American government.
## REASON? HEALTHCARE VS MONEY 🏥💰
Here is the crux of the conflict: Democrats insist on extending subsidies for health insurance and canceling cuts to the Medicaid program. They also insist on increasing funding for the program, refusing to support the Republicans' bill.
That is, about 20 million Americans could lose their health insurance, and all because the Republicans don't want to spend money! 😱
## CRYPTO CRASH: HOW POLITICS KILLS THE MARKET 📉💀
And here's what happened next. On October 5, the head of the National Economic Council of the White House Kevin Hassett said that in such conditions, the country's GDP could start shrinking by $15 billion weekly.
FIFTEEN BILLION dollars a week! The US economy is losing money faster than crypto traders are losing their savings! 📊
## WHAT HAPPENED TO CRYPTO? 📉😭
This week the crypto market crashed by 22.5%! Capitalization lost over 1 trillion dollars in just a few hours!
- Bitcoin fell from $126,000 to $102,000
- Ethereum lost almost 30%
- All altcoins fell by 50-80%
- 5 million traders were liquidated
- 19 billion dollars in long positions vanished overnight!
Why? Because political uncertainty in the US creates panic in all markets, including crypto! 😱
## NOW: RECOVERY OR HOPE? 📈
Good news! The American Senate has once again rejected the bill, but that doesn't mean negotiations are over.
As of October 16, the situation is as follows:
- Bitcoin recovered to $110,600-$111,700
- Capitalization has returned to $2.2 trillion
- In 24 hours, the drop was only 1.87%
- Traders are starting to buy cheap Bitcoin
Institutional investors (smart money) are already buying bitcoins at the bottom! This means they believe in recovery! 💪
## TRUMP FIRES PEOPLE, AND WE BUY BITCOINS 😈
After the Trump administration began firing federal employees in several government agencies, Democrats and Republicans continued to exchange accusations.
People are losing jobs! The economy is falling! But what are they doing? Investing money in crypto! Because Bitcoin is not subject to political games! 🚀
## WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT? 🔮
Analysts say this could last a long time, as both parties are stubbornly sticking to their positions.
But you know what? JPMorgan predicts that Bitcoin will reach $165,000 by the end of 2025! This means that even despite the political crisis, crypto will continue to grow! 📈
## MY ADVICE TO ALL OF YOU 💭
1. **Don't panic!** Political shutdown is temporary. Crypto is forever! 💎
2. **Buy at the bottom!** When everyone is selling, it's the best time to buy! 📊
3. **Use DCA!** Invest a little bit every week, don't trade on margin! 📈
4. **Stay updated!** Politics in the US affects the whole world! 📰
5. **Hold spot, not margin!** Margin is a death trap on volatile days! ⚠️
## SUMMARY: POLITICS COLLAPSES, CRYPTO RECOVERS 🎯
This is the first case of a 'shutdown' since 2019, caused by the lack of agreement on funding government departments.
American politics has shown that it is unable to solve a simple task - to approve the budget! But crypto has shown that the market is recovering, smart money is buying at the bottom, and life goes on!
Nine rejections of bills, one political crisis, and crypto still recovered to $111K! This reminds us that the market is stronger than politics! 💪
**Hang in there, investors! To the moon! 🌙🚀**
**P.S.** When is the next shutdown? Because every time crypto rises! 😂 Maybe this is a 'cheat code' for Bitcoin? Political crisis = crypto moon? 🚀
