Senators agreed to a deal late Sunday to reopen the government, leading to a price spike for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other top assets. With the White House giving an OK to the deal and the House reportedly looking to hold a vote Wednesday, the longest shutdown in U.S. history could soon be… well, history.

What would a reopening mean for Bitcoin and the broader crypto market following weeks of declines? Analysts told Decrypt to expect a boost in short-term confidence among crypto investors, restoring some of the risk appetite that’s been fading—and maybe even another all-time high record for Bitcoin by year’s end.
