The crypto market stabilized after the U.S. House passed a funding bill, ending a partial government shutdown. Bitcoin briefly fell to $72,800, while ether dropped 7% in 24 hours. XRP and Solana also declined. Crypto analysis shows the market reacted sharply to the shutdown before easing. Institutional and retail traders are now watching for further policy signals.

The House of Representatives very narrowly passed a funding package on Tuesday with a 217-214 vote, meaning the government will reopen from its partial shutdown as soon as President Donald Trump signs the bills. Lawmakers will negotiate further funding for the Department of Homeland Security over the next week and a half, but other major departments will be funded.

The news — for the moment, at least — has halted a panic-stricken plunge in crypto prices on Tuesday, which saw bitcoin BTC$74,684.74 fall to as low as $72,800, its weakest level since before Trump's election victory in November 2024.

At $74,800, bitcoin is still down 4.5% over the past 24 hours. Ether ETH$2,175.39 at $2,181 is down 7% over that same time frame and 26% over the past week. Other majors like XRP XRP$1.6274 and solana SOL$104.79 are seeing similar declines.

U.S. stocks have bounced from their worst levels of the day as well, but remain sharply lower, with the Nasdaq now down 2% and S&P 500 1.3%.
