The <strong>43-day U.S. government shutdown<\/strong>, formally ended Wednesday, has muddied the data outlook: officials signaled <strong>October jobs and inflation reports may not be released<\/strong>, leaving the Fed short of evidence to justify fresh easing. That uncertainty has <strong>supported the dollar and real yields<\/strong>, pressuring speculative assets including crypto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Institutional demand cools<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Flows remained a headwind. <strong>U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs<\/strong> recorded <strong>~$897 million<\/strong> of net outflows on Thursday and were poised for a <strong>third consecutive week of redemptions<\/strong>, reflecting diminished risk appetite among asset managers and corporate treasuries. With BTC stuck in a <strong>tight range through October\/early November<\/strong>, momentum signals have deteriorated, curbing dip-buying interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Altcoins underperform<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Selling broadened across majors: <strong>Ether (ETH) \u22129.3% to $3,161<\/strong>, <strong>BNB \u22125.4%<\/strong>, <strong>XRP \u22128%<\/strong>, while <strong>Solana<\/strong> and <strong>Cardano<\/strong> fell <strong>8.5%\u20139%<\/strong>. Meme tokens were also weaker, with <strong>Dogecoin<\/strong> and <strong>$TRUMP<\/strong> down <strong>&gt;7%<\/strong> apiece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Market view &amp; levels<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Macro grip:<\/strong> Without clear U.S. data, <strong>policy uncertainty<\/strong> likely keeps crypto <strong>sensitive to rates and dollar moves<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Flows:<\/strong> Sustained ETF outflows and muted treasury buying argue for <strong>choppy liquidity<\/strong> and fragile rebounds.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Key zones (spot BTC):<\/strong> Support <strong>$96.5k\u2013$95k<\/strong>; a break risks <strong>$92k\u2013$90k<\/strong>.
