Bitcoin Traders Brace for Potential U.S. Government Shutdown as Market Uncertainty Grows
Bitcoin traders are increasingly cautious ahead of a possible U.S. government shutdown expected to begin on January 31, with prediction markets suggesting up to an 80% probability. According to NS3.AI, a shutdown could delay the release of key economic data, intensifying market uncertainty and triggering potential ETF outflows that may pressure Bitcoin prices. Analysts warn that the impact could range from a modest 3% pullback to a sharp decline of up to 30%, potentially pushing Bitcoin toward the $60,000 level.

Bitcoin did not have a great week. Price slipped roughly 6% and is now trading around the $88,000 level, putting pressure back on short-term sentiment. After weeks of steady gains, the pullback has reopened the debate about whether this move is just a pause or the start of something deeper. We already covered several reasons behind the dip earlier this week, but new developments are adding context to the market’s unease. At the same time, something very different is happening beneath the surface. Bitcoin’s largest holders are quietly accumulating. And that contrast is starting to make bears uncomfortable. Why Bitcoin Pulled Back This Week Part of the pressure came from politics rather than charts. Odds of a U.S. government shutdown by month-end surged to 77% on Polymarket, jumping 67% in just 24 hours. Senate Democrats have vowed to block a funding bill, raising fears of another fiscal standoff in Washington. For crypto, this matters because it directly delays the CLARITY Act, a major market-structure bill meant to bring long-awaited regulatory clarity. That uncertainty has weighed on prices for weeks and continues to hang over the market. Another blow came from South Korea. Prosecutors revealed that roughly $47 million worth of seized Bitcoin went missing after a phishing attack during a routine inspection. The incident exposed serious weaknesses in how authorities secure digital assets, shaking confidence in institutional handling of crypto custody. These events did not crash the market, but they added to the fragile mood that already existed. What the Whales Are Doing Instead While headlines stay heavy, Bitcoin whales are acting in the opposite direction. Santiment data shows that wallets holding at least 1,000 BTC have collectively added around 104,340 BTC in recent weeks. That represents a 1.5% increase in their total holdings. At the same time, the number of daily transfers above $1 million has climbed back to two-month highs.$SOL
