The U.S. federal government shutdown entered its 37th day on November 6, 2025, extending its record as the longest in history amid political stalemates.

On November 6, 2025, the longest U.S. government shutdown entered its 37th day, surpassing the previous record set in 2018–2019. Led by President Donald Trump, the administration and congressional leaders struggle to find a budget resolution. Partisan gridlock intensifies, with key leaders like <a href="https://www.senate.gov" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Chuck Schumer and John Thune</a> issuing statements highlighting tensions.
Federal agencies experience delays in operations as reduced staffing limits their ability to enforce regulations. This slowdown affects the SEC and CFTC, stalling new rule proposals and enforcement actions significantly impacting the cryptocurrency market. "Due to the government shutdown, the SEC is operating with limited staff. Enforcement actions and new rule proposals may be delayed," as stated by the <a href="https://www.sec.gov" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">SEC</a>.
Reactions from key industry leaders are notable. Vitalik Buterin emphasizes the resilience of decentralized systems amid government dysfunction.
