The post reports Bitcoin slipping below $98,000 as the broader crypto market falls amid the end of a 43‑day U.S. government shutdown and lingering inflation worries.

The author, Jona Jaupi, emphasizes the growing macro‑economic link to crypto and predicts Bitcoin will stay muted around the $100‑110 k range for the near term.
