Prigozhin has played his last card and it turned out to be a dud. Most likely, the following things are going to happen:
1. Prigozhin retires into a palace in Belarus (with or without windows or a tea room remains to be seen).
2. The Wagner group will fracture into groups of mercenaries taken over by the Russian forces (as ordered), groups that find "work in other places" (like Africa if they can get out) and groups that simply retire.
3. Putin is not worried anymore about Prigozhin. I highly doubt that the larger part of Russia even has an idea of what happened in the past 48 hours and why.
4. Shoigu will be using the remaining Wagners to attack whenever and wherever he thinks it is cool to do so. Assuming Shoigu isn't drinking tea with Putin at some incoming moment. Whatever the outcome of such an attack, Shoigu can get rid of possible mutineers, he doesn't care about those people, it's welcomed cannon fodder.
"Analysts" writing about "Putin is finished" simply don't grok the idea that Putin is very clever when it comes to stay in power.
