What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin saw considerable sell pressure with the market continuing its test on support levels. Bitcoin price currently stands at $58,600, with the next resistance level at $62,263, while the closest support level awaits at $59,396. Ethereum's price action followed similar trends as well, with market sentiment remaining extremely fearful.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs have recently attracted substantial capital, with over $192 million pouring into these funds. BlackRock’s IBIT led the pack with $157.6 million in inflows, as reported by public source on Friday. This influx underscores the increasing confidence and interest from institutional investors in crypto, even amid the sector's volatility. Such a trend could be pivotal in driving further adoption and potentially stabilizing Bitcoin’s price in the long term.”
Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, “As predicted by Pi42, Bitcoin and Ethereum have dropped significantly since yesterday. BTC is trading below $59K, down 4%, while ETH has fallen 3% to near $2.5K. The broader market is also under pressure, with altcoins like Solana, TON, and Dogecoin losing over 7%. The crypto market has liquidated over $132 million. We advise caution and reduced leverage for traders as the market usually goes through such corrections before a bigger rally.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin's Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) falling below its 365-day moving average may indicate potential further declines or a bear market, as has been the case in past declines. Shortholders bore the brunt of the recent market crash, realising 97% of losses. At the same time, the inflow of stablecoins on exchanges increased by almost $2 billion, indicating that investors are buying the dip significantly. With unemployment rising and recent comments from Federal Reserve officials, a rate cut in September seems likely. Such a move could boost risk assets such as bitcoin following recent rate cuts by other major central banks. The coming week will be crucial as Bitcoin tries to recover from its significant decline. XDC network (XDC/INR) will be available for Indian traders at unocoin crypto exchange starting from today.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “Despite the overall market dip, Bitcoin’s dominance has remained relatively stable, decreasing by 0.02%. The global crypto market is worth $2.05 trillion and has decreased by 4.43% in the last 24 hours, while trading volume surged by 52.86% to $59.32 billion. The Dogs Token, a new cryptocurrency, has been launched and is gaining attention in the market. Launching new projects like Dogs Token highlights the ongoing innovation and growth in the cryptocurrency space. But we have to see the utilities it brings and how its adoption curves play out.”
CoinDCX Research Team told ABP Live, “Over the weekend, the crypto market experienced a decline, with Bitcoin dropping below $59,000 and Ethereum falling below $2,600. Bitcoin is currently in a five-month-long consolidation phase, suggesting that a significant breakout could be on the horizon. The key trendline resistance is between $66,000 and $67,000, BTC has to break above this level to push towards a range high at $71000-72000.”
