What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin has begun a recovery, climbing back above the $60,000 mark. BTC successfully surpassed resistance levels at $59,500 and $60,000, and it’s now approaching the $61,500 resistance zone. Buyers are actively purchasing at support levels, taking advantage of the dip. However, if BTC struggles to break through the $61,500 mark, it may face another decline, with the next key support level at $59,650.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “As the overall markets awaits the inflation figures from the United States, BTC reached 61.5k USD levels while maintaining a 56% dominance on this 2.1 trillion industry. Stronger-than-expected inflation data could be bullish for Bitcoin. Conversely, if inflation figures come in lower than anticipated, the Federal Reserve may be less likely to lower interest rates in the near term, potentially leading to a bearish market reaction. In addition to this, US presidential candidate Donald Trump and Elon Musk organised a twitter space yesterday, where there was no mention of crypto or bitcoin from these leaders who are usually pro-crypto. This reaction was a bit unexpected by the market.”
Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, “Bitcoin and Ethereum have rallied 8% in the past week, reaching $61K and $2.7K respectively. Bitcoin is increasingly moving off centralized exchanges into cold wallets, a trend amplified by sustained institutional buying. This shift indicates a growing belief in Bitcoin's long-term value and could potentially fuel a substantial price increase. Trader interest in altcoins has spiked, driven by recent price surges. RUNE, FTM, and TIA have led the rally, each climbing over 8% in the past 24 hours.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Both Bitcoin and Ethereum posted gains on Tuesday as investors awaited key US economic data that could influence Federal Reserve policy. At 14:37 IST, Bitcoin was up 3% in the last 24 hours to trade near $61,000, while Ethereum, the second largest cryptocurrency by market cap, was up 2.5%. Key economic reports this week include the US Producer Price Index (PPI) for July, released later on Tuesday, and the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) for July, expected on Wednesday. CPI is expected to show a month-on-month inflation increase of 0.2%. In addition, retail sales data will be released on Thursday.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “Bitcoin's surge to $60,000 was driven by favourable political developments and increasing institutional interest. The approval of Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and a notable increase in stablecoin volumes drive this trend. The ongoing institutional adoption and regulatory clarity will likely bolster investor confidence and drive further growth. Bitcoin's dominance has climbed to 56.29%, reflecting a 0.35% increase from yesterday, showcasing its continued strength in the market. The global crypto market has surged to $2.14 trillion, marking a 2.89% increase in just 24 hours.”
CoinDCX Research Team told ABP Live, “The crypto market saw an uptick as the U.S. PPI data came in lower than expected, which is bullish for the market. The focus now shifts to the U.S. CPI data, set to be released today. Notably, during the last CPI data release, the market experienced a significant upside. Bitcoin has crossed $61,000, and Ethereum is above $2,700, both showing bullish technical signs. Altcoins also recovered as Bitcoin moved upward, indicating overall market strength.”
