What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin saw some profit-taking after hitting a high of $102,500. Despite the profit booking, the broader market activity remains strong, with altcoins like Chainlink, Avalanche, and Tron gaining momentum. The market sentiment strengthened with Blackrock recommending 2% exposure in Bitcoin. Additionally, Bitcoin ETFs Hit $50.5B in Cumulative Net inflow in the first year, showing the confidence of institutions in the asset class. Bitcoin now faces resistance at $103,200 with support at $98,600.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “With positive inflows in both BTC and ETH ETFs for more than ten days in a row, the bullish sentiment of the market seems to be upheld at a decent pace even as BTC is trading just below the psychological mark of 100k USD and ETH trading below the important figure of 4k USD. Yesterday, the major rally was seen in defi-based coins as restacking protocol Lido Finance’s LDO, Oracle protocol Chainlink’s LINK, and the world’s largest lending/borrowing protocol AAVE saw double-digit percentage growth in the last 24 hours, continuing the bullish trend.”
Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, “Bitcoin's recent surge past $100,000 signals a strong resurgence in market sentiment, with the cryptocurrency proving its resilience after a brief correction. While BTC continues to consolidate just under the $102,000 mark, its performance is a testament to its dominance and staying power. The altcoin market has also come alive, with several tokens posting impressive double-digit gains, signaling a healthy recovery and growing diversification within the ecosystem. The market capitalization nearing $4 trillion highlights the renewed optimism, but it remains crucial for investors to monitor these price fluctuations closely as we approach new highs.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin is trading at $100,898, maintaining its position above $100,000 despite a slight decline of 0.27%. Recent US November CPI data sparked a surge to $101,413.74, with the broader crypto market up 6%. Ethereum remains below $4,000, while Coinbase and MicroStrategy posted gains of 3% and 9%, respectively. The SEC's progress on the Bitwise Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF proposal and potential changes in CFTC leadership signal positive market sentiment. Bitcoin broke out of the symmetrical triangle with resistance at $101,930, $103,700 and $106,500, while key supports are at $99,750 and $98,850. The RSI stands at 59.20.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “Positive sentiment surged when President-elect Donald Trump stated, "We are going to do something great with crypto," while ringing the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange, signaling his commitment to digital assets. The cryptocurrency market has seen significant developments, particularly with Solana (SOL) emerging as the leading blockchain for new developers. According to the Electric Capital report, Solana experienced an impressive 83% annual growth, surpassing Ethereum (ETH) for the first time since 2016. This shift highlights Solana's growing appeal in the crypto space.”
