What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario


Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin rebounded above $67,000 following strong U.S. economic data for the second quarter. Positive sentiment was further fueled by VanEck's projection that BTC's price could reach $2.9 million by 2050. Market participants are now eyeing Trump's speech at the Bitcoin Conference in Nashville today. If Bitcoin can break through the $67,500 resistance, it might target the $68,500 level. Overall, the market sentiment remains positive.”


CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “The global financial markets experienced turbulence as Bitcoin and global stocks fell sharply. China's unexpected interest rate cut ignited fears of an economic slowdown, causing the yield curve on U.S. Treasuries to steepen, a clear signal of mounting concerns about the economic outlook. This selloff persisted despite the U.S. Federal Reserve pausing its rate hike cycle, indicating rising investor anxiety about the global economy's health.”


Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “VanEck predicts that Bitcoin could reach $2.9 million by 2050, thanks to its acceptance as a global medium of exchange and reserve asset. As traditional reserve currencies lose value and Bitcoin's scalability issues are addressed, it could facilitate 10% of international trade and 5% of domestic trade. Central banks could hold 2.5% of their assets in BTC, leading to a market cap of $61 trillion. Bitcoin's role in the global financial system could grow significantly depending on overcoming scalability issues and maintaining stability. Bitcoin is currently trading at $66,274, showing a 0.75% increase and a bullish trend.”


Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “The crypto market has shown resilience, thriving with the total market cap of $2.39 trillion, marking a 3.47% increase over the last day. The total trading volume has witnessed a significant surge to $83.72 billion, reflecting a 5.32% rise. Bitcoin’s dominance climbing to 55.42%, the momentum is clearly on the side of innovation and growth in the crypto ecosystem. This positive trend highlights the increasing confidence in digital assets and the bright future for the crypto ecosystem.” 


CoinDCX Research Team told ABP Live, “The crypto market continues to trade mixed, with Ethereum dropping sharply due to ETH ETF net outflows. Bitcoin has traded sideways, while other altcoins are down significantly. Solana and its ecosystem tokens remain strong. Volatility is expected to remain high with today's PCE Price Index data announcement. Technically, Bitcoin is outperforming Ethereum. BTC is slightly above $67,000, looking bullish, and could test the range high at $70-71k. On the other hand, ETH appears weaker, and the main focus will be on ETF flows.”
