What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin hovered above the $70,000 with inflows into Bitcoin spot ETFs. Over the past 30 days, it has consistently held its key support level of $60,000, a crucial benchmark for traders. Showing positive momentum, Bitcoin may continue to rise. The next resistance level is at $71,200, with support at $69,400. Investors and traders are also eagerly anticipating the release of US jobs data on Friday.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “With BTC soaring towards the all-time highs with the market sentiment being as bullish as it could have been with Ether ETF coming out soon, the Bitcoin ETF has now had 15 consecutive days of net inflows with Blackrock’s iBit now holding more than 20 billion dollars worth of assets under management for the first time, out of which around 2.4 billion dollars coming in the last month, making it the third largest inflow in the entire ETF market.”
Rajagopal Menon, Vice President, WazirX, said, “Bitcoin indicates a strong buy sentiment as it was able to cross its latest resistances and find new support levels. Bitcoin briefly hit $71,040 before pulling back, a key price level that traders are watching as it approaches its all-time high of $73,679. US spot Bitcoin ETFs too experienced their second-largest net inflow totaling $887 million. Fidelity Wise, BlackRock and ARK 21 shares led the pack. Besides these factors, the buzz around ETFs extending beyond USA to Hong Kong, Australia also generated an optimistic buzz in the market.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “During the US session, Bitcoin came close to $71,000, but failed to sustain it and closed at $70,250. The recent Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) showed a decline in jobs, indicating a cooling labor market, which may drive investors to Bitcoin. Bitcoin broke out of a symmetrical triangle pattern at $69,000, indicating a bullish trend. The pivot point is at $68,450, with immediate resistance at $71,200. The RSI at 66.95 indicates overbought conditions, indicating a potential near-term downside. Key levels to watch are the pivot point at $68,450 and resistance at $71,200.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “The Bitcoin price continued to head north as it breached the psychological barrier of $70,000 in early trade. Ethereum, which follows the BTC trail also witnessed a marginal jump in its value and surpassed the $3,800 mark. The spot ETFs have added $2.4 billion in assets over the past month, according to data from Bloomberg Intelligence. The strong demand from institutional investors is driving the Bitcoin prices currently and positive macroeconomic factors will help the crypto market to sustain the momentum in the coming weeks.”
CoinDCX Research Team told ABP Live, “BTC now needs to clear its ATH level at around $73,500 to break the range and form a new ATH. Funding rates are still neutral, which is positive. Technically, the price action looks bullish. The only concern is that on March 12, when ETF inflows peaked, BTC formed a local top. However, the chances of a local top forming now seem unlikely as other indicators are bullish.”
