What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin consolidated following Jerome Powell's comments that future interest rate cuts may not be as steep as the recent 50-basis-point. Investors are closely watching macroeconomic indicators, like the ISM Manufacturing data, to gauge the market's direction. Currently, Bitcoin is struggling to break past its resistance at $64,800, with support at $62,700.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “Bitcoin kicked off the week with a sharp drop to $63,000, despite U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s announcement of upcoming rate cuts. Interestingly, Powell’s comments—delivered at the National Association for Business Economics in Nashville—didn’t shake the market much. He shared that while the Fed plans to cut rates further, they’ll be smaller than the recent 50-basis-point slash. If the economy behaves as expected, two more rate cuts are on the table for 2024, each by 0.25%.”
Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, “Crypto market is showing bearish trend with Bitcoin dipping to $63,500 and altcoins XRP, ADA, DOT, and LINK more than 3%. But this is for the short term. While it was a spectacular September, which also saw Bitcoin take off by 7%, its highest since 2013, traders are expecting even more uncertainty as the market is highly volatile until late October with elections in the United States. According to historical trends, it will be late October when Bitcoin will show bullish momentum with new highs."
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Most top 100 cryptocurrencies are down today, with Shiba Inu (SHIB) leading the decline at 4.1%, trading at $0.00001873. Dogecoin (DOGE) and Notcoin (NOT) follow with drops of 2.8% and 2.6%, respectively. Conversely, Conflux (CFX) rose 11%, trading at $0.1956, and XRP gained 3.2%, now at $0.64376. In the top 10, Dogecoin fell 2.8% to $0.12295, and Bitcoin (BTC) decreased by 1.4% to $63,630. Ethereum (ETH) remains relatively unchanged at $2,623. Meanwhile, the U.S. saw significant inflows into Ethereum ETFs, totaling $84.5 million for the week, marking a positive shift in sentiment.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “The price of Bitcoin has slightly decreased over the past day, falling by about 3% to about $63,500. This decline comes after a robust September in which Bitcoin increased by more than 7%, indicating a bullish mood in the market. With a noteworthy 32.58% increase, the total volume of the cryptocurrency market shot up to $80 billion, indicating increased trading activity. Profit-taking and uncertainty surrounding comments made by the Federal Reserve on interest rates are attributed to the recent sell-off. Despite this decline, investors are still upbeat about Bitcoin's prospects and predict possible increases in October, which has historically been a prosperous month for cryptocurrencies.”
