What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin is stabilising at $67,200 after dipping to a low of $65,200, while Ethereum dropped 2.5%, currently trading at $2,550. The sell-off was largely driven by a 400-point drop in the Dow Jones, mirroring weakness in the traditional markets. Adding to the pressure, Trump’s Polymarket odds slipped from 65% to 63%, creating a negative sentiment in the market. Bitcoin faces immediate resistance at $67,500, with support holding firm at $65,950.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “Yesterday, Bitcoin experienced a notable decline, dropping from around $66,000 to a low of $65,260. This downturn coincided with negative performance in the SPY and Nasdaq. However, Bitcoin quickly rebounded, climbing back up to $67,300, suggesting it may have found a local bottom. If it breaks yesterday's low, the next support level to watch is $64,000. Notably, the Bitcoin ETFs saw a net inflow of $198.5 Million, signalling institutional demand.”
Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, “Bitcoin's key support level at $66,600 needs to hold to continue bullish momentum a breakdown can revive the scenario seen in previous drops which could be a bearish trend at $55,000 for a confirmed bullish momentum, BTC must rise above $70,500. Ethereum too has issues as recent weakness has driven prices down 9.6% from October 20 to October 23, even as increasing transaction fees have dropped people's incentives, making it lag behind in comparison with the greater market. The volumes on Ethereum DEXs fell by 13% across the reporting period and also suffered a net lock drop indicating a decline in interest. Moreover, uncertainty about the Prague-Electra network upgrade hangs over the near-term horizon as there is fear it may not find a difficult solution to blocking on the network where Ether's prospects of long-term growth depend. Market sentiments are neutral. Today on Thursday, the total global market capitalization hit $2.31 trillion, marking a 0.15% decrease over the last day.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin is currently stabilizing around $67,000, with bullish sentiment potentially attracting institutional interest. The cryptocurrency is showing notable volatility, testing support levels and exhibiting a mixed trend. Recent inflows into Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs indicate growing confidence in the market. A recent breakout above the 50-day Exponential Moving Average at $67,250 could signal further upward momentum, with immediate resistance at $67,900. However, traders should remain cautious of bearish pressures, with key support levels at $65,230 and $63,760. Overall, the market's resilience suggests potential for continued interest and price movement in Bitcoin.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “In the past 24 hours, Bitcoin has seen a modest uptick, with Bitcoin (BTC) rising by 0.32% to reach $67,224. Notably, Solana (SOL) outperformed with a significant gain of 5.27%, showcasing resilience within the sector. Investors anticipate that the upcoming U.S. election may create further volatility, yet there is optimism for recovery in November. Investors are still hoping for a cryptocurrency recovery as sentiment stabilizes and possible regulatory clarity appears.”
