What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin has currently stabilized above the $56,500 mark recovering a bit. After reacting negatively to the weak employment data, the crypto traders are focusing on the upcoming FOMC meeting, anticipating a 0.25% to 0.5% rate cut which would be a big boost to BTC for another short term rally. At present, the key support remains at $55,000 mark and resistance close to $59,000. On the other hand, Ethereum is gaining momentum, currently trading at the $2,300 level up 7.8% in the last 3 days.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “Bitcoin (BTC) marked its third consecutive green day—the first time in 50 days—but faced rejection at a key resistance level of $58,000. With the possibility of a Fed rate cut just a week away, BTC needs to break through the critical psychological barrier of $60,000 to sustain its rally toward a new all-time high. In the latest surge, over $93 million worth of short positions were liquidated. Among the top 500 tokens, Rocket Pool's RPL stood out, posting a 22% gain, even as the Liquid Restaking Token (LRT) narrative appears to be losing momentum following the EigenLayer token launch. On the flip side, Helium’s HNT, a leading token in the Decentralized Physical Infrastructure (DePIN) space, saw a 7% drop, becoming one of the biggest losers as its recent growth rally paused.”
Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, "Bitcoin's recent recovery above $55,000 marks a significant turning point after a tumultuous week. Despite the volatility, the resurgence demonstrates the market's resilience and highlights the ongoing potential for future gains."
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “On September 9, Bitcoin (BTC) price briefly surpassed $57,500 as markets rebounded from an exaggerated response to August's payroll report. This recovery saw BTC rise approximately 8.3% from its week's low of $52,546. Analysts suggest that a key factor is Bitcoin's weekly close above $53,250, indicating potential for further gains. Despite September historically being tough for risk assets, there is optimism for the last quarter of 2024. Technical indicators, including a bullish RSI divergence, suggest a possible upward trend, potentially pushing BTC towards the $59,000 mark. However, the Bitcoin Risk Index remains high, signalling caution.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “In the last 24 hours, Bitcoin (BTC) has shown remarkable resilience, recovering from a recent dip to reach $56,716. This positive movement is driven by growing investor confidence in anticipated interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, which could enhance liquidity and stimulate demand for cryptocurrencies. Furthermore, as the U.S. election season heats up, the cryptocurrency sector is actively stepping into the political arena. The industry's dedication to establishing advantageous regulatory environments is demonstrated by the strategic investments made by Crypto Super PACs in significant Senate races. This proactive approach amplifies crypto's voice in politics and signals a growing recognition of the importance of innovation and fair regulation. With Bitcoin's price already showing resilience, the interplay of Fed decisions and political developments surrounding the 2024 election could create a favourable environment for digital assets in the future.”
