What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin tested the psychological mark of $60,000 over the weekend but could not sustain the rally. Currently trading at $58,300, the profit booking was expected ahead of the Fed’s rate cut this week. BTC is gaining momentum to another rally with developments like the launch of Trump’s World Liberty Financial crypto platform today and the FOMC meeting starting tomorrow. BTC has strong support at $57,000 levels and is facing resistance closer to the $59,000 mark. Ethereum also saw the same trend, testing the $2,400 mark and falling to $2,250, breaching key support levels.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “Unable to sustain above the 60k mark, BTC fell sharply with the asian open on Monday morning with the next big support lying around the 57.5k USD mark. The ETH/BTC pair on the other hand has reached June 2021 levels - with the world second largest crypto is likely to breach the 2L INR per ETH mark.”
Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, "Bitcoin's 3% drop to $58,271 comes amid investor uncertainty following the Trump assassination attempt, leading to over $116M in liquidations. All eyes now turn to the Fed’s interest rate decision, with markets split between a 25 and 50 bps rate cut."
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin (BTC) bounced back to $58,000, recovering from a dip below $56,000 as the global cryptocurrency market capitalization rose to $2.05 trillion. Despite the uncertainty surrounding the US election, experts predict that Bitcoin will reach $100,000 by 2025, thanks to fiscal policy and strong institutional interest. Bitcoin miners like Marathon Digital are holding on to their BTC and investing in efficient hardware, reflecting confidence in the future of Bitcoin. The cryptocurrency's hashrate remains near all-time highs. Technical analysis shows BTC trading at $57,888, with resistance at $58,494 and support at $57,227, suggesting a cautious bullish outlook.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “In the last 7 days, Bitcoin has surged by 6.14% to $58,512.42 and Solana by 1.54%, fueling excitement in the crypto market. Grayscale's recent launch of the XRP Trust marks a pivotal moment for Ripple and the cryptocurrency market. This new trust has already spurred XRP's price, climbing to nearly $0.568, reflecting a robust increase. The potential for an XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF) is generating significant excitement among investors, as Grayscale's history suggests that this trust could pave the way for future ETF approvals.”
