Bitcoin (BTC), the world’s oldest and most valued cryptocurrency, is yet to find stability at the $64,500 range, but was comfortable within the $63,000 range early Thursday. It remains to be seen if the latest crypto-positive developments in the US, including Kamala Harris’s pledge to prioritise blockchain and other emerging technologies, help boost investors’ confidence. Other popular altcoins — including the likes of Ethereum (ETH), Dogecoin (DOGE), Solana (SOL), Ripple (XRP), and Litecoin (LTC) — saw minor losses across the board as the overall Market Fear & Greed Index stood at 48 (Neutral) out of 100, as per CoinMarketCap data. Sam Altman-led Worldcoin (WLD) token became the biggest gainer with a 24-hour jump of nearly 18 percent. Monero (XMR) became the top gainer, with a 24-hour loss of nearly 2 percent.

What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario


Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin has been testing the $64,500 level but is yet to break through despite encouraging developments in the market. Kamala Harris’s pledge to prioritise AI, blockchain, and emerging technologies, along with PayPal’s move to enable business accounts for crypto transactions, has strengthened the market sentiment but wasn’t enough for a breakout. Currently trading at $63,200, Bitcoin faces immediate resistance at $64,000, with strong support at $62,900.”


CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “Bitcoin (BTC) is down 2%, retreating after encountering stronger-than-expected resistance at the $65,000 level. This pullback can be linked to several factors, including weak macroeconomic data, concerns over a potential stock market correction, and uncertainty surrounding the upcoming U.S. presidential election's impact on the crypto market. Adding to the volatility is the upcoming monthly and quarterly options expiry on September 27, which has intensified price swings.”


Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, “Bitcoin is currently trading above $63K after trading at $64.5K yesterday. Three critical factors due to which Bitcoin struggle to hold $64.5K: fear of recession takes a toll on investor sentiments, US election uncertainty, and bad macroeconomic data. Concerns over housing market in the seven month consecutive decline and a slowing economy of China also impacted the market. Unsettled crypto regulation in the US with the presidential election bringing it into focus is the other critical factor. The Bitcoin bullish future remains questionable due market uncertainties. Meanwhile, interest rate cuts and economic weakness fuel Ethereum's price boost it might solidify the bulls' moment more in future. Optimism is that Institutional demand and historical October trends can support Bitcoin's bullish rally as Bitcoin saw ETF inflows for the fifth consecutive day, however market volatility in the future may persists." 


Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin is consolidating between $62,000 and $64,700, signaling indecision among traders. Dormant whale wallets are moving large amounts, with one 13-year-old wallet transferring 20 BTC ($1.27M) to Bitstamp. Meanwhile, whales accumulated $219M in BTC, showing confidence in the cryptocurrency. Bitcoin Spot ETFs recorded a $136.70M inflow, pushing total reserves to $51.04B. Despite consolidation, a breakout above $64,700 could trigger a rally to $70,000, but if it drops below $62,000, a decline to $57,610 is likely. Investors should monitor for potential FUD due to whale activity on exchanges.”


Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “In the last 24 hours, Bitcoin has maintained its impressive price above $63,000, currently at approximately $63,393, while holding a dominant market share of 56.27%. This stability coincides with an increasing number of people wanting to tokenize physical assets, which is changing the digital asset market. Following the Federal Reserve's recent interest rate cut, traders are still upbeat because they believe other central banks will follow suit. Going forward, it is expected that the cryptocurrency market will probably experience significant growth as institutional adoption rises and regulatory frameworks develop.”
