What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin dropped to the $55,000 level amid growing selling pressure, mirroring declines in both the US and Asian equity markets. Investors are closely watching the upcoming US data later this week, which is expected to offer new insights into a potential interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve. BTC’s immediate support now lies around the $56,350 level. Any further losses could possibly push the price down to the $53,500 support level in the near term.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin is showing potential for a major price surge to $110,000 by Q4 2024, driven by bullish technical patterns such as a Cup and Handle and an inverse Head and Shoulders formation. Analysts like Titan of Crypto and Elija Boom foresee a breakout in the final quarter, supported by historical post-halving trends. However, some caution a possible correction to around $40,000 before this peak. Analysts like Magoo PhD predict a dip to this level, while others, like Moustache, suggest a more modest drop to around $57,000. Bitcoin's path remains uncertain, but the final quarter holds significant promise.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “Strong trading activity was indicated by the 16.46% increase in the total crypto market volume to $66.01 billion, despite the global crypto market cap declining by 4.18% over the previous day. Bearish sentiment in cryptocurrencies is impacted by data from the ISM Manufacturing PMI, which shows continuous economic contraction. The relationship between traditional and cryptocurrency markets is becoming more and more obvious as traders modify their expectations for Federal Reserve interest rate decisions.”
CoinDCX Research Team told ABP Live, “The crypto market faced significant losses as global markets experienced a sharp downturn, with BTC dropping below $56,000 and ETH falling under $2,400. Most altcoins also saw substantial liquidations. Currently, BTC appears to have bottomed out for the short term, having closed a CME gap, grabbed liquidity, and flushed open interest. For a more bullish confirmation, BTC needs to reclaim the $58,000 level. However, global markets and upcoming U.S. macro events will play a crucial role in determining the next move.”
