What Crypto Traders Are Saying About Current Market Scenario

Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, "Bitcoin traded at the $62,000 level over the weekend, hitting a one-month low due to the strong US dollar. If Bitcoin does not experience a rebound this week, there is a possibility of a breakout followed by a move towards the $60,000 level. The next support lies at $62,550 and then $61,600, while the resistance is at $63,300 and then $64,100. Investors and traders should closely monitor these key levels."

WazirX Vice President Rajagopal Menon offered his take, “The crypto market experienced notable volatility last week, influenced by macroeconomic factors and shifting investor sentiment. Following the Federal Reserve's announcement trimming interest-rate cut expectations, the biggest cryptos saw declines. Bitcoin dropped below $66,000, trading as low as $62,954, marking its lowest point in over a month. Similarly, Ether fell to $3,400 before rebounding to $3,500. Altcoins also felt the impact, with SOL and DOGE among the worst affected, trading 4.5% and 10% lower, respectively. Despite the initial downturn, the market showed resilience later in the week. Ether reclaimed the $3,500 mark, climbing over 4%, while DOGE and SHIB saw gains of over 3%. Bitcoin stabilised around $65,400.”
