What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario

Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “In the last 24 hours, Bitcoin has witnessed price volatility, despite the positive inflation data reported in June's CPI. The cryptocurrency has encountered difficulties in surpassing the US$30,500 threshold. The volatility is due to the US government's movement of approximately $300 million worth of Silk Road-linked Bitcoin in three separate transactions, as indicated by on-chain data on Wednesday. Similar incidents in the past, including a billion-dollar Bitcoin transfer from the same wallet in March, have had significant repercussions on major cryptocurrencies, leading to substantial declines. Currently, Bitcoin faces resistance levels at $30,400 and $30,550. If it fails to overcome these resistance levels, it could potentially trigger further declines, bringing the price closer to its support level at $30,230.”

Shubham Hudda, Senior Manager, CoinSwitch Markets Desk, said, “Even bullish CPI data highlighting the lowest inflation in two years (3 percent, better than the 3.1 percent forecast) was not able to give the market any positive momentum. This could be indicative of indecisiveness among the investors. The possibility of BTC’s downside support getting tested is likely to increase as even the US equity index S&P 500 was up 0.75 percent in the wake of the positive CPI data.”

Rajagopal Menon, Vice President, WazirX, offered his take, “Bitcoin investors initially embraced news of an inflation slowdown, leading to BTC's rise to nearly $31,000. Yet, it fell below $30,500, down over 1 percent post-CPI release. June's consumer prices rose 3 percent YoY (compared to 4 percent in May) while core inflation moderated to 4.8 percent. This unexpected market response raises concerns regarding inflation's impact on Bitcoin. On WazirX, Helium (HNT) and WazirX Token (WRX) have been the top gainers in the last 24 hours.”

Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin is currently in an uptrend, hovering around $30,380 with resistance near $31,000 and strong resistance at $31,350. A successful break above $31,350 could push the price towards further targets around $32,500 or even higher to $34,150. On the downside, there is immediate support at $30,300 and potentially $29,650. A significant break below $29,650 could lead to a decline towards $28,650 or lower to $27,900. Monitoring the $31,000 level is crucial for potential buying opportunities. Despite recent lawsuits against major exchanges such as Binance and Coinbase, Bitcoin has shown resilience, currently up 18 percent from last month at $30,700, with a dominant market share of over 50 precent.”

Shivam Thakral, the CEO of BuyUCoin, said, “The bitcoin market has demonstrated its persistence by transacting $30.59 billion in total over the last day, a phenomenal increase of 14.21 percent. Decentralised finance (DeFi), which accounts for $2.1 billion, or 6.85 percent of the market's overall turnover, is also growing. As seen by its present price of $30,298, the leading cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, is also stable in the market.”

CoinDCX Research Team told ABP Live, “Bitcoin continues to hold above $30,000 reflecting a 1 percent increase in the last 24 hours, with the impending release of US CPI data for June. The market is cautiously monitoring its potential impact on Bitcoin's performance. The crypto market witnessed a positive trend, with crypto-linked investment products experiencing net inflows of $136 million in the last week. This marks the third consecutive week of inflows, effectively correcting the prior nine weeks of outflows.”
