Edul Patel, the CEO and Co-Founder of crypto exchange Mudrex, told ABP Live, “Most cryptocurrencies fell in the late afternoon on Tuesday. Bitcoin was seen changing hands at $19,000 after trading highs and lows. BTC is down by nearly 71 percent from its all-time high and 57 percent down from the beginning of the year. At the same time, Ethereum is also down by 70 percent on its year-to-date loss. Overall, the volatility in the crypto market continues as it is still in control of the bears.”
Commenting on the crypto market scenario on Tuesday, Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and Co-Founder of crypto exchange Unocoin told ABP Live, “Tuesday saw a good recovery in the crypto prices during its first half. Some of the alts had better recovery. However, by the evening, the prices again decreased to the previous day's levels. The panic in India regarding one of the exchanges shutting shop has continued and the heat is felt by other exchanges as well due to their customers withdrawing as many funds as possible from the platforms. Overall the day did not show much of a difference as long as prices are concerned globally.”
