What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario

Edul Patel, Co-founder and CEO, Mudrex, told ABP Live, "Bitcoin remained stable above the $26,400 level over the weekend, following a volatile week. The failure of bears to keep BTC below $25,000 likely attracted bullish investors aiming to initiate a recovery. Nevertheless, the overall trend still favours the bears. BTC's support is currently at $26,386, with resistance at $26,633. Similarly, Ethereum mirrored Bitcoin's performance and is currently trading above the $1,720 threshold."

Parth Chaturvedi, Investments Lead, CoinSwitch Ventures, said, “Crypto markets traded in a tight range over the weekend, and in the last 24 hours. Global crypto market capitalisation is currently $1.11 trillion, down 0.1 percent. The crypto fear and index continued to stand below 50 for the last 10 days; currently at 47, down 2 points from yesterday. The fact that market capitalisation and BTC prices continue to remain above $1.1 trillion and $25,000, respectively, hints towards slight resilience building amongst investors after last week.”

Rajagopal Menon, Vice President, WazirX, offered his take, "APAC is enticing digital asset businesses, with Hong Kong having released its latest set of regulations. The unchanged price hike by the US Fed could see Bitcoin’s price go further down."

Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Today's Bitcoin price is $26,429.20 with a 24-hour trading volume of $9.67 billion. BTC is -0.15 percent in the last 24 hours. It is currently -1.56 percent away from its 7-day high of $26,848.12 and 6.14 percent away from its 7-day low of $24,900.76. Ethereum price today is $1,727.31 with a 24-hour trading volume of $3.88 billion. ETH is +0.09 percent in the last 24 hours. It is currently -1.91 percent away from its 7-day high of $1,760.91 and 6.06 percent away from its 7-day low of $1,628.66. The price of BNB today is $243.69 with a 24-hour trading volume of $374.73 million. BNB is -0.44 percent in the last 24 hours. It is currently -3.43 percent away from its 7-day high of $252.34 and 9.83% away from its 7-day low of $221.87.”

Shivam Thakral, CEO, BuyUcoin, said, "The crypto market remained flat during the last 24 hours as the rate hike pause by the US Fed failed to cheer the market. The interest rates are already high due to the continuous hike for almost a year and the market is expecting a rate cut which will spark economic activity and boost liquidity in the market. Over the last 24 hours, the crypto market volume reached $20.73 billion, marking a 12.36 percent decrease. Within this landscape, the DeFi sector stands strong with a total volume of $1.4 billion, accounting for 6.74 percent of the market's 24-hour volume. Meanwhile, stablecoins reign supreme, commanding a volume of $19.16 billion, representing a staggering 92.45 percent of the overall market volume."
