What crypto exchanges are saying about the current market scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Crypto-related stocks like Coinbase and MicroStrategy experienced a double-digit increase in their stock price — 13 per cent and 11.6 per cent, respectively. This sudden rally can be attributed to the change in the momentum of cryptocurrencies. Over the past three weeks, both Bitcoin and Ethereum were rigorously testing their respective support levels ($19,000 and $1,300, respectively). Currently, BTC surged above $20,700, and ETH touched $15,500. Hence, crypto maximalists are optimistic that the crypto winter will end soon.”
Shivam Thakral, the CEO of BuyUCoin, said, “The crypto market cap crossed the crucial $1 trillion mark in a long time with crypto heavyweights like Bitcoin and Ether leading the effort. Bitcoin has surged by over 8.5 per cent in the past seven days and is currently trading at the $20,724 level while the second largest crypto Ether is exchanging hands at $1,550 which is a jump of over 20 per cent in the past seven days. The other coins like MATIC, DOT, and SOL witnessed a marginal increase in their prices with SHIB surging by over 15 per cent in the last. The financial markets around the globe are showing early signs of recovery with the pound gaining strength. The central banks around the world are also hinting towards ending the long spell of strict monetary policies which will boost liquidity in the global markets in the coming weeks.”
