What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “In the past 24 hours, Bitcoin’s value has risen by more than 5 percent, reaching approximately $37,500, despite no further developments from the US SEC regarding the Bitcoin Spot ETF applications. Since the beginning of the year, Bitcoin has experienced a remarkable surge of over 127 percent. Market sentiments presently lean towards bullish, as the Altcoins Solana and Avalanche recorded gains of 16 percent and 22 percent within the last 24 hours. Meanwhile, Ethereum maintains a trading value above the $2,000 mark.”
Shubham Hudda, Senior Manager, CoinSwitch Markets Desk, said, “BTC saw another 15-month high as Bitcoin’s price neared $38,000 levels just before retracing to $37,500. BTC dominance, however, did not rise much and stood at 52.2 percent, hinting that the entire crypto market has been witnessing growth, with global crypto M.Cap approaching the $1.5 trillion level. Altcoins have started to show momentum as popular AI token RNDR (+35.2 percent) led the altcoin rally and reached its 19-month high. SOL (+15.9 percent), too, continued to rise as it successfully rebounded from its newly found support at $55.”
Rajagopal Menon, Vice President, WazirX, said, “In a swift recovery, cryptos bounced back, reclaiming losses from the previous day. Bitcoin (BTC) surged, approaching a new 18-month high just below $38,000 after briefly dipping below $35,000. Ether (ETH) rose over 3 percent, reaching around $2,060 and surpassing the $2,000 mark. Among altcoins, Solana (SOL) maintains its leadership position, tripled in price over the past month. AVAX saw increased interest after JPMorgan and Apollo showcased a “proof of concept” for fund tokenization on its network.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin (BTC) is up 6 percent, trading around $37,700, after a massive liquidation of leveraged positions totalling nearly $100 million for the day. The market recovery, fueled by aggressive buying and macroeconomic factors, is gaining momentum as US inflation and retail data support the Federal Reserve’s easing cycle narrative. Bitcoin’s resilience amid falling stock prices and a weakening dollar, along with optimism about potential spot bitcoin ETF approvals, is boosting investor confidence. Geopolitical tensions contribute to Bitcoin being perceived as a safe asset. If BTC breaks the recent annual high of $38,000, a move towards $40,000 and a 2022 high of $48,000 is likely. Meanwhile, alternative high-risk, high-reward strategies, such as engaging in cryptocurrency pre-sales, offer potential profits with carefully selected projects.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “The crypto market cap surged by over 5 percent touching the $1.43 trillion mark with BTC and ETH leading the effort. Bitcoin jumped by over 5 percent as buyers are dominating the market currently. The latest US inflation data showed that inflation is cooling down, which may result in relaxed monetary policies by the Fed. The crypto market is poised for healthy growth with Bitcoin options touching the $17 billion mark, this growth will be supported by a wave of positive regulatory developments surrounding the financial markets.”
CoinDCX Research Team told ABP Live, “Over the past 24 hours, the crypto market staged a notable recovery, with Bitcoin (BTC) edging close to a new 18-month high, trading just below $37,500. This resurgence followed a dip below $35,000 the day before. The upcoming resistance levels to monitor are in the range of $39,500 to $40,000. Meanwhile, Ether (ETH) exhibited resilience, marking a gain of over 3 percent and approaching $2,060. This brought ETH back above the $2,000 threshold after briefly dipping to around $1,900. To sustain its upward momentum, ETH needs to overcome resistance at $2,135.”
