What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario

Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin slipped to the $65,000 range amid a strengthening US dollar, potentially influenced by the Swiss central bank’s decision to lower interest rates by 25 basis points. Nevertheless, Bitcoin remains steadfast above $60,000, marking a 26% increase over the past month and a remarkable 133% surge over the year. Expected support is positioned at $64,000, while resistance stands at $67,300. Meanwhile, Ethereum is trading at $3,400, with the potential for an upward movement if bulls can breach the $3,600 level. Additionally, OKX crypto exchange terminates services to Indian users, investors are suggested to move their funds to FIU compliant platforms to have a better legal recourse against any fraudulent activity.”

Parth Chaturvedi, Investments Lead, CoinSwitch Ventures, said, “Yesterday, Bitcoin (BTC) experienced a notable 5% drop, falling to a low of $64,600 from its starting point above $68,000. This decline in value was likely influenced by the resurgence of the U.S. dollar, triggered by the Swiss central bank’s unexpected decision to reduce interest rates by 25 basis points.”

Rajagopal Menon, Vice President, WazirX, said, “Bitcoin (BTC) faced a 5% decline, settling around $65,600 amidst a strengthening U.S. dollar. Altcoins showcased resilience, with Ripple’s XRP, Filecoin’s FIL, and Internet Computer’s ICP marking gains of 6%-7%. The dollar’s resurgence followed a surprising interest rate cut by the Swiss central bank, nullifying Bitcoin’s gains from yesterday’s dovish Fed remarks. For BTC, maintaining the $65,000 support is crucial. Further upside requires surpassing $69,000, marking 2021’s peak, to reignite bullish momentum.”

Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin climbed above $67,000, up 10% from earlier lows, as the Federal Reserve’s dovish stance boosted markets. Despite recent profit-taking, Bitcoin’s rebound signals continued bullish sentiment. With the expectation of three rate cuts and favourable macroeconomic conditions, Bitcoin may regain a record high of $73,000. Wednesday’s close will be decisive to confirm a breakout above the descending trend channel. While the recent decline reached 17.5%, which is typical of bull markets, shallow corrections are expected, especially after the launch of a spot bitcoin ETF. With the potential to retest record highs, Bitcoin remains on track to reach $100,000 this year or next.”

Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “Bitcoin is consolidating as Spot Bitcoin ETFs continue their trend of net outflows. Popular investor Grayscale’s gBTC has seen outflows of -$1.8 billion. We may see a break out of this range into the mid $70,000s in the next few days or weeks. The Bitcoin price must maintain the $61,000 support region in case of a dip.”
