What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario

Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin surged back to the $69,000 mark in the last 24 hours, but it has since stabilised around $67,500. Investors and traders are now focusing on the impending US jobs report due for release today. Despite some selling pressure, Bitcoin has managed to hold above the $60,000 level, indicating ongoing investor confidence. A close above $69,000 today could pave the way for a test of $70,000 and beyond over the weekend, while support is seen around $65,500 if Bitcoin fails to maintain momentum.”

Parth Chaturvedi, Investments Lead, CoinSwitch Ventures, said, “BTC (+3.3%) saw an upward price movement last night to $69k before slightly correcting to $68k. The recovery attempt by BTC comes at the back of Hawkish commentary from the Feds around rate cuts. Basis technical analysis, if BTC fails to rise above the resistance point of $69.3k, there is a high probability of seeing another decline; current immediate support could be drawn at $67.2k. In parallel, Ripple, the creator of the XRP token, is planning to launch its own stablecoin pegged to the US dollar. The company plans to launch their stablecoin later in 2024. Additionally, Galaxy Digital has announced their Galaxy Ventures Fund I, LP, for which the company will be raising $100 million. The company’s venture capital team aims to invest this in early-stage crypto companies.”

Rajagopal Menon, Vice President, WazirX, said, “Bitcoin surged to $68,000 after announcements from the Federal Reserve, yet signals potential danger. Ethereum, however, maintains its strength and is trading around $3,280, showing resilience in its performance. Despite Bitcoin’s recent indicator signalling a possible downturn, analysts believe the price surge may not be over.”

Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “After days of choppy price action, Bitcoin finally breached the  $69,000 resistance and is now retesting this level. With just 2 weeks left for Bitcoin halving, the largest crypto can pick up momentum and potentially make a new ATH. Another potential scenario is a huge correction and the formation of a new local bottom before the reversal phase begins.”
