What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin hovered above the $71,000 level with increasing inflows in the Bitcoin spot ETfs and rising open interest in the futures market. The $72,000 level continues to be a significant resistance. On the other hand, Ethereum also saw a surge and is trading above the $3,800 level. A break above the $4,100 can suggest resumption of the uptrend.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “With BTC being less than 4% away from its all-time high, options traders anticipate an imminent rally to 80k USD by the end of this month. With around 1.5 billion dollars worth of shorts concentrated around the 72k USD mark, bitcoin bulls are waiting for a short squeeze.”
Rajagopal Menon, Vice President, WazirX, said, “Bitcoin surged past the $71,000 mark, indicating potential for further growth amidst robust trading volumes. This rally signifies renewed interest and optimism, supported by several key technical indicators. Additionally, a weaker dollar this week has provided a boost to crypto markets. The cryptocurrency has broken out of its recent $60,000 to $70,000 trading range, and is now just $3,000 shy of a new record high. Recent months saw Bitcoin’s price constrained by profit-taking, high interest rates, and tempered enthusiasm over Bitcoin ETFs. However, the prospect of lower interest rates this year appears to be reigniting interest in the cryptocurrency market.”
CoinDCX Research Team told ABP Live, “The crypto market saw a small uptick, with BTC crossing the $71,000 mark and ETH crossing $3,850. Altcoins traded mixed. Technically, BTC is currently at a resistance level, with the next resistance level at $73,500. ETH’s resistance level is at $3,945. The AI category saw a recovery as Nvidia stock jumped 5% in a day. Overall, the market outlook remains bullish.”
