What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Over the past 24 hours, Bitcoin has been trading around the $64,000 mark, witnessing a surge in long liquidations. Despite attempts, it has struggled to break through the $67,000 barrier in recent days. The bearish sentiment has been fueled by various factors including Israeli airstrikes, a global credit agency’s cautionary note on China, and subdued corporate earnings in the Middle East. However, Bitcoin has managed to hold above the crucial $60,000 threshold, with buyers stepping in to defend the lower levels. Presently, the support for Bitcoin rests at $62,800 while resistance looms at $66,100.”
The CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “Bitcoin continues its downside movement for the second day straight as it went below the $64k mark briefly before retracing above the same. With BTC halving now 5 days old, the market leader has traded below $64k for the first time since the halving. Standard Chartered analysts are however claiming that the price action still remains bullish. They also believe that delays in Ethereum ETF are most likely to happen.”
Rajagopal Menon, Vice President, WazirX, said, “Bitcoin’s recent decline has breached its critical support level of $65,000, initiating a correction phase. Priced at $64,223, it represents a slight 0.12% decrease over the past day. Rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and the reattachment of the S&P 500 to Bitcoin’s price movements add complexity, reflecting broader market sentiment.Concerns persist about a deeper correction with the next support level projected at $61,000, exacerbated by high US interest rates affecting liquidity. However, institutional investors remain bullish, directing funds into BTC via ETFs.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin price nears $70,000 as institutional investment rises, suggesting market recovery.
