What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin is currently consolidating around $65,000, with a battle between bears and bulls for supremacy in the market. Bulls must surpass the $71,770 resistance threshold to initiate a fresh uptrend. Despite the bearish sentiment surrounding Bitcoin, it has recorded gains of 135% over the year and 3% over the past month. Meanwhile, Ethereum is valued at $3,200, and to avoid a decline, bulls need to secure a close above $3,400, potentially paving the way towards the $3,600 level.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “For the first time in the history of crypto, April started on a red note after 7 straight green months, with BTC being around 10% down since March end. Even though this looks bearish in a short time frame, if we draw a trend line on BTC on the lows of 5th March and 20th March, BTC is sitting at a decent trend line support. With the halving event being just close to two weeks away, this keeps a high probability of a jump again from these levels. However given the astronomical growth of BTC in the last seven months, and continued outflows of GTBC etf, risk has to be managed properly.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “As Bitcoin’s halving event approaches, its price predictions are gaining importance, currently standing at $66,125, indicating future trends.

Upbit, a major South Korean exchange, saw trading volume fall to $3.8 billion from its peak in March, affected by market momentum and the “Kimchi Premium”. However, its expansion, including the acquisition of a Major Payment Institution license in Singapore, means continued growth. Bitcoin miners earned a record $2.01 billion in March, showcasing robust network activity and potential optimism for bitcoin’s future amid the upcoming halving event.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “Bitcoin experienced one more boring day by trading below $66,000. The largest cryptocurrency has reflected a slump in price momentum after experiencing negative net flows into the spot ETFs. The spot ETFs were the main reason for rallies during the first quarter of 2024. With just…
