What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin is holding steady at the $56,000 level as the broader market shows signs of recovery, with many taking advantage of the dip to buy in. Monday experienced significant losses not only in the crypto space but also across global stock markets. Institutional investors offloaded their spot BTC exchange-traded fund (ETF) holdings amid high trading volumes. The U.S.-listed products recorded $168.4 million in net outflows, bringing net withdrawals to over $300 million this month. Presently, market participants are carefully assessing the situation and proceeding with caution. Ethereum, meanwhile, is expected to take a bit more time to see a sharp movement.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “Market volatility persists as Bitcoin (BTC) rebounded with a 5% gain today, following four consecutive days of significant losses. On-chain data indicates that crypto whales are buying the dip, although Bitcoin ETF data shows net outflows from ETF buyers. Solana (SOL) leads with an 8% increase in the past 24 hours, currently trading around the key psychological support level of $150. Solana-based memecoin MEW outperformed, leading the top 100 coins with a 17% gain.”
Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, “Bitcoin’s price is gradually rebounding, up 3% in the last 24 hours to $57K. However, low trading volume and a bearish market indicate cautious investor sentiment. While retail investors offloaded their BTC holdings during the recent crash, whales accumulated more. The RSI at 49 suggests selling pressure may soon increase.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Analysts are wary of buying Bitcoin despite its recent stabilization. After a significant crash, the price of Bitcoin rebounded to around $56,410.85, recovering from a dip below $50,000. Markus Thielen of 10X Research warns that current market conditions, including slow trading in August and September, make immediate investments risky. It advises prudent risk management and suggests that better opportunities may arise later. Analysts are also focusing on macroeconomic factors such as a potential rate cut by the Federal Reserve and changes in interest rate differentials against Japan. Despite some signs of stabilization, including lower leverage and open interest, further declines remain a concern.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “Bitcoin has shown a positive trend, currently priced at $57,000, reflecting a 2.85% increase over the day. The global cryptocurrency market has also risen to $2.01 trillion, a 2.53% increase. The optimism among investors is fueled by Senator Cynthia Lummis’s proposal for a US strategic Bitcoin reserve and former President Trump’s comment on Bitcoin’s potential as a reserve asset. If the current momentum continues, Bitcoin could reach new records high.”
