What crypto exchanges are saying about the current market scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin has surged in the past 24 hours reacting to the news of Coinbase having 2 million BTC reserves as of the end of Q3. BTC is trading above the $16,600 level and is trying to retest the breached resistance as potential support. If BTC can hold the gained initiative, it might trade above $18,000 by the end of this week. If the price falls below the current level, it will provide a decent win for bears.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin said, “The BTC/USD pair started trading at $16,215 and has since touched a high of $16,648 and a low of $16,168. Bitcoin is currently gaining immediate support near the $16,300 level. Candles closing above this level suggests the possibility of a bullish reversal as well as FOMC Minutes Blast BTC Into Bullish Territory.”
weTrade founder Prashant Kumar offered his take on the market scenario as well, “The global crypto market continued to rally for the second day in a row with an approximately 2.5 percent increase over the past 24 hours. Bitcoin, covering its losses from last week, regained some ground and is trading at $16,700. However, Ethereum, Cardano, and Dogecoin continued to remain in the red over the past week despite some positive movement. The minutes of the US Federal Open Market Committee released on Wednesday showed that smaller interest rate increases can be expected. This will bring some positive movement in the cryptocurrency market.”
Shivam Thakral, the CEO of BuyUCoin, said, “The crypto market is in recovery mode as US central bank is expected to end its hawkish stance on monetary policy. Bitcoin was up by more than 2 percent while Ethereum was up by over 2.5 percent bringing much-needed cheer to the crypto community. The current turbulent times will weed out the weaker companies and create a robust ecosystem driven by strong protocols for investor protection. The overall crypto market will stabilise itself if macroeconomic factors become favourable.”
