What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin experienced strong buying pressure over the last day, briefly surpassing $71,000 before settling just above $70,200. Throughout March, Bitcoin has shown a pattern of reaching new highs followed by healthy corrections, although the reason for the recent rally is uncertain. The next resistance level for Bitcoin is at $73,882, with the previous support level far behind at $65,234. Ethereum, along with most other cryptocurrencies, followed Bitcoin’s lead and exceeded $3,600. The overall sentiment in the crypto market has shifted back to extreme greed.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “After days of downside market movement, BTC changed after a few days of downside and have turned bullish again with its price already crossing the $70k mark. With inflation levels reaching towards peak levels, retail users using Bitcoin as a way towards monetary debasement has been the number one reason why more and more people have started to invest in Bitcoin. Another major win for crypto came in the form of the London Stock Exchange approving the trading of a Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded note (ETN) which will be open to trading from 8th April subject to the approval of their financial authorities.”
CoinDCX Research Team told ABP Live, “In the last 24 hours, the crypto market showed resilience, with a notable uptick of almost 5%. Most coins, especially those in the RWA sector, demonstrated strength, outpacing the overall market. Technically, BTC appears to be resuming its uptrend after a brief pullback. It’s holding above $70,000 and aiming to surpass its recent all-time high around $73,880, which could trigger a significant upward movement. BTC dominance has been declining, providing an opportunity for altcoins to excel. ETH also continued its upward trend, but it still needs to overcome several resistance levels to reach a new all-time high, with the main hurdle at $4,065.”
