What Crypto Exchanges Say About the Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live: โIn the last 24 hours, Bitcoin has risen above $71,000, indicating bullish sentiment ahead of the halving event. This bullish momentum hints at a possible revision of the all-time high of $73,777, with a subsequent resistance level of $84,000. Over the past year, Bitcoin is up an impressive 154%. By contrast, Ethereum has eclipsed Bitcoin's gains with an 8% one-day surge, fueled by increased on-chain activity, and a staggering 99% surge over the past year, with next anticipated resistance at $3,900. .
The CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted: โBitcoin continues its bullish trend with just 10 days left in the much-hyped Bitcoin halving estimated on 04/20/2024. If recent history is anything to go by, just before the Bitcoin ETF, we saw a similar price action where although the price surpassed the recent high, it became a news selling event as soon as the price was announced. ETF. Traders should be careful with both bullish and bearish scenarios as there is a good chance that some profits will also be recorded at the time of the halving.โ
Rajagopal Menon, Vice President at WazirX, said: โBitcoin is on an upward trajectory and its next resistance level is anticipated to be $72,000. The 100 hourly simple moving average demonstrates a strong bullish trend. Immediate resistance is seen near $72,000, followed by major barriers at $72,500 and $72,800. A decisive break above the $72,800 resistance level could initiate fresh bullish momentum in the price. Now that dollar liquidity is also limited, support may not fall below $71,000, which could lead to a new ATH. Analysts also warn against a possible โselling the newsโ event similar to how market participants reacted before the halving.โ
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said: โBitcoin rose to a high of $72,650 for the first time after a month. The largest cryptocurrency is advancing towards $73,000 with a dominance of 52.36%. Ethereum and other altcoins, particularly memecoins, enjoyed a steady rise in the market. The next major level to break will be around the previous all-time high of $74,000, pointing to a new all-time high near the halving.โ
The CoinDCX research team told ABP Live: โOver the past day, the cryptocurrency market remained bullish, with ETH and BTC gaining over 5%, and ETH outperforming BTC. Technically, BTC broke through the $72,000 mark and is now consolidating near the resistance level at $71,300. BTC needs to surpass its all-time high level for further bullish movement, with price action and indicators suggesting a bullish outlook. Meanwhile, ETH has shown stronger performance, breaking through a key level of $3,655 and currently trading slightly above it. A continuation from here could push ETH above the key resistance levels at $3,960 and $4,070. Additionally, the ETH/BTC pair saw a surge, helping altcoins gain 5% to 10%.โ
