What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin’s recovery over the past 24 hours has brought it to the $43,000 level, signalling the potential for further upward movement if bulls can reach $44,700. A reversal by bulls might indicate a range-bound situation, and the current support is at $41,950. Ethereum is also in a recovery phase, with the $2,100 support potentially drawing in sellers. Investors are closely watching today’s US FOMC meeting.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “Post taking the trend line support around $38,500, Bitcoin has been in a constant uptrend for the past week now, gaining more than 12 percent in this period.

Bitcoin’s substantial gains, driven by Tether issuing $1BN in USDT, face uncertainty with the Fed’s announcement in line. A potential rate cut may favour bulls, while unchanged rates could signal bearish sentiment. Bitcoin’s Bollinger Bands hint at reduced volatility. Over the past month, Bitcoin’s correlation with the S&P 500 has decreased, indicating a negative correlation. An increasing correlation coefficient could ripple through the crypto industry should the stock market face a downturn in the aftermath of Chinese real estate firm Evergrande’s asset liquidation. Additionally, the negative sentiment from the stock market could also impact the crypto industry.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin climbed above $43,000 with bullish sentiment supported by easing grayscale selling pressure and…
