What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Edul Patel, CEO and co-founder, Mudrex, told ABP Live, “The crypto market is rebounding with Bitcoin at the $113,000 levels as market prices in the possibility of Quantitative Easing in the coming months. Powell’s comments boosted optimism, helping BTC maintain upward momentum despite ETF outflows and renewed US-China tensions. Investors must keep an eye on any news regarding the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve as US’s Bitcoin holdings grow to $36 billion following the largest forfeiture in Department of Justice history. For now, Bitcoin faces resistance at $116,000, while strong support at $110,100 provides a solid base for continued recovery.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “The crypto market saw a mild pullback as escalating U.S.–China tensions weighed on risk sentiment, with both nations introducing new port fees that heightened trade uncertainties. Bitcoin briefly tested the $110K level before a modest rebound, while Ethereum eased around 1%. Recent leverage unwinds have added to short-term volatility but may also be resetting market positioning for healthier accumulation. Key technical levels to watch include support at $110K–$112K and resistance near $116K. Cautious, low-leverage positioning remains prudent until clearer macro signals emerge.”
Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, “The recent market pullback highlights how fragile crypto sentiment remains, with over 210,000 traders liquidated within 24 hours. Such large-scale liquidations often create a ripple effect, intensifying short-term volatility across Bitcoin and major altcoins. This phase underscores the importance of prudent risk management and disciplined leverage use in an increasingly unpredictable market. At Pi42, we believe sustainable participation in crypto markets requires stronger structural safeguards, including robust risk frameworks and liquidity buffers. Traders and investors who adopt a long-term, strategy-driven approach rather than chasing short-term momentum are more likely to navigate these corrections successfully and benefit as the market stabilises.”
CoinDCX Research Team noted, “The investors appear to have become slightly pessimistic about Bitcoin, as the price once again marked an intraday low below crucial support at $110,000. Although the bulls have triggered a recovery, the bearish clouds continue to hover over the BTC price rally. No major change is seen with the altcoins, as the prices of ETH, BNB, XRP, SOL, DOGE & ADA remain consolidated within their respective predefined ranges. Aster leads the top gainers for the day with over 2.7% rise, followed by Monero with 2.49% and Bittensor & Zcash with over 1% each.”
Parth Srivastava, Head of Quant, 9Point Capital’s Research Team, said, “Bitcoin’s pullbacks are gifts wrapped in panic. Each dip bleeds out the leverage, resets the greed, and reloads the spring. The structural bid from ETFs, miners, and institutions hasn’t vanished—it’s just catching its breath. Smart money accumulates when noise drowns conviction. These aren’t corrections; they’re clearance sales on the future’s dominant asset.”
