What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Edul Patel, CEO and co-founder, Mudrex, told ABP Live, “Ethereum hit another all-time high of $4,953, building on Friday’s momentum as the Fed chair hinted at a rate cut in September. Over the past 48 hours, about 200,000 ETH have been withdrawn from exchanges, suggesting a potential supply squeeze in the near term. Alongside this, Corporate accumulation by Ethereum treasury companies has also contributed to the uptrend. BitMine Immersion accumulated about $45 million in ETH over the weekend, bringing its holdings to $7 billion. Currently trading at $4,760, ETH’s next leg of rally could breach the $5000 mark with strong support at $4,400.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “BTC crossed $117,000 on late Friday after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell hinted at a potential September interest rate cut during his speech at Jackson Hole. After that prices trended lower, eventually breaking below the $114,000 area. A sharp flush later drove BTC down to the $112,000 zone before buyers stepped in, helping the market recover modestly back toward $113,300. ETH hit a fresh all-time high on Friday, breaking its nearly four-year record by crossing the $4,920 mark. It has since pulled back slightly and is now trading near $4,750, though it remains up 9.3% over the past week.”
Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, “The crypto market witnessed a sharp split in momentum over the weekend, with Bitcoin sliding below $111K after more than $2.7B valued whale dump, though it has since stabilized and is now trading near $113K. At the same time, Ethereum surged its all-time high of $4,953.73 earlier in the day, entering bold new price discovery and inching toward the $5K mark. Dogecoin is coiling into a bullish breakout setup with potential for a 30% upside, supported by strengthening technical patterns and renewed retail activity, which often acts as a catalyst. Meanwhile, XRP continues to consolidate.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Despite Bitcoin trading down 1.5% over the past 24 hours at $113,148, Metaplanet’s aggressive accumulation signals long-term confidence. The company’s mid-cap upgrade on Japan’s FTSE Japan Index reflects growing institutional recognition.. Bitcoin’s recent dip may offer strategic accumulation opportunities for firms with strong conviction, Bitcoin currently trading around $112,600.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “Crypto is walking a fine line this morning, ETH just broke past its 2021 ATH near $4,945 on ETF flows and institutional demand, pushing its market cap toward $600B. But with sentiment softening and speculative froth building, the market feels like it’s shifting from chasing quick pops to positioning for a longer bull phase. Opportunity is real, but so is the risk.”
CoinDCX Research Team noted, “The past weekend was largely bearish for the Bitcoin price and the entire market as the levels bottomed close to $110,600. Meanwhile, Ethereum remains above $4700 after marking a new ATH at $4,955. XRP trades above $3, BNB over $875, Solana above $205, Dogecoin over $0.22, and Cardano above $0.91. This suggests, altcoins are gaining momentum and hence, the markets could be heading towards an Altseason. The top gainers for the day include VeChain with over 6.6% rise, followed by Hyperliquid by over 4.32%, Theta Network, Story, and Algorand by over 3% each.”
Parth Shrivastava, Head of Quant, 9Point Capital Research Team, said, “Bitcoin remains range-bound as low volatility dominates price action. Derivative positioning and muted ETF flows suggest limited directional conviction, with traders expecting continued chop in the near term. Historical Q3 seasonality supports a subdued trend, keeping breakout probabilities low until liquidity improves. Caution prevails while the market consolidates before its next directional move.”
