What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario

Akshat Siddhant, Lead Quant Analyst, Mudrex, told ABP Live, “Bitcoin is stabilizing above the $90,000 mark after attempting to break the resistance near $94,000. However, the market remains bullish with Strategy acquiring 10,624 BTC worth nearly $1 billion in the past week. Crypto investment products also saw a second straight week of inflows, totaling $716 million, reflecting improving sentiment. Meanwhile, Ethereum is in focus as whales opened over $425 million in long positions, signaling confidence in further upside. For ETH, $3,237 remains the key resistance, while $3,000 continues to serve as a strong support level.”

Nischal Shetty, Founder, WazirX, noted, “In the past 24 hours, global markets have delivered a powerful reminder that crypto does not operate in isolation. The BIS warning about a rare simultaneous surge in gold and equities, a potential “double bubble,” highlights an environment driven by excess liquidity rather than fundamentals. When liquidity becomes the dominant force, cross-asset correlations tighten dramatically. Crypto, especially Ethereum, is increasingly traded as part of the broader risk-asset ecosystem rather than as a separate financial frontier.”

CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “BTC attempted a small weekend bounce but is now trading around $90K. Broader crypto sentiment remained cautious as global bond yields spiked, especially Japan’s 10-year yield nearing a 20-year high—pressuring risk assets. U.S. equities also dipped ahead of this week’s final Federal Reserve meeting, where a 25 bps rate cut is expected, though guidance could drive volatility. BTC is holding steady above the $90K zone after facing resistance near $91.5K. In the short term, price may continue to range between $90K–$91K, with a break above $91.5K opening room toward $92K.”

Vikram Subburaj, CEO, Giottus, said, “Bitcoin slid slightly and is holding near the $90,000 zone, but the market tone remains cautious as liquidity has thinned and participation has noticeably faded into year-end. Multiple desks highlight the same issue: spot demand is soft, ETF flows are still negative, and futures activity has reset to much lower levels. With more than seven million BTC now sitting at an unrealized loss and hedging costs elevated, the market is signalling reluctance to chase upside until visibility improves.”

Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, “Crypto market is at a critical junction as Bitcoin trades just above $90,000 and struggles with resistance around $92,000 while liquidity remains shallow. Institutional caution is clear ahead of the upcoming FOMC meeting as participants parse policy cues and any shift in the rate outlook. Ethereum is drawing attention as whales add long exposure and traders eye a move toward $3,500 if momentum builds. ETF flows and thin order books mean that both upside breakouts and sharp reversals can happen quickly.” 

CoinDCX Research Team noted, “Bitcoin volatility is on the rise as the prices drop back below $90,000 in the early trading hours. Although the selling pressure is within the average levels, the apathy among the bulls is believed to have caused the slump. Besides, Ethereum and XRP sustain above their respective thresholds at $3000 and $2, but Solana drops back close to $132, BNB below $900, Dogecoin heads to $0.14, and Cardano trades around $0.42. The top gainers for the day include Canton with over a 15.46% jump, followed by Zcash by a 13.16% rise, and Worldcoin by a 4.66% rise. Besides, DoubleZero plunges by over 10.87%, followed by Bitcoin Cash by 4.06% and Starknet by 3.78%.”
