What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Edul Patel, CEO and co-founder, Mudrex, told ABP Live, “Bitcoin briefly reclaimed the $108,000 level as strong institutional interest lifted market sentiment. Strategy’s $1.05 billion acquisition of 10,100 BTC and Metaplanet’s crypto reserves crossing the 10,000 BTC mark helped fuel bullish momentum in the asset, despite geopolitical tensions. Meanwhile, Ethereum whale accumulation jumped by over 818,000 ETH, marking the highest daily inflow in more than six years, supporting ETH above $2,500. Currently trading near $107,000, Bitcoin faces major resistance at $110,300, while support stands at $105,800.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “BTC slipped to $106,400 overnight amid rising Middle East tensions but rebounded as sentiment improved following Trump Media & Technology Group’s filing for a combined BTC and ETH ETF with the SEC. Institutional interest remained strong, with Strategy acquiring 10,100 BTC for $1 billion at an average price of $104,080. ETH’s futures open interest hit a yearly high of $36.56 billion, with ETH reclaiming the $2,600 level and testing a long-standing resistance zone.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “Bitcoin (BTC) trades above $107,500, demonstrating resilience despite global geo-political tensions. Ethereum (ETH) holds steady at nearly $2,600, maintaining its position as the second-largest cryptocurrency. The ongoing Middle East conflict can prove detrimental to the overall financial markets. However, global giants like Metaplanet and Microstrategy continue to increase their BTC holdings pushing the demand for the world’s largest digital asset by market cap. The crypto market may experience some volatility due to the uncertain geo-political situation in the Middle East.”
CoinDCX Research Team noted, “Buyers have displayed immense strength as the markets have begun to recover, with the Bitcoin price trading above $107.5K. The rest of the altcoins in the top 10, like Ethereum & XRP, face a notable rise, while Solana, Dogecoin, Tron & Cardano experience marginal gains. The top gainers for the day include Pendle, which has over an 8.75% rise, followed by Pudgy Penguins & Uniswap, which have over 6% each. Besides, Jito & Fartcoin plunged by nearly 6%, followed by Pepe & Immutable, with over a 4% drop each. The sentiments remain bullish while the BTC dominance continues to climb.”
Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, “Bitcoin is showing signs of strength once again, bouncing back above $107,000 following a boost from institutional interest and positive market developments. The filing of a Bitcoin and Ether ETF by Truth Social and Strategy’s $1 billion BTC purchase have added fuel to the recovery, signaling continued confidence in the digital asset. Ethereum is also gaining traction, supported by strong ETF inflows and historically low exchange reserves. However, caution lingers around some altcoins. Dogecoin must defend key support levels to avoid a sharp drop. The overall market is showing mixed signals, but leadership from Bitcoin and Ethereum is keeping the core sentiment cautiously bullish.”
Srinivas L, CEO, 9Point Capital, said, “Bitcoin is holding steady near $107K, grinding just below the key $112K breakout level. It's consolidating at the top—not breaking down. That’s bullish. We stay in the buy-the-dip camp as long as the $104K–$106K zone holds. If $112K goes, the next leg could stretch toward $120K–$137K. But we’re also respecting the chop—it’s a high-vol regime, so risk management matters more than ever. No need to overthink. Structure is strong, trend is intact. Stick to the plan: stay long, buy dips.”
