What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario

Edul Patel, CEO and co-founder, Mudrex, told ABP Live, “Bitcoin is trading near $102,200 after rebounding from key support at $100,000. Investors turned to profit booking at higher levels as macroeconomic factors like the strengthening dollar index and the US-China trade deal made equities a direct beneficiary. However, institutions continue to aggressively accumulate, with Strategy purchasing 13,390 BTC for around $1.3 billion and Metaplanet also adding 1,241 BTC to its treasury, surpassing El Salvador's bitcoin stack. All eyes are now on April’s CPI data due today. A third consecutive downside surprise could boost Bitcoin, increasing expectations for rate cuts in 2025.”

CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “The market displayed a mix of profit-taking and bullish momentum. Bitcoin (BTC) dropped below $102,000—its largest single-day decline since April 10—as investors locked in gains after a U.S.-China trade truce eased tariff tensions. Altcoins showed resilience, with Uniswap (UNI) surging 12.7% and BNB rising nearly 5%. These, along with XRP, ADA, and TRX, traded above their 200-day moving averages, signaling sustained investor confidence.”

Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, “The resurgence in crypto markets, particularly Bitcoin’s rally past $105,000, reflects growing investor confidence amid improving global macroeconomic signals. The easing of trade tensions between the US and China has removed a major overhang, injecting fresh optimism into risk assets. At Pi42, we see this momentum as a sign that retail and institutional participants are reallocating aggressively into digital assets, anticipating a new market cycle led by utility-driven altcoins and evolving narratives like AI, DePIN, and Web3 infrastructure.” 

Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “As of May 13, 2025, Bitcoin trades near $102,500, holding above the critical $100K level amid global optimism. Institutional buying, particularly by firms like Strategy, has intensified bullish sentiment. Technically, BTC is consolidating with resistance at $104,500 and support at $100K. A breakout could push it toward $110K. Market sentiment remains greedy, with rising ETF inflows and macro clarity boosting confidence. Analysts forecast targets between $120K and $225K this year, but short-term pullbacks are likely. Despite volatility, Bitcoin’s long-term trajectory looks strong, fueled by regulatory clarity, reduced supply post-halving, and the growing belief in Bitcoin as a strategic global asset.”

Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “As US and China finalize their trade deal, Bitcoin continues to hold a dominant position, trading above the key $100,000 level. Despite some profit-taking at higher resistance levels, technical analysis suggests potential for further upside. Bitcoin witnessed a slight dip due to traders liquidating their positions for profit booking. Market participants are keenly awaiting the release of U.S. inflation data, specifically the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and Producer Price Index (PPI) for April. These figures will be crucial in shaping expectations regarding the Federal Reserve's future monetary policy decisions.” 

CoinDCX Research Team noted, “After a strong upswing, the Bitcoin price is undergoing a corrective phase as the prices drop below $102,000. Despite a drop in the crypto market cap, the trading volume has surged by nearly 45%, hinting at the growing strength of the bears. Besides, Ethereum dropped below $2500, Solana below $170, while Cardano & XRP also witnessed a similar pullback. On the other hand, dogwifhat continues with its bullish trend, followed by Four & XRP attracting 2% to 4% gains, while Pi price plunges heavily by over 18%, followed by Ethena & Brett with 12% & 10% losses.”
