What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario

CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “Yesterday, BTC reached $104,800 before facing resistance and is currently stabilizing around the $103,700 level. This marks the fifth consecutive day that BTC has held above the critical $100K threshold, reflecting sustained bullish sentiment. The global crypto market cap rose by 2%, reclaiming the $3.5 trillion mark. ETH continued its strong run, surging by 8.2%, while AVAX gained 9.7% and SOL advanced 6.5%. On the macro front, U.S. inflation cooled further in April, with the annual rate easing to 2.3%—its lowest since February 2021 and below expectations.”

Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “This level of greed suggests that investor sentiment is leaning toward optimism, potentially driven by recent bullish trends in major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Bitcoin continues to trade comfortably above $100,000 as it maintains dominance in the crypto market. Pi Coin's price surged by roughly 50% ahead of a major ecosystem update scheduled for today. Speculation about strategic artnerships and potential listings has fuelled trader excitement. The latest CPI data showed inflations numbers at its lowest since 2021 which will influence Fed’s decision to cut interest rates.”

Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, “Bitcoin's surge past the $100,000 mark was a critical psychological milestone, but the sharp rejection at $106,000 highlights the intense selling pressure at local highs. While macro factors like easing US-China trade tensions provided short-term tailwinds, the swift correction below $101,000 reminds us that volatility remains a defining characteristic of the crypto market. Altcoins, particularly PI, have borne the brunt of the pullback—with PI down over 25%—as capital rotates back into BTC amid uncertainty. Going forward, market participants should brace for choppier price action, especially if Bitcoin fails to reclaim and consolidate above $105K.” 

Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin is trading near $103,500 as markets absorb April's CPI report showing steady inflation. With the Fed now under less pressure to hike rates, BTC is gaining traction as a hedge and high-yield store of value. A bullish MACD crossover and RSI at 54 suggest rising momentum, though resistance at $105,000 remains a key barrier. Whales like Tether are accumulating, while some ETFs show profit-booking, signaling mixed institutional sentiment. If BTC breaks above $105K, a run toward $110K is plausible. Traders are watching closely for NY session volatility. A calm CPI keeps Bitcoin's uptrend cautiously intact, fueling crypto confidence this week.”

CoinDCX Research Team noted, “After the recent upswing, the Bitcoin price is consolidating within a narrow range, withstanding the bearish pressure. As a result, the altcoins also remain above their respective resistance levels. The Ethereum price is attracting huge gains as it rises above $2600, and Dogecoin propels above $0.23. Meanwhile, the Pi price resumes its bullish trend by surging more than 20%, followed by Ethena with 18%, The Graph by 13.12%, and Raydium with 11.23%. Besides, a couple of altcoins, like Four, Pudgy Penguins & DeXe, undergo minor losses, which could be recovered soon.”
