What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario

Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin continued its New Year rally, reclaiming the $100,000 milestone, driven largely by significant ETF inflows. On Monday, BTC spot ETFs saw net inflows of $759 million, building on the $900 million inflows from the previous session, taking Bitcoin into six-figure territory. Additionally, the anticipation of pro-crypto candidate Pierre Poilievre becoming Canada’s next prime minister, replacing Justin Trudeau strengthened the market sentiment increasing broader market activity. Currently trading at $102,000, Bitcoin faces its next resistance at $104,700 with support moving up to $98,500.”

Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, “The crypto market is experiencing a boom in 2025, with Bitcoin, XRP, and Solana having effectively captured the attention of investors with their tremendous potential gains. Bitcoin has just recently surpassed the dreaded and psychological resistance of the $100k mark, and optimism is that by February, it could climb to $138,000 as the market cycle is favorable and the risk of major dips are less. Meanwhile, Solana's strong movement this climbing month could push its value up to $400 after an enormous upside and increasing dominance in decentralized finance. XRP's recent signals are showing bullish momentum. Investors can see an explosive price jump to $4.54 after a corrective pullback and positive movement through clear resistances.” 

Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin (BTC) has seen significant price volatility over the past 24 hours, reaching an intraday low of $97,274 and a high of $99,892, currently priced at $98,861. Technical indicators suggest that BTC is testing resistance around $98,000 with the potential to break above $100,000. However, failure to break this level could lead to a pullback towards support between $95,000 and $92,000. The Relative Strength Index is at 54.046, signaling neutral market conditions. The short-term moving averages indicate a "Buy" signal, while the long-term moving averages indicate a "Sell" signal, reflecting mixed market sentiment.”

Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “Bitcoin has remarkably returned to the six-digit number, trading above $102,500 with a notable 3.24% increase in the last 24 hours. This resurgence follows a strong upward momentum as the cryptocurrency market reacts positively to recent developments, including increased institutional interest and favorable regulatory news. Investors anticipate that Bitcoin's bullish trend could continue, potentially reaching new all-time highs as adoption grows and market sentiment remains optimistic. With Bitcoin ETFs gaining traction and broader acceptance of cryptocurrencies, investors are encouraged by the prospect of sustained growth in 2025.” 

Sumit Gupta, co-founder, CoinDCX, said, “After 2 weeks Bitcoin's price surged past $100,000, signaling strong bullish momentum after clearing key resistance levels at $96,500 and $98,800. Btc reached a high of $102,479 before entering a consolidation phase. It currently holds above $100,000, supported by a short-term bullish trend. With the price maintaining its position above the 100-hour simple moving average,Bitcoin remains poised for further gains. Breaking the $102,500 resistance could open doors for another upward leg,  As Bitcoin demonstrates resilience and upward potential, traders and investors are closely watching these levels to gauge the crypto's next move.”
