Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “In the past 24 hours, Bitcoin has been trading at around the $35,000 level. This price movement could potentially be attributed to traders cashing in their Bitcoin holdings and shifting their investments towards altcoins, resulting in a rise in their prices. Another possible influencing factor is the US reporting the addition of 150,000 jobs in October, which falls short of the economist-predicted 180,000 and is a decline from the 297,000 jobs added in September. The unemployment rate has also increased to 3.9 percent, exceeding the expected 3.8 percent. In the same timeframe, Ethereum has maintained a steady trading level near $1,900, while Ripple has experienced a significant price surge of more than 9.6 percent.”
Parth Chaturvedi, Investments Lead, CoinSwitch Ventures, said, “The recent rally from last week crypto has boosted investor sentiment, as the crypto fear an agreed index has jumped four points from yesterday to be within the greed zone with a score of 74/100. While the price momentum may look short-term, market analysts are seeing signs of sustainable demand driving the crypto uptrend. The top 10 cryptos by M.Cap. consists of a mix of red and green. BTC (-0.5 percent) seems to be consolidating just around $35,000 after hovering between $34,000 and $35,000. And while BTC is down 0.5 percent, ETH is up 1.3 percent on the back of increased engagements by whales on the network. In the DeFi space, lending protocol Aave (+0.3 percent) has paused certain operations as a temporary protection measure after coming across some issues; user funds remain safe.”
Rajagopal Menon, Vice President, WazirX, said, “Bitcoin bulls have retained the market optimism with the token recovering on Sunday alongside Ethereum, after a brief setback following FTX verdict. Cardano and XRP are on an upward trajectory, defying bearish sentiments and indicating new highs for the coming days.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “The crypto market had an exciting weekend as BTC breached the $35,000 mark once again. In an interesting move, ETH outperformed BTC by a few basis points in the last seven days. Ethereum touched the $1,900 mark as the impressive rally attracted fresh capital into the Ethereum smart contract ecosystem. The Ripple vs SEC lawsuit’s outcome seems to be leaning towards Ripple which resulted in a mini rally of close to 10 percent in its native token XRP. The overall digital asset market is poised for healthy growth in the long term.”
CoinDCX Research Team told ABP Live, “During the weekend, BTC traded within a range of $34,000 to $35,000, while ETH delivered positive returns, surpassing the $1,875 resistance level and outperforming BTC. Furthermore, there was a decrease of over 1.5 percent in BTC dominance, indicating potential opportunities for altcoins to shine. ETH dominance has also found support, potentially signalling a recovery. It’s worth mentioning that the recently released macro data, including the US Non-Farm Employment Change (Monthly) and US Unemployment Rate (Monthly) announcements on Friday, has had a neutral to positive impact on the crypto space.”
