What Crypto Traders Are Saying About Current Market Scenario

Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, "Bitcoin maintained its upward momentum over the weekend, edging closer to the $100,000 milestone. The rally helped Bitcoin regain its 50-day moving average, signalling a potential continuation of the bull market. Additionally, institutions like Meteplanet and MicroStrategy added to the momentum through their plans of accumulating more Bitcoin. Despite the price action, Bitcoin’s dominance remains at 55.6% suggesting a rally across the broader market in the coming week.”

Thangapandi Durai, CEO and Founder, Koinpark, said, “Bitcoin’s performance this week underscores both resilience and opportunity in the market. MicroStrategy’s decision to expand its holdings reinforces institutional confidence in Bitcoin’s long-term potential, while ETF outflows reflect the natural ebb and flow of a maturing asset class. On the technical side, Bitcoin has held strong support around $97,000 and is testing resistance near $99,000. A breakout above this level could signal upward momentum, while current stability suggests healthy consolidation.”
