While talking to Republic about the current crypto market conditions, Parth Chaturvedi, Investments Lead, CoinSwitch Ventures said, “After sliding almost 11 per cent over the past 7 days, BTC and ETH have stabilised near around $26,000 and below $1,700, respectively. Searching for concrete reasoning, the market seems to be inclined towards believing that the fall of BTC, and thereby, the crypto market last week came from a correction as sentiments around BTC ETFs cool off.”

“However, there could be other reasons too, including the low volume and volatility of BTC, the current state of China’s economy, and a rise in US treasury yields,” Chaturvedi added. 

Sudeep Saxena, Co-Founder, CoinGabbar said, “As the US moves closer to introducing a Bitcoin (BTC) spot exchange-traded fund (ETF), supporters are considering the advantages it could bring. If the spot ETF gets the green light, it would validate Bitcoin and other virtual currencies, potentially attracting substantial institutional investment.”

XRP led the gainers even though the SEC challenged the June court ruling in favour of Ripple Labs.
