Sathvik Vishwanath, co-founder & CEO, Unocoin said "Bitcoin's price, resilient around $42,000 despite a recent 2% dip, reflects global financial dynamics. The Fed's decision to maintain rates at 5.25%-5.50% and China's policy adjustments contribute to the narrative. El Salvador's steadfast support for Bitcoin, Kiyosaki's advocacy, and US scrutiny of crypto mining's energy usage add layers to the discussion,"
He added, "While the Fed's cautious stance fuels speculation, El Salvador's defiance of IMF reservations shapes sentiment. Kiyosaki's endorsement could sway public perception, while US scrutiny aims to regulate energy-intensive mining practices. Bitcoin faces resistance at $43,922, $45,229, and $46,446, with support at $40,790, $39,006, and $37,514, highlighting pivotal levels for price action. Despite the RSI indicating neutral momentum, the MACD signals a bearish trajectory, especially below $42,185."
