What Crypto Exchanges Are Saying About Current Market Scenario
Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Bitcoin is currently consolidating around the $68,000 level following recent liquidations. Investors and traders are closely watching the Federal Reserve’s upcoming press conference and the release of CPI data, both scheduled for tomorrow. Bears are attempting to push the price below $68,000, but bulls may also engage in strong buying at this level. The next support level for BTC is at $67,400, while resistance is at $68,600.”
Parth Chaturvedi, Head of Investments, CoinSwitch Ventures, said, “BTC failed to breach the all time highs, and fell by 2%. This shows that the market sentiment in the near short term. An analysis however from 2011 prices till now shows that BTC has in fact given a 104% CAGR beating both the US Stock Market and Warren Buffett’s portfolio in returns. The broader altcoin market is displaying a downward trend. The recently launched memecoin NOT suffered the most with it being 14% down as people booked profits out of the TON’s top memecoin. Another famous memecoin, PEPE was down 9% as well with 24 hr overall crypto market liquidations reaching more than 150 million dollars as per the data from coinglass.”
Rajagopal Menon, Vice President, WazirX, said, “Bitcoin (BTC) is facing intense pressure, dragging altcoins to new lows. Currently priced at $68,197, BTC has dropped 2.21% in the last 24 hours. The struggle to surpass all-time highs is linked to a slowdown in stablecoin minting post-halving. However, a head-and-shoulders formation in BTC could soon break the resistance line, potentially pushing its price toward $83,000 in the near term.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “The end of the US-Saudi petrodollar agreement on June 9, 2024 marks a significant shift in global financial dynamics that Bitcoin may benefit from. As Saudi Arabia explores alternatives such as the Chinese RMB, euros and digital currencies, the move could reduce reliance on the US dollar and boost inflation. Bitcoin, with its fixed supply and decentralized nature, may become the preferred hedge against inflation. As traditional fiat currencies devalue, Bitcoin’s attractiveness as an investment could increase, leading to long-term appreciation. Trading at $69,600 with resistance at $70,100, Bitcoin futures look bullish if it stays above the $69,100 pivot point.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “The Bitcoin-led investment activity added over $1.97 billion in inflows while Ethereum witnessed its best performance since March by adding almost $70 million in inflows as per the data from Coinshares. The recent dip in prices has sparked buying activity mainly from institutional investors as digital asset prepares for their next bull run. The regulatory developments and positive macroeconomic factors may lead to greater momentum in the second half of 2024.”
CoinDCX Research Team told ABP Live, “In the last 24 hours, the crypto market continued to slide down. BTC touched $68,000 while ETH dipped below $3,600. Altcoins also saw significant drops. This week will be important and highly volatile for the crypto market due to the upcoming FOMC meetings and U.S. CPI and PPI announcements. Technically, the trend is bearish in the lower time frame, but in the higher time frame, it remains bullish.”

Cryptoquant’s Ki Young Ju Warns Bitcoin’s Bear Market Could Run Into Early 2027
Key Takeaways
Still Some Time To Go Till The Bears Retreat
Bitcoin’s bear market may still have a year or more to run, according to Cryptoquant founder and chief executive Ki Young Ju, who spelled out the timeline in a post on X. “Once profit-taking cascades, Bitcoin investors’ PnL typically falls for about 18 months.” Ju wrote, using shorthand for aggregate investor profit and loss (PnL). “Since the trend turned in Oct 2025, the bear market could last until early 2027.”
His reasoning hinges on the direction of realized profits. Put simply, holders are still sitting on paper gains they are steadily cashing in, a dynamic that historically keeps pressure on price until that selling burns itself out. The PnL index he relies on blends several onchain valuation gauges (including the market-value-to-realized-value (MVRV) ratio and net unrealized profit and loss) into a single trend line that peaked around mid-2025 and has been sliding since.
The warning extends a position Ju has pressed for much of the past year, as he first declared bitcoin’s bull cycle over in 2025, citing a widening gap between the asset’s realized capitalization and its market capitalization.
Not Everyone, Including Cryptoquant’s Own Data, Agrees
The bleak timeline is far from settled even inside Ju’s own firm, as Cryptoquant’s Bull-Bear Cycle Indicator turned green on May 12 for the first time since March 2023, a signal that has historically coincided with the start of more constructive conditions.
Other analysts are more bullish still, with research firm K33 contending bitcoin’s roughly $60,000 February low already marked the maximum drawdown of this cycle (a decline of about 52% from the record $126,272 the asset printed on Oct. 6, 2025).
The split reveals a murky mid-cycle picture, because if Ju is right, traders face another grinding stretch before realized profits reset, and the next leg higher can begin. If the greening cycle indicator and steady ETF inflows win out, the bottom may already be in.
Either way, Ju has handed the market a clear tripwire to watch wherein the moment unrealized profits start climbing while realized profits fade, the 18-month clock he describes would finally be ready to flip.

Certik Unveils ‘Anti-Virus for AI Agents’ as Skill Marketplaces Face Hidden Threats
Key Takeaways
- Certik launched a security platform to provide an “anti-virus” layer for agent ecosystems.
- Sector audits reveal high risks, but CertiK aims to protect marketplaces with 90.5% scanning precision.
- Finchip.ai is among platforms expanding integrations ahead of future consumer-facing scan updates.
The Security Challenge
Blockchain and AI security firm Certik, on May 27, unveiled a new security platform designed to evaluate risks in third-party artificial intelligence (AI) skills. Dubbed the “anti-virus for AI agents,” the release comes amid growing industry concern over the security of AI skill marketplaces.
Security researchers have warned that many of these skills are unvetted, can execute system-level actions and may contain hidden malicious behavior, creating a new software supply chain risk for the AI era. Security audits across the sector have identified risks ranging from credential harvesting and data exfiltration to fund-transfer manipulation and prompt-based override attacks.
Despite these concerns, AI skill marketplaces have expanded rapidly as agent ecosystems mature. However, unlike traditional app stores, most skills are sourced from public repositories with little or no review. Analysts say this creates opportunities for attackers to embed harmful instructions, trigger unauthorized data access or manipulate autonomous execution flows.
In a recent blog post, Certik said its skill scanner platform is designed specifically to evaluate risks that emerge during execution, including scenarios involving financial transactions or fund calls. The scanner produces a numerical score from 0 to 100, along with “pass,” “warn” or “fail” verdicts and categorized findings. According to the company, the system achieves up to 90.5% precision in identifying security risks.
“As AI agents become more deeply integrated into financial systems, enterprise workflows and everyday digital interactions, the security model around third-party skills becomes critically important,” said Ronghui Gu, Certik’s CEO and co-founder. “CertiK Skill Scanner was built to establish a standardized trust layer before execution, helping users and platforms identify hidden risks before sensitive data, assets or systems are exposed.”
Certik said AI skill marketplaces can integrate the scanner directly into publishing pipelines, automatically reviewing skills before they go live and displaying security verdicts to users. Enterprises can deploy the tool as part of internal compliance and risk-management workflows, while independent developers can use it to self-audit skills before publishing.
The company said future updates will allow everyday users to scan skills themselves before installation. The scanner has already been deployed in select Web3 AI agent infrastructure environments. Certik is also expanding integrations with additional platforms, including Finchip.ai.
“Trust is the prerequisite for any skill economy to function at scale,” said Gary Yang, incubation investor at Finchip.ai. “CertiK’s work on skill security verification is exactly what this ecosystem needs. It’s what makes Finchip’s mission of programmable skill ownership and distribution worth building.”
The launch follows Certik’s expansion into AI-focused security infrastructure. Earlier this year, the company introduced its AI Auditor initiative to address risks tied to autonomous systems and AI-driven execution environments.
“AI applications are moving toward increasingly autonomous execution, which creates a new category of security and trust challenges,” Gu said. “We believe security infrastructure for the AI era must function proactively, not reactively.”
