As per CoinMarketCap data, here are the top five crypto losers over the past 24 hours:
Edul Patel, CEO and co-founder, Mudrex, told ABP Live, “Ethereum hit another all-time high of $4,953, building on Friday’s momentum as the Fed chair hinted at a rate cut in September. Over the past 48 hours, about 200,000 ETH have been withdrawn from exchanges, suggesting a potential supply squeeze in the near term. Alongside this, Corporate accumulation by Ethereum treasury companies has also contributed to the uptrend. BitMine Immersion accumulated about $45 million in ETH over the weekend, bringing its holdings to $7 billion. Currently trading at $4,760, ETH’s next leg of rally could breach the $5000 mark with strong support at $4,400.”
CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “BTC crossed $117,000 on late Friday after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell hinted at a potential September interest rate cut during his speech at Jackson Hole. After that prices trended lower, eventually breaking below the $114,000 area. A sharp flush later drove BTC down to the $112,000 zone before buyers stepped in, helping the market recover modestly back toward $113,300. ETH hit a fresh all-time high on Friday, breaking its nearly four-year record by crossing the $4,920 mark. It has since pulled back slightly and is now trading near $4,750, though it remains up 9.3% over the past week.”
Avinash Shekhar, Co-founder & CEO, Pi42, said, “The crypto market witnessed a sharp split in momentum over the weekend, with Bitcoin sliding below $111K after more than $2.7B valued whale dump, though it has since stabilized and is now trading near $113K. At the same time, Ethereum surged its all-time high of $4,953.73 earlier in the day, entering bold new price discovery and inching toward the $5K mark. Dogecoin is coiling into a bullish breakout setup with potential for a 30% upside, supported by strengthening technical patterns and renewed retail activity, which often acts as a catalyst. Meanwhile, XRP continues to consolidate.”
Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “Crypto is walking a fine line this morning, ETH just broke past its 2021 ATH near $4,945 on ETF flows and institutional demand, pushing its market cap toward $600B. But with sentiment softening and speculative froth building, the market feels like it’s shifting from chasing quick pops to positioning for a longer bull phase. Opportunity is real, but so is the risk.”
Parth Shrivastava, Head of Quant, 9Point Capital Research Team, said, “Bitcoin remains range-bound as low volatility dominates price action. Derivative positioning and muted ETF flows suggest limited directional conviction, with traders expecting continued chop in the near term. Historical Q3 seasonality supports a subdued trend, keeping breakout probabilities low until liquidity improves. Caution prevails while the market consolidates before its next directional move.”
