Crypto Market Forecast 30 October 2024

Oct 30, 10:17 PM

The crypto market currently displays high volatility, especially for Bitcoin and Ripple's XRP, with projections of strong price swings and bearish sentiment in the short term. Ether, Solana, and Uniswap are expected to face mild bearish conditions, whereas Binance Coin shows a contrasting bullish outlook.

In the broader market context, Bitcoin has reached a seven-month high of $72,000, driven by significant interest from newly approved crypto ETFs, allowing institutional investors to enter the market. Anticipation is building for a potential surge to $80,000, with increasing short-term calls and substantial liquidations indicating continued volatility. Notably, $262 million was liquidated in just 24 hours, with $214 million in short positions.

Elsewhere, Binance has launched Binance Wealth, a premium service designed for high-net-worth clients in Asia and Latin America, emphasizing a traditional wealth management experience in the crypto space. Kraken, meanwhile, received 25 million OP tokens from the Optimism Foundation, valued at around $42.5 million, to support the development of its layer-2 network, Ink, which will join Optimism’s "Superchain."

Crypto Market Forecast 30 October 2024 


In the near term, Bitcoin and Ripple’s XRP could experience continued high volatility, with price corrections or surges depending on market sentiment. The rapid liquidation of short positions and bullish momentum from institutional ETF investments may sustain Bitcoin’s upward trend, possibly pushing it toward $80,000 if this buying pressure remains. Binance Coin is likely to maintain its positive trajectory, especially with the interest generated by Binance Wealth among affluent clients in emerging markets.

Longer term, the broader crypto market could see a return to bullish sentiment, as indicated by the weekly outlook. The expansion of projects like Kraken’s Ink on Optimism and Binance’s wealth management services will likely attract more institutional interest and support price stability across several cryptocurrencies.
