Shivam Thakral, CEO of BuyUcoin, said, “Bitcoin is trading around $105,000 – $106,000, showing a slight positive gain over the last 24 hours. Some analysts anticipate a “golden cross” pattern on Bitcoin’s daily chart, which could signal further bullish momentum. JP Morgan CEO has announced that bank will allow its clients to purchase Bitcoin, which is seen as a big boost from retail and institutional adoption point of view.”
Sathvik Vishwanath, CEO and co-founder of Unocoin, said, “Bitcoin is trading above $106,000, marking a historic phase of price discovery post-halving. Momentum remains bullish with strong institutional inflows and diminishing exchange reserves. Key resistance lies at $108,400, with breakout potential toward $113,000. Support is holding at $101,300, where buyers are visibly defending dips. RSI is near overbought, suggesting short-term consolidation before the next leg up. Open interest and funding rates indicate leveraged longs building across major exchanges. Market sentiment remains highly optimistic, with forecasts targeting $120,000+ within days. Unless macro shocks disrupt momentum, Bitcoin appears to be entering a vertical accumulation phase—driven by supply crunch and institutional conviction.”

Senators urge reversal of DOJ shift in digital asset enforcement priorities. On April 10, US Senators Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Mazie K. Hirono (D-HI), and Dick Durbin (D-IL) – Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs, a senior member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and Ranking Member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, respectively – announced they led six Senators in writing to urge Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche to reverse the DOJ’s recent decisions to effectively terminate its cryptocurrency investigations and prosecutions and disband its National Cryptocurrency Enforcement Team. In their letter, the Senators asserted the decisions are “grave mistakes that will support sanctions evasion, drug trafficking, scams, and child sexual exploitation” and demanded a staff-level briefing “on the rationale behind these decisions and their anticipated impacts on the Department’s ability to enforce the law and protect Americans from cryptocurrency-based crimes.”
PwC issues Global Crypto Regulation Report. In March, Price Waterhouse Coopers released its Global Crypto Regulation Report 2025. The report “provides an overview of the global regulatory landscape, how regulatory frameworks are developing across the world, and the impact on crypto and traditional financial services firms.” The report contains a “high-level snapshot of global cryptocurrency regulation,” key regulatory trends, a summary of recent developments by “key global standard-setting institutions,” and an overview of digital assets regulation across key jurisdictions.

If CPI growth is higher than expected (especially core CPI), it may strengthen market expectations for the Fed to maintain high rates or delay rate cuts, leading to a stronger dollar, tighter liquidity, thereby suppressing prices of risk assets like Bitcoin.
