Bitcoin is currently trading at $94,200 (roughly Rs. 80.3 lakh) on international exchanges, amid aggressive acqusition by whales and institutions. The asset's value rose by 7.80 percent over the past seven days, and saw a marginal 0.12 percent increase on global exchanges on Monday. On Indian exchanges, the Bitcoin price fell by 0.09 percent, and it is currently trading between $91,400 (roughly Rs. 78 lakh) and $94,1450 (roughly Rs. 80.3 lakh). The month of April was a challenging period for Bitcoin investors, when the asset fell to its lowest level (in 2025) to trade at $76,000 (roughly Rs. 64.8 lakh) owing to macroeconomic changes and the trade war between China and the US.

“For now, BTC faces immediate resistance at $96,000 (roughly Rs. 81.9 lakh), while remains at $90,500 (roughly Rs. 77.2 lakh). Glassnode data reveals a sharp rise in Whale accumulations, with wallets holding over 10,000 BTC increasing from 124,000 to 137,600 over the past month. This steady accumulation strengthens Bitcoin's upward momentum,” Edul Patel, Co-founder and CEO of Mudrex told Gadgets 360.

The price of Ether fell by 0.33 percent on international exchanges, according to CoinMarketCap. As of Monday, ETH is trading at $1,792 (roughly Rs. 1.52 lakh) on global platforms. The asset followed Bitcoin to losses on Indian exchanges. At present, ETH is priced around $1,798 (roughly Rs. 1.53 lakh) on platforms like CoinSwitch and CoinDCX.
