Bitcoin drops 4.8% in an hour—are the bears celebrating?

Yet open interest quietly rises by 8.2%: it jumps from 13.1M to 14.3M, then slips back to 14.1M. When it’s falling, someone is actually putting real money on the table.
The funding rate just turned negative: -0.0008%. Bears have the edge, but going forward, every extra second of holding increases the cost—bit by bit, it keeps biting.
Trading volume: $42.2M, market cap: $107.3M. Ten pieces of news are trending on the feed—sure, it’s lively, but the direction is a false one.
Conclusion: The more effortlessly the bears seem to be moving, the more you need to guard against a counterpunch from a low-level short-covering bounce.

Risk warning: Negative funding isn’t “free” chips—it’s a shackle the shorts put on themselves.
