LINK is around 8.29 now; I’m going to observe this spot first.
The news flow is indeed lively—this whole narrative about tokenization and RWA is being mentioned repeatedly, and some institutions are even calling for 200 dollars. Sentiment points also surged into positive territory, and KOLs are overwhelmingly bullish. But the issue is that the money still hasn’t really come in.
On the spot market, large orders have been net outflows for several cycles. Over the past three hours, the funding flow line spans 12 candles with not a single bullish candle—the whole line is retreating. At the same time, whale accounts’ net long positions are also being reduced, not increased. They’re cutting positions.
This doesn’t match the “hot” momentum from the news at all.
Now look at the leverage side: the spot long/short ratio is wildly high, with longs packed very tightly. In this kind of structure, price becomes more sensitive to sell pressure. Once sentiment cools down, volatility is likely to be amplified.
To put it plainly, this rebound is more like the narrative is propping it up, rather than actual capital pushing it. After the price just bounced off the low at 8.16 back to 8.29, the short-term moving averages have only just stabilized after holding; if you want it to truly strengthen, you need to see when big-order capital decides to turn back.
Here, I won’t chase longs, and I won’t rush to short either. The key is whether the pullback gets support—whether the funding flow line can flip to positive. Once the capital shows a clear choice, it’ll be more comfortable to take action.
