$NOK In the past 24 hours, it fell 3.909%, and the price is now 10.57. There’s a contradiction in the on-chain contract order book: the price is dropping, but the funding rate is zero, and the open interest of a bit over 730,000 hasn’t changed much.
A zero funding rate usually suggests that long and short sentiment is relatively neutral, with no side aggressively paying the other. When the price falls, if the shorts are very aggressive, the funding rate often turns negative, because shorts have to pay longs to maintain their positions. Now that the rate has stopped at zero, the decline may be more due to sell pressure in the spot market, or longs in the futures market closing positions and exiting, rather than shorts actively opening new positions to pressure the price.
On the other hand, a zero funding rate also means that if more bad news comes later, shorts have plenty of room to enter and the costs are low. But based on the current data, I tend to believe that in this round of NOK’s drop, the futures market’s shorting consensus hasn’t fully formed. The open interest hasn’t risen much, which suggests that no large wave of new short futures positions has been established.
Next, I need to watch how the funding rate changes. If the price keeps falling but the funding rate remains zero—or even turns positive—the downside momentum may be weak. But if the price falls while the funding rate quickly turns negative, that would be a signal that shorts are truly starting to push harder, and the drop could accelerate.
For now, my move is to observe.
