While a $390,000 short got liquidated, LIT quietly surged 7.65%, and discussions on Binance Square exploded by 2.75x—here’s the question: who exactly is pushing this move?

It’s not news. Over the past two days, the project team has issued no announcements, and GitHub hasn’t seen any new activity.

The real driver is short covering: a $3.94 million short position was liquidated, with only a $0.58 million long position trailing along. The price was pushed up hard—one screenshot posted, and more followers piled in.

More striking is the leverage: open interest climbed to $564 million, which is 12.7 times the spot trading volume for the day ($44.51 million), accounting for 43.7% of market cap. At this kind of proportion, the more violent the rally, the more it looks like papier-mâché.

I’m not watching this 7.65% green candle in LIT—I’m watching the $564 million in open interest. Spot volume is only $44.51 million per day, and the leverage builds up a full 12.7x of artificial “fire.” I’m leaning toward a short-term pullback unless we see spot follow-through and OI start dropping together. Only when both signals appear at the same time could this shift from a leverage game into genuine buy-side demand.
