Wow, AAVE has truly gone god mode today! In one day, it jumped 17 “points” to 173, hitting a new high since January this year. Total trading volume for the whole day was $540 million!
But there’s a detail in the derivatives market to watch: for 7 hours, open interest went from 620 million U to 838 million U, up 17.5%. Every fraction of price increase is backed by real capital, not just a spot market “fake pump.” In 20 hours, 420,000 coins were added to reach 483,000.
However, the big players are pulling the ladder away: the large trader long/short ratio slid from 2.18 down to 1.87, and the percentage of accounts betting long fell from 68.5% to 65%. The more the price is pulled up, the more the big players reduce. Retail investors are raising the sedan-chair, while the big players set up stalls on the side selling goods.
The fee rate is only 0.01%—positive, but not that high; not yet “too hot.” This DeFi momentum was sparked by CRV rallying 18% and then burning for two days, ultimately reaching Aave. If the big players’ long/short ratio drops below 1.8 and hasn’t rebounded yet, be careful—watch for the pattern of “pulling up while withdrawing.”

Wow, Brandt is calling for a new ticket again! This time it’s XLM. In his exact words, it’s a long-term “good ticket” for the next few years—he’s looking at chart signals, not hype.
The data backs him up: XLM is now 0.231, up 11% in 24 hours and up 28% in a month. In terms of derivatives open interest, over 6 hours it increased from 271 million coins to 283 million. The price is rising and open interest is rising too—this is a genuine accumulation. Big players holding long at 69% didn’t let go, and the long/short ratio stayed steady at 2.25.
There are also two clear fundamental confirmations: BVNK, a Mastercard subsidiary, has brought Stellar into its stablecoin payments platform, and Spectra Finance has issued a Janus Henderson government bond tokenization product on Stellar. For someone like Brandt—an old-school hunter who only ever looks at charts—it’s not easy to call something like this even once.
