Bitcoin Funding Rate Hits 10% as Open Interest Rebounds
🚨 Warning: Leverage is maxed out! BTC funding rate has surged to 10%, open interest has skyrocketed—big breakout/turning point countdown! Many people only watch K-line charts for bullish or bearish moves, but they ignore the derivatives market that’s going off like an alarm. At the moment, Bitcoin’s funding rate has already surged to an astonishing 10% (annualized). At the same time, open interest (OI) is showing a sharp, straight-line rebound. When these two figures are combined, it’s basically telling the entire market one thing: crazy off-exchange capital is going long at any cost with high leverage, and retail investors’ FOMO has reached its peak.
After the Non-Farm Payrolls came out, my biggest takeaway is that the Fed has even more compelling reasons to hold steady in October.
First, let’s look at a few key figures. Non-Farm Payrolls increased by only 29,000, far below the expected 84,000. The unemployment rate rose to 4.2%. In addition, revisions over the previous two months total a downward adjustment of 60,000. In the interest rate swap market, traders now price the probability of a rate hike in October at just 17%. Even more striking, the Kalshi prediction market prices a higher chance of holding rates steady in October at 85%.
The CME FedWatch data change is also very straightforward— the probability of keeping rates unchanged in October rose from about 76% the previous day to 86%.
In fact, before the Non-Farm Payrolls were released, Fed officials had already been signaling this. New York Fed President Williams said there is “no need for urgency” around the next rate hike, and Vice Chair Jefferson also noted that policymakers need more time to observe the data. Allianz Chief Economic Advisor Mohamed El-Erian commented as well that this set of data will further reinforce the impact of recent Fed officials’ remarks, and market expectations for an October rate hike are cooling.
However, keep in mind: this Non-Farm report only makes rate hikes feel “less urgent,” but it does not mean a policy turn. Inflation is still the Fed’s top concern. While the probability of no move in October is high, how things play out in December will depend on subsequent inflation data.

The essence of trading is simply waiting for the flowers to bloom. When you’ve watched the order book and the candlestick charts long enough, you know where things will rise and where they’ll fall—everyone has that figured out. What’s hard is that most people just want the flowers to open immediately, to enter the market immediately, without the patience to wait for the season when they bloom. Their money either comes with a high price tag or ongoing costs, or it’s just waiting to pay rent and buy meals. So they can’t wait for the blooming season; they end up becoming fertilizer for the flowers too soon—turning into liquidity in the market itself and losing all their chips.

🚨 Stop slandering ETH as weak! Up 70.9% straight in Q3! Shutting down all the bearish “altcoin” doubters—before the surge in Q4, is there still a chance to get in? (Recommended to share and save)

🔹 Data speaks: the real big sell-off reversal already happened:
Just wrapped up Q3, and Ethereum quietly surged 70.9%! It directly outperformed BTC’s同期 (same period) gain of 43.6%!
Those who used to shout “Ethereum can’t move”—all got slapped in the face!
---
🔹 Why will the rebound in Q4 be even fiercer?
1️⃣ Rapid capital rotation: BTC consolidates at high levels, while major institutions are racing ahead to capture the liquidity increase from spot ETH ETFs! 2️⃣ On-chain deflation engine restarted: Layer 2 transaction volume explodes—staking and locking (TVL) both hit new highs! 3️⃣ Q4 seasonal tailwind: Based on historical 10-year data, Q4 is often when mainstream coins show the strongest breakout power!
---
📌 Practical strategy & support levels (save screenshots recommended):
• Short-term: Range-trade and shake out near resistance; watch the strong support zone at 2,850 - 2,920 (buy in batches on pullbacks). • Medium/long-term: When the exchange rate finds its bottom, build positions in batches; the target is to go straight for the previous high breakout!

🚨 On the first day of October, BTC, ETH, and BNB all bounce back together.
But there’s a signal even more important than the rise itself:
Price moves first, but the capital hasn’t fully confirmed yet.
Over the past period, large ETF inflows had returned strongly.
But after October begins:
🟢 BTC regains strength 🔥 ETH and BNB warm up in sync 💰 ETF capital is still in the market, but the inflow pace has cooled ⚠️ Spot demand and trading enthusiasm haven’t exploded in tandem
This creates the most critical contradiction for tonight:
Is the market’s price already pricing in the next wave of capital returning early, or did it take a step up without enough incremental funds?
If, next, ETF inflows and spot demand are amplified again, this bounce could upgrade from a “rebound” into a real trend.
But if capital continues to stand by—
The first bullish candle of October may only be a probe.
So tonight, I’m not focusing on how bullish things look.
You received what appeared to be a normal USDT payment, and your wallet also shows “USDT”.
So, you completed the transaction without further verification. But this “USDT” might not be the USDT you think it is.
Scammers can create counterfeit tokens that look identical to legitimate ones. However, only when you try to exchange or sell them do you find that their actual value may be far lower than you expected.

But this time, what Wall Street really wants to know might not be how much the EPS beat is.
Instead, it’s a question worth tens of trillions of dollars:
With all that money being burned by AI—are they actually starting to make profits yet?
In the past few years, tech giants have been疯狂 buying GPUs, building data centers, and racing for power and compute capacity.
Now the pressure is starting to show:
🤖 AI demand is still exploding 💰 Cloud providers’ capital expenditures continue to expand 🔥 Orders for AI chips and memory remain tight ⚠️ But the market is starting to ask: how long before the spending turns into profits?
Micron’s latest earnings report has already sent a signal—demand for AI infrastructure remains strong, and customers’ long-term purchasing commitments continue to increase.
But the real test is still ahead.
If the next round of tech giant earnings proves that:
AI revenue growth > AI spending growth
the market may once again price in the “AI productivity revolution.”
On the other hand, if profits can’t keep up with capital expenditures—
then these currently expensive AI valuations will, for the first time, truly face scrutiny.
And it’s not just about the US stock market.
Once tech-sector risk appetite changes, BTC and the entire crypto market could be repriced as well.
So for this earnings season, I’m only watching one question:
Is AI starting to print money—or still burning it?

BTC has just finished one of its strongest quarters in nearly two years, yet it pulled back repeatedly at the end of the quarter.
In Q3, it rose by more than 40%, and ETF flows returned on a large scale.
But in the last few days:
📉 BTC has been weakening continuously 💰 ETFs are still flowing in, but the pace has clearly cooled 📈 U.S. Treasury yields continue to suppress risk assets 🔥 Yet market sentiment remains high
This is exactly what’s worth being wary of—and what’s worth looking forward to:
Prices are cooling off, but the market hasn’t fully flipped into panic.
The biggest question now isn’t how much Q3 rose.
It’s—
At the start of Q4, will the profit-taking continue, or will a new round of capital take over again?
If BTC can hold steady after the consecutive pullbacks, the market may quickly start trading the “Q4 play.”
If it can’t, the large profits accumulated in Q3 may turn into fresh selling pressure.
