$LA is only 27.5 million, yet trading volume is 11 million
I just finished scanning the order book, and something feels off.
Current price: 0.06724, down 2.1% over 24h. But open interest? Up 26.7%. 3.3M > 3.8M > 4.0M > 4.1M—building steadily.
Real money is still piling in while the price falls. This isn’t a low-volume bleed.
Funding went from -0.0413% to -0.0419%, getting more negative. Shorts have the upper hand, but the cost of holding short positions is rising—they think they’re winning, but they’re paying for it every second.
Longs think they’re winning too: negative funding means they get paid to hold. But the price is falling, positions are growing, and costs are rising. Who’s carrying whom?
10 media stories are tracking it, while its market cap is just $27.5M. A small pool, large positions, and active spot trading.
Bottom line: First see whether funding keeps falling, then see whether OI keeps rising. Until the direction is confirmed, leverage is just a switch in someone else’s hands.
Risk warning: Negative funding doesn’t mean the price has bottomed. The costs always bite back, regardless of whether you’ve picked the right direction.
