Shorts are so crowded they have to pay to stay in their positions. If I don't take the other side of this, who will? I'm betting on CYBER longs.

Funding rate: -0.42%, annualized: -463%. Shorts are lining up to pay to short this—not because bears are strong, but because the short side is at an extreme level of crowding. The Fear & Greed Index is only 28; everyone's scared, yet positions are overwhelmingly short. Sentiment and positioning are completely out of sync. Looking at the chart: the 1h high fell from 0.356 to 0.293, leaving 0.8X; on the 4h, price rallied from 0.23 to 0.41, and that 1.8X move is still intact—the price has merely pulled back from its high, not broken down. On the weekly chart, it's down from 0.479 to 0.6X; anyone who needed to get out has already left. Over on AIOT, open interest surged 80.7% in 24 hours. Leverage-driven sentiment is heating up ahead of price, and the tension is already building. Any spark—a bullish candle, a large order—and shorts will have to stampede to cover.

$CYBER If it breaks below 0.279, I give up on this squeeze thesis and I'm out; if it holds, a reverse squeeze could ignite at any moment.

Bears, feel free to add above 0.279. I'll be right here waiting for your stop-loss orders.#加密市场 #AltcoinSeason
