Shorts are paying longs on $AVAX at -0.0074% per 8h, and funding is negative on exactly eight of the eleven majors. When that much of the book flips, the money is not scrambling for the exit. What makes this one worth watching is who is on the other side. The retail crowd sits 64.1% long on AVAX. The top accounts sit 69.8%. Big money is leaning harder into the long than the crowd is, and only three of the eleven majors look like that right now. Open interest is $101.5M and climbing, up 3.37% in the last hour. That is fresh size landing, not old positions getting marked down. So the fee flow runs from short sellers straight into the pockets of every long, all while the broader market prints red. That is who is paying whom.

Retail is 69.1% long on $BNB perps while the top traders sit at 56.1% long, a 13.0pt gap that puts BNB among only two majors where the crowd leans harder than the big accounts. Ether is the other one at +15.6pt. Across the other nine majors the top traders are the more bullish side, and funding is negative on 8 of 11, so shorts are already paying longs just to hold. BNB open interest sits at $411.7M, down 1.14% over the last hour, which means this is a crowded book, not a fresh one. The book leans long, the big accounts stepped back, and the next squeeze usually pays whoever leaned in first.

Bitcoin option open interest is 36.7% puts against 63.3% calls. More contracts are positioned for upside than downside, and that is a bet on direction rather than a hedge. $OP

The Fear and Greed index moved from 61 to 69 in a day, landing in greed territory. A jump that size in 24 hours is sentiment catching up to price, not leading it. $BTC
