Bitcoin perpetual funding just hit a level we havenât seen in 20 months.
That doesnât automatically mean BTC has topped.
But it does tell me one thing: leverage is getting crowded.
When traders become heavily positioned on the same side, price doesnât need a huge catalyst to move violently. A small pullback can start liquidations, liquidations can accelerate selling, and suddenly a âhealthyâ uptrend turns into a brutal flush.
The interesting part isnât simply the funding number.
Itâs what BTC does next.
If price keeps grinding higher while funding cools down, that could signal the market is absorbing leverage.
But if funding stays extremely elevated while price starts losing key support, Iâd be watching closely for a leverage reset.
đ„ Bullish trend + controlled funding = healthier setup.
â ïž Bullish trend + extreme funding = crowded trade.
The market can stay irrational longer than traders expect⊠but leverage eventually has to be paid for.
BTC doesnât need to crash. It just needs enough volatility to punish the crowded side.
