Sol's perpetual trading is insanely hot, surpassing the total of previous years? Are you sure you haven't double-counted? Is it time to bottom fish? These numbers look a bit suspicious. 451.2 billion... Can't quite imagine it, but it doesn't really concern me much. Perpetual contracts, for retail investors, are just money in, while institutions eat the meat and we drink the soup. The Solana ecosystem is indeed taking off, but who knows when the next black swan will come. How long can this trading volume last? It feels a bit fake. Is human money really coming in like this? Perpetual trading is incredible. Another peak in data, and then what? History always repeats itself. I feel like this is just paving the way for big funds to escape the top.

The Sol ecosystem is really booming, but the trading volume of this wave of perpetual contracts is so terrifying... be careful not to get liquidated.
