$LAB This market maker indeed has strength, it feels less like simply pumping the market and more like setting a big picture.

Funding rates have been consistently positive, attracting arbitrage funds to do "spot buying + contract shorting" to earn the rate, while continuing to push up the price and wipe out retail traders who short at high levels.

But don’t forget, $LAB has already increased by dozens of times, and trading volume has long been among the top, so the market maker’s costs are not low.

Market makers are not doing charity; the money spent earlier will most likely be recovered later with interest and principal.

In this kind of hot market, the crazier it gets, the more careful you need to be about the final blow.
