$LAYER The top spot has changed hands, accelerating the short squeeze
30 minutes ago, the leader was still LAB
Now LAYER has risen 53.74% to take the top spot
The top spot isn't continuing to rise, it's a change of tactics
The biggest anomaly is the fee rate
From +0.062% to -2.0%
Indicating that shorts are forced to pay up to hold their positions
Open Interest (OI) has also exploded
In 24 hours, from +52% to +333.5%
In 1 hour, from -3% to +60.7%
Indicating new positions are rushing in
Two points as counter-evidence:
The fee rate returning to positive, OI starting to decline
Falling back below 0.1419, the situation starts to change
$LAYER Is this a short squeeze or a trap?
