Prices are rising, open interest is also increasing, but funding rates have not aligned uniformly.

Side A is the strong performers consolidating with increased volume, Side B is some shorts still paying fees to hold their positions, the real focus is not just the percentage increase, but whose positions are changing most abnormally.
$OPN +67.8%.
The core of this wave is not the first in percentage gain, but the open interest has surged by 275.5%, indicating this is not an ordinary pulse, but a flood of new positions coming in.
Trading volume reached $611 million, the volume is also strong, and the order book has entered a high-volatility crowded zone.
$SIREN +26.6%.
Funding rate has dropped to -0.085%, short sellers are paying very extreme fees, but the price is still moving upward.
Open interest has increased by 46.1% simultaneously, this kind of structure makes a short squeeze more likely over time because shorts are not exiting but continuing to hold.
$MAGMA +26.3%.
Both the price increase and trading volume are strong, with $191 million in transactions and a 99.9% increase in open interest, more like capital suddenly flowing in.
Taker bias is bullish, the order book shows active buying on the buy side, but the long-short ratio is only 0.61, indicating the chasing of the rally is not fully widespread.
Brief mention of Top 4-10.
SKYAI +23.9%, HEI +22.1%, EPIC +18.6%, BEAT +15.3%, JCT +14.9%, Lobster +14.7%, WLD +11.6%.
On the decline side, SLX -33.9%, PORTAL -30.3%, MYX -27.3%, all showing a clear drop in open interest, the weakness is not just a price decline but also a withdrawal of positions.
Overall, today is not a broad rally across the board, but capital is concentrating in a few names with volume and position changes.
OPN looks for continuation, SIREN for short squeeze pressure, MAGMA for whether new positions can sustain the volatility.
