Funds first flow into the ticket elasticity, $BTW directly jumps to +104.3%.
It's not just a simple increase; open interest (OI) surges by 755%, with a trading volume of $104 million, clearly not a situation with no volume pulse.
$HOME +41.5%.
The most interesting part here is that negative funding rates are still expanding, with shorts paying hard to -0.242%, while OI has increased by 56.5%.
As the price moves upward, shorts haven't withdrawn, and this kind of structure becomes more prone to squeezing out volatility over time.
$OPN +25.6%.
Trading volume is $656 million, the largest among the top 3.
OI has also increased by 43.4%, but taker activity is nearly neutral, indicating it's not a one-sided sentiment crushing, but rather funds re-pricing in high turnover.
Looking at the downside, QNTX.
QNTX -38.0%, but the funding rate is as high as +0.967%, and OI has increased by 90.5%, showing a strong long crowding sense.
This isn't an ordinary decline; it looks more like long positions are being squeezed, with a very obvious long squeeze signal.
Top 4-10, a quick glance: Lobster +24.2%, EPIC +24.0%, SIREN +22.8%, HEI +20.8%, DEXE +17.0%, B +14.6%, FORM +13.9%.
Overall, it's a group of high-volatility small coins, focusing on three key points: whether $BTW 's OI will continue to expand, whether $HOME 's negative funding rate will recover, and whether $OPN 's large trading volume can be maintained.
