Last night, the funding rate was pushed to an extreme level again, with half the people in the group shouting to take the opposite side, and the other half saying to stay far away. I personally lean towards the latter... To be clear, extreme funding rates ≠ guaranteed profit; they are often the result of "emotion + leverage." If you want to do the opposite, you need to think carefully about whether you can withstand that period of wild fluctuations.

Should I take the opposite side?
My answer: depends on whether I can sleep well with my position.

Additionally, recently, before and after the upgrade/maintenance of that mainstream public chain, everyone has been speculating whether the ecosystem will migrate. I am actually more cautious: when such nodes get tense, slippage, liquidations, and cross-chain issues could all pop up at once. Anyway, I first draw clear risk boundaries—small positions for testing are okay, but don’t go all-in. That’s it for now.
