Stayed up again until 3 a.m. to review and recap. This funding rate is so extremely skewed that it’s honestly a bit ridiculous—long/short positioning is directly tipping heavily to one side. To be blunt, I’m actually afraid to blindly bottom-fish or chase shorts right now. When it’s like this, going against the other side is too easy to get slapped back and forth. Better to shrink back and ride out the volatility first, then act once emotions have cooled. Anyway, I don’t have the luck to catch every single spike.

Also, let’s talk about privacy coins. Lately, the community has been arguing fiercely, and the compliance boundaries are getting increasingly blurry. Personally, I think mixing/obfuscation protocols carry too much risk in the short term—if things go wrong, you might end up crossing a red line. Better to watch from the sidelines for now. Being cautious is never wrong, especially when funding rates are extreme—don’t let emotions take over your judgment. That’s it for now—wake up and check the charts again.
