Why Might Following a Popular Trend Be More Dangerous When Funding Rates Are High?

In the cryptocurrency market, when a coin continues to rise, discussions on social platforms become increasingly heated, and perpetual contract funding rates keep climbing, many traders may think: Since so many people are bullish, there may still be an opportunity to follow the trend now.

But the more crowded the market gets, the more important it is to pay attention to risk. High funding rates are not a definitive signal that the market is about to reverse, but they may be a reminder that holding costs and ma

$XRP has experienced one of the larger liquidation events in this batch, with approximately $23.9K in long positions liquidated around $1.1621. This highlights aggressive downside pressure on leveraged buyers and puts the nearby demand zone in focus. The market now needs to reclaim lost structure before buyers can establish stronger control.
Support: $1.1500 – $1.1620
Resistance: $1.1800 – $1.2000
Next Target: $1.2200 – $1.2400
If buyers defend support and reclaim $1.20, a recovery toward the next liquidity zone becomes possible. A decisive breakdown below support would increase bearish risk.

The Regulatory “Iron Lady” Is Back! The Crypto Market Faces Another Turning-Point Window

Waters announced her bid to chair the House Financial Services Committee, aiming to strengthen scrutiny of digital assets and advance the Crypto Investor and Consumer Protection Act, with an emphasis on custody, proof of reserves, and customer asset protection. Casten is also running, focusing on crypto, prediction markets, and AI risks. Regulatory uncertainty is rising, $BTC volatility, altcoins, and high-leverage sectors are under pressure, while compliance narratives and privacy coins are diverging.

$BTC Price tapped into the mFVG (75k) and showed a decent reaction,

The upside is completely exposed as we got tons of liquidity sitting above the current highs.

And whenever we see something like this, it usually results in a directional change shortly after (here, upside).

Overall in short, I think we are already bottomed or very close to the local bottom and will start pumping towards 90k soon.

Does Renouncing Admin Privileges Always Make a Project Safer?

In Web3 projects, you may often see claims like these:

“Ownership Renounced.”

“The project team has renounced its admin privileges.”

“Control of the contract has been renounced, and no one can modify it anymore.”

These claims sound appealing because they seem to mean the project team can no longer freely control the contract.

But there is a key question:

Renouncing one admin privilege does not mean all control over the contract has disappeared.

If you see only one on-chain record showing that a privilege was renounced, witho

$ZEC recorded approximately $7.72K in short liquidations around $1,350.57, indicating that bearish positions were forced out during the upward move. This suggests potential bullish pressure, although further continuation requires acceptance above resistance. A successful retest could strengthen the possibility of another liquidity expansion.
Support: $1,325 – $1,340
Resistance: $1,365 – $1,390
Next Target: $1,420
Confirmation: Holding support and breaking resistance could attract additional buying momentum. Failure to hold the demand zone may lead to a deeper retracement.
Let's go $ZEC ‌
