ETH pumped nearly 4 points, while BTC only followed up by 1.3%—who's leading the charge is crystal clear.
BTC moved from 61150 to 62700, and on the surface, bulls seem to be riding high, but a closer look at the data reveals a less optimistic picture. The 24-hour trading volume is at 13.85B, which is significantly lower than the last rebound, a classic case of a volume squeeze. Funding rate is at 0.0033%, indicating that neither side has much conviction, and no one dares to go all-in.
ETH, on the other hand, is showing strength with a +3.8% lead, but the funding rate at -0.0064% exposes a truth: shorts are continuously paying up. What does this mean? This ETH surge isn't a result of bulls aggressively pushing forward; it's shorts being forced to cover. How far can this short squeeze go? Look at the 24h high of 1721, just a bit over 30 bucks away from resistance R1 at 1753—pressure points are right in front of us.
Here are a few signals worth noting:
① ETH leading while BTC follows—historical experience tells us this structure usually appears in the later stages of a rebound, not at the start of a trend.
② The 24h high of BTC at 64250 is the intraday ceiling; it touched that level this morning and then pulled back, indicating that selling pressure is more than just talk.
③ BNB's trading volume is only 0.46B, which isn't even enough to consider it a player in this game; all the available funds are going to ETH.
Directional analysis: short-term data leans bearish.
If BTC can't hold the pivot point at 62750, the next stop looks like a buying opportunity at 61254. That morning pump from 61150 did show some support at the bottom, but a rebound without volume is just burning through the bulls' ammo. Keep an eye on the 64250 level this afternoon—if it can't break through, it signals a return of the bears to take control.
The short squeeze for ETH isn't over yet, but don't let the gains fool you. It jumped nearly 130 bucks from 1592 to 1721, and those who chased in may find themselves learning a lesson around 1753. A negative funding rate lasting over three days is what really indicates that the shorts can't hold out anymore; we're just at the beginning of that.
