The $RUNE smart money isn’t moving in waves — it’s crawling through the dark zones beneath 0.243. That’s where the real liquidity is buried, not on the surface charts you see every morning.

I’ve seen stop hunts fire at 0.2418 and 0.2425 before. Every time, the market bounces back — but only because a few whales are quietly pushing the price down to trigger those stops. Then they pull back. Not for momentum. For control.

Funding rates have been negative since Friday. That means traders aren’t borrowing against positions. They’re not betting on volatility. They’re holding tight, waiting for a clean sweep through the 0.243 level — where liquidity is thinnest and stops are most likely to catch.

This isn’t a breakout. It’s a deep cut. And right now, $RUNE is being shaped by those who don’t want to be seen. They’re not fighting the market — they’re building it from below.
