Will The Rising Bullish Sentiment Sustain The Rally?<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

According to market intelligence platform IntoTheBlock<\/a>, the Bitcoin funding rates have witnessed a notable upswing in recent days.

When the funding rate is high or positive, it implies that the long traders are paying traders with short positions. Typically, this direction of the periodic payment suggests a strong bullish sentiment in the market.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

On the other hand, a negative value of the funding rate metric means that investors with short positions are paying traders with buy positions in the derivatives market. This trend suggests that the market is shrouded by a bearish sentiment.<\/span><\/p>\n

Data from IntoTheBlock shows that the Bitcoin funding fees for perpetual swaps have increased by more than 10% \u2014 and up to 20% on major trading platforms. However, the on-chain firm noted that this continuous funding rate growth could hint at speculative overheating, potentially resulting in market corrections.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to IntoTheBlock, one of the possible catalysts of this bullish sentiment is the United States government’s approach to crypto under Donald Trump.

In a recent post on the X platform, Glassnode revealed<\/a> that the Bitcoin perpetual futures market \u201cremains restrained.\u201d This suggests that several traders are still approaching the market with caution despite the steady price climb of BTC in recent weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Data from Glassnode shows that the Bitcoin funding rates are just above 0.01%, which falls short of the March 2024 level (~0.07%) when the BTC price reached a local top. Ultimately, this suggests that there is still room for growth in the value of the premier cryptocurrency.<\/span><\/p>\n

While the digital asset industry was not his first choice, he has remained absolutely drawn since making a foray into the space over two years. Now, Opeyemi takes pride in creating unique pieces unraveling the complexities of blockchain technology and sharing insights on the latest trends in the world of cryptocurrencies. Opeyemi savors his attraction to the crypto market, which explains why he spends the better parts of his day looking through different price charts. \u201cLooking\u201d is a rather simple way to describe analyzing and interpreting various price patterns and chart formations. However, it appears that is not Opeyemi\u2019s favorite part - in fact, far from it. Being able to connect what happens on a price chart to on-chain movements and blockchain activities is what keeps Opeyemi ticking. \u201cThis emphasizes the intricacies of blockchain technology and the cryptocurrency market,\u201d he would say. Most importantly, Opeyemi thinks of any market insights as the gospel, while recognizing that he is only a messenger. When he is not clicking away at his keyboard, Opeyemi is most definitely listening to music, playing games, reading a book, or scrolling through X. He likes to think he is not loyal to a particular genre of music, which can be true on many days. However, the fast-rising Afrobeats genre is a staple in Opeyemi\u2019s Spotify Daily Mix. Meanwhile, Opeyemi is a voracious reader who enjoys a wide category of books - ranging from science fiction, fantasy, and historical, to even romance. He believes that authors like George R. R. Martin and J. K. Rowling are the greatest of all time when it comes to putting pen to paper. Opeyemi believes his reading of the Harry Potter series twice is proof of that. Indeed, Opeyemi enjoys spending most of his time within the four walls of his home. However, he also sometimes finds solace in the company of his friends at a bar, a restaurant, or even on a stroll. In essence, Opeyemi\u2019s ambivert (haha! been searching for an opportunity to use the word to describe myself) nature makes him a social chameleon who is able to quickly adapt to different settings. Opeyemi recognizes the need to constantly develop oneself in order to stay afloat in a competitive and ever-evolving market like crypto. For this reason, he is always in learning mode, ready to pick up the slightest lesson from every situation. Opeyemi is efficient and likes to deliver all that is required of him in time - he believes that \u201cwhatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well.\u201d Hence, you will always find him striving to be better. Ultimately, Opeyemi is a good writer and an even better person who is trying to shed light on an exciting world phenomenon - cryptocurrency. He goes to bed every day with a smile of satisfaction on his face, knowing that he has done his bit of the holy assignment - spreading the crypto gospel to the rest of the world.\",\"sameAs\":[\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/opeyemi-sule-027bb5227\",\"https:\/\/x.com\/https:\/\/twitter.com\/fwOpeyemi\"],\"url\":\"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/author\/oluwatosino\/\"}]}<\/script>\n","yoast_head_json":{"title":"Bitcoin

He likes to think he is not loyal to a particular genre of music, which can be true on many days. However, the fast-rising Afrobeats genre is a staple in Opeyemi\u2019s Spotify Daily Mix. Meanwhile, Opeyemi is a voracious reader who enjoys a wide category of books - ranging from science fiction, fantasy, and historical, to even romance. He believes that authors like George R. R. Martin and J. K. Rowling are the greatest of all time when it comes to putting pen to paper. Opeyemi believes his reading of the Harry Potter series twice is proof of that. Indeed, Opeyemi enjoys spending most of his time within the four walls of his home. However, he also sometimes finds solace in the company of his friends at a bar, a restaurant, or even on a stroll. In essence, Opeyemi\u2019s ambivert (haha! been searching for an opportunity to use the word to describe myself) nature makes him a social chameleon who is able to quickly adapt to different settings. Opeyemi recognizes the need to constantly develop oneself in order to stay afloat in a competitive and ever-evolving market like crypto. For this reason, he is always in learning mode, ready to pick up the slightest lesson from every situation. Opeyemi is efficient and likes to deliver all that is required of him in time - he believes that \u201cwhatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well.\u201d Hence, you will always find him striving to be better. Ultimately, Opeyemi is a good writer and an even better person who is trying to shed light on an exciting world phenomenon - cryptocurrency. He goes to bed every day with a smile of satisfaction on his face, knowing that he has done his bit of the holy assignment - spreading the crypto gospel to the rest of the world.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/opeyemi-sule-027bb5227","https:\/\/x.com\/https:\/\/twitter.com\/fwOpeyemi"],"url":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/author\/oluwatosino\/"}]}},"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Bitcoin Funding Rates Surge 20% On Major Exchanges \u2014 What\u2019s Happening?","url":"http:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/bitcoin\/bitcoin-funding-rates-surge-20-on-major-exchanges-whats-happening\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/bitcoin\/bitcoin-funding-rates-surge-20-on-major-exchanges-whats-happening\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/iStock-889246630-1.jpg?resize=200%2C200","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/iStock-889246630-1.jpg?fit=1254%2C836"},"articleSection":"Bitcoin","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Opeyemi Sule"}],"creator":["Opeyemi Sule"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"NewsBTC","logo":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32"},"keywords":["bitcoin","bitcoin price","btc","btc price","btcusdt","intotheblock"],"dateCreated":"2024-11-23T19:00:20Z","datePublished":"2024-11-23T19:00:20Z","dateModified":"2024-11-23T19:00:20Z"},"rendered":"<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"headline\":\"Bitcoin Funding Rates Surge 20% On Major Exchanges \\u2014 What\\u2019s Happening?\",\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/uniquehot.com\\\/news\\\/bitcoin\\\/bitcoin-funding-rates-surge-20-on-major-exchanges-whats-happening\\\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"http:\\\/\\\/uniquehot.com\\\/news\\\/bitcoin\\\/bitcoin-funding-rates-surge-20-on-major-exchanges-whats-happening\\\/\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/uniquehot.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2024\\\/08\\\/iStock-889246630-1.jpg?resize=200%2C200\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/uniquehot.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2024\\\/08\\\/iStock-889246630-1.jpg?fit=1254%2C836\"},\"articleSection\":\"Bitcoin\",\"author\":[{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Opeyemi Sule\"}],\"creator\":[\"Opeyemi Sule\"],\"publisher\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"NewsBTC\",\"logo\":\"https:\\\/\\\/uniquehot.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2020\\\/06\\\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32\"},\"keywords\":[\"bitcoin\",\"bitcoin price\",\"btc\",\"btc price\",\"btcusdt\",\"intotheblock\"],\"dateCreated\":\"2024-11-23T19:00:20Z\",\"datePublished\":\"2024-11-23T19:00:20Z\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-11-23T19:00:20Z\"}<\/script>","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/uniquehot.com\/p.js"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/iStock-889246630-1.jpg?fit=1254%2C836","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/654532","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/590"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=654532"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/654532\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":654537,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/654532\/revisions\/654537"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/637562"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=654532"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=654532"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=654532"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
