Odaily Planet Daily News Matrixport released today's chart stating that in the past two weeks, Bitcoin open interest has increased significantly by $6 billion, and the annualized funding rate has surged to 19%, indicating a large number of aggressive leveraged long positions in the market. Meanwhile, retail trading activity in South Korea has risen significantly, with cryptocurrency trading volume jumping from $1 billion to $6 billion, reflecting the dominant role of retail funds in this round of market activity. However, as prices enter a consolidation phase, these high-leverage long positions may face risks of forced liquidation, especially after next week's FOMC meeting when the market will enter a relatively quiet August trading period. Although there may be short-term volatility pressure, multiple key positive factors are accumulating for after the summer, and the overall upward trend in the crypto market has not yet ended.
