Bitcoin has gained roughly 10% through 2026 so far. What's interesting is the on-chain picture—spot demand is picking up while perpetual funding rates stay negative. That disconnect between spot buying interest and shorts/longs being paid to hold positions? It's worth watching. Could signal real accumulation happening underneath the surface.

Hmm... Spot buy orders are increasing, but the funding rate is still negative. That's quite interesting.

Haha, this negative funding rate thing is really interesting... It looks like someone is accumulating at low prices, waiting for the rebound moment.

Spot is eating up the orders, and the shorts are still collecting interest? This feels a bit off, like there's really some quiet accumulation happening underneath.

Spot buy orders are quietly accumulating, and futures funding rates are still negative? That's suspicious... It feels like someone is quietly accumulating.

Spot buy orders are bottoming out, while the bears are still harvesting profits. This is unbelievable... Has the bottom accumulation really arrived?

On-chain looks quite comfortable, spot trading is absorbing, and funding rates are still paying out? Such a mismatch... the real chips are quietly changing hands, and the surfing entry points are right in front of you.

The spot cats bottoming out are accumulating in the shadows, and the funding rate is still negative. This price difference will eventually be corrected... Nap warning is coming.
