The current mainstream CEX and DEX funding rate indicates that the market is no longer universally bearish.
On April 22nd, based on Coinglass data, the current mainstream CEX and DEX funding rates suggest that the market is no longer mainly bearish, nor is it bullish. The specific funding rates for major coins are presented in the attached image.
BlockBeats Note: The funding rate is a fee set by cryptocurrency exchanges to maintain the balance between the contract price and the underlying asset price. It is usually applicable to perpetual contracts and is a mechanism for the exchange of funds between long and short traders. The trading platform does not charge this fee. It is used to adjust the cost or profit of traders holding contracts to keep the contract price close to the underlying asset price.
When the funding rate is 0.01%, it represents the baseline rate. When the funding rate is greater than 0.01%, it indicates a generally bullish market. When the funding rate is less than 0.005%, it indicates a generally bearish market.

Citigroup: The Fed May Cut Rates Up to 5 Times This Year
On Monday, April 22nd, Citibank predicted that by June, the U.S. economy will clearly show signs of weakness, which will prompt the Fed to cut interest rates for the first time this year, possibly up to five times.
Citibank's economists stated that Fed officials will pay more attention to the health of the economy and the labor market rather than inflation.
Citibank wrote: "We expect that a series of data will make Fed officials more dovish before June. This leads us to believe that the risk is inclined towards a faster and/or larger rate cut."
Currently, Citibank stated that by the end of 2025, the key federal funds rate is expected to decrease from the current range of 4.25% to 4.5% to a range of 3% to 3.25% (FXStreet).
