The current mainstream CEX and DEX funding rate display shows that the market has returned to neutrality.

2 days ago

On April 6th, based on Coinglass data, the current funding rates of mainstream CEX and DEX indicate that the cryptocurrency market has returned to a neutral state. It is no longer overwhelmingly bearish but also not bullish. The specific funding rates for mainstream coins are shown 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.

Bernstein: Bitcoin Shows Strong Resilience

On April 8th, Bernstein remarked that Bitcoin had declined by 26% during the recent market unrest. When compared to past crashes ranging from 50% to 70%, this is regarded as mild, suggesting stronger demand. Market tariffs have had an impact on crypto miners; however, U.S. alternatives and AI opportunities have offered support. Bitcoin still fluctuates in a manner similar to a tech stock rather than gold, but it serves as a liquid risk asset when markets are closed. In the long term, it is a more volatile and liquid version of gold (with a market capitalization of approximately $2 trillion compared to gold's $20 trillion). Institutional adoption through ETFs and corporate treasuries (accounting for 10% of the supply) has made Bitcoin more stable. Despite a 15% decrease year-to-date, ETF inflows remain positive. The main source of selling pressure comes from short-term traders, while miners remain strong with AI trading and low leverage.
