Bullish Momentum Drives OI Surge

看涨势头推动持仓量激增

The recent surge in OI for meme coins is attributed to their bullish momentum over the past few weeks. PEPE's price has appreciated by approximately 120% in the last 30 days, setting a new all-time high. WIF has also reached a multi-week high above $3.30.

最近对 meme 币的 OI 激增归因于过去几周的看涨势头。 PEPE的价格在过去30天内上涨了约120%，创下了历史新高。 WIF 也达到了 3.30 美元以上的多周高点。

Funding Rates Remain Negative Despite OI Growth

尽管 OI 增长，资金利率仍为负

Despite the price and OI surge for meme coins, funding rates have remained negative across crypto exchanges. Funding rates reflect the cost of holding a position in a perpetual swap or futures contract relative to the asset's spot price. Positive funding rates indicate bullish market sentiment, while negative rates suggest bearish sentiment.

尽管 meme 币的价格和 OI 飙升，但整个加密货币交易所的融资利率仍然为负。资金费率反映了相对于资产现货价格持有永续掉期或期货合约头寸的成本。正的融资利率表明市场情绪看涨，而负利率则表明市场情绪看跌。
