On-chain data shows the Bitcoin funding rates have remained at positive values recently as the crypto’s price has continued its recovery.

Bitcoin Funding Rates Have Been Mostly Positive During The Past Month

As pointed out by an analyst in a CryptoQuant post, the BTC funding rates have been green recently, but not as positive as back between July 18th to 22nd yet.

The “funding rate” is an indicator that measures the periodic fee that perpetual futures contract traders are paying each other.

When the value of this metric is greater than zero, it means long traders are paying a premium to the short traders right now in order to hold onto their positions. Such values indicate that a bullish sentiment is more dominant in the market currently.

On the other hand, negative values of the indicator suggest the number of shorts are overwhelming that of the longs right now. This kind of trend naturally hints that the majority sentiment is bearish at the moment.

Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Bitcoin funding rates over the past couple of months:

As you can see in the above graph, the Bitcoin funding rates have been positive for quite some time now, with a few spikes down into the red region.

This shows that longs have been the more dominant force on the futures market during these last few weeks. This trend makes sense as green funding rates usually follow in periods of climbing prices, while negative rates appear during downtrends as longs get liquidated.

The quant from the post notes that the few red spikes that have been observed recently have turned out to be reliable buying points ever since the crypto first hit $24k again.

The analyst believes Bitcoin could possibly have further room to grow still as while funding rates have been quite positive recently, they are still not as green as between 18-22 July. Back then, the value of BTC hit a local top above $24k.

BTC Price

At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s price floats around $24.2k, up 1% in the last week. Over the past month, the crypto has gained 18% in value.

The below chart shows the trend in the price of the coin over the last five days.

Keshav is currently a senior writer at NewsBTC and has been attached to the website since June 14, 2021.

Keshav has been writing for many years, first as a hobbyist and later as a freelancer. He has experience working in a variety of niches, even fiction at one point, but the cryptocurrency industry has been the longest he has been attached to.

In terms of official educational qualifications, Keshav holds a bachelor’s degree in Physics from one of the premier institutes of India, the University of Delhi (DU). He started the degree with an aim of eventually making a career in Physics, but the onset of COVID led to a shift in plans. The virus meant that the college classes had to be delivered in the online-mode and with it came free time for him to explore other passions.

Initially only seeking to make some beer money, Keshav unexpectedly landed clients offering real projects, after which there was no looking back. Writing was something he had always enjoyed and to be able to do it for a living was like a dream come true.

Keshav completed his Physics degree in 2022 and has been focusing on his writing career since, but that doesn’t mean his passion for Physics has ended. He eventually plans to re-enter university to obtain a masters degree in the same field, but perhaps only to satiate his own interest rather than for using it as a means to find employment..

Keshav has found blockchain and its concepts fascinating ever since he started going down the rabbit-hole back in 2020. On-chain analysis in particular has been something he likes to research more about, which is why his NewsBTC pieces tend to involve it in some form.

Being of the science background, Keshav likes if concepts are clear and consistent, so he generally explains the indicators he talks about in a bit of detail so that the readers can perhaps come out having understood and learnt something new.

As for hobbies, Keshav is super into football, anime, and videogames. He enjoys football not only as a watcher, but also as a player. For games, Keshav generally tends towards enjoying singleplayer adventures, with EA FC (formerly FIFA) being the only online game he is active in. Though, perhaps due to being ultra-focused on the game, he is today a semi-pro on the EA FC scene, regularly participating in tournaments and sometimes even taking back prize money.

Because of his enthusiasm for anime and games, he also self-learned Japanese along the way to consume some of the untranslated gems out there. The skill didn’t merely remain as just a hobby, either, as he put it to productive use during his exploration for small-time gigs at the start of COVID, fulfilling a couple of Japanese-to-English translation jobs.

Keshav is also big into fitness, with agility and acceleration-related workouts making a big part of his program due to the relevance they have in football. On top of that, he also has a more traditional strength based program for the gym, which he does to maintain an overall fitness level of his body.
