The current price rebound has not yet led to a comprehensive recovery in the funding rates, indicating a lack of willingness from derivatives traders to long.

BlockBeats Note: Funding rates are rates set by cryptocurrency exchanges to keep the perpetual contract price balanced with the underlying asset price. It is a mechanism for fund exchange between long and short traders, and the trading platform does not charge this fee. A funding rate of 0.01% indicates the baseline rate; above 0.01% represents a generally bullish market sentiment, while below 0.005% represents a generally bearish market sentiment.
