The real story is that most of these record $ETH shorts are just hedge funds locking in basis trade returns—think ETF inflows and spot holdings driving market-neutral strategies, not coordinated dumps.
Still, there’s heat from a few whales running high-leverage shorts, which can create short-term volatility and spark social chatter about suppression.
Social sentiment is mixed but leans bullish, especially as the market shrugs off shorts and price consolidates above $3k. The technicals? Bullish—ascending triangle, MACD crossovers, and rising OI all suggest strong absorption of hedged positions instead of structural weakness.
If ETH rips higher and resistance cracks, these shorts could fuel a major squeeze—watch whale flows and funding flips for the real pivot. Check the ETH profile for more live signals and deep dives.
