Binance scoops up $596K ONDO, but bearish sentiment remains: What now?

Share this article

  • Binance recently purchased over $596,000 worth of ONDO, showing growing interest.
  • However, this move has not swayed broader market behavior, as many participants continued selling.

Ondo Finance [ONDO] maintained its bullish sentiment at press time, gaining 46.43% over the past month and posting a 1.69% increase in the last 24 hours.

However, a divergence between recent price gains and weakening interest suggested that a potential trend reversal could be on the horizon.

AMBCrypto provided deeper insights into ONDO’s current performance and what investors should anticipate next.

Binance accumulates ONDO

Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by market capitalization, has recently accumulated $596,415.56 worth of ONDO, equivalent to 174.22 ETH, over the past five days.

These transactions were conducted through Binance’s hot and cold wallets in two separate transfers, bringing its total ONDO holdings to 571,827 tokens.

Such large-scale acquisitions often hint at growing institutional interest, suggesting that major players may be positioning themselves for a potential rally.

However, a closer look reveals a stark contrast: while institutions are accumulating, derivative traders are actively selling, signaling a potential divergence in market sentiment.

Divergence amid ONDO accumulation

At the time of writing, bearish sentiment was developing, diverging from the bullish undertone set by large-scale accumulation.

The OI-Weighted Funding Rate, which adjusts the Funding Rate by Open Interest (OI), provides a clearer view of market sentiment.

A positive rate suggests a bullish market with dominant longs, while a negative rate reflects a bearish market led by shorts.

At press time, ONDO’s Funding Rate appeared to be steadily declining, and has entered the negative region, with a reading of 0.0251%, showing growing bearish pressure.

Long liquidation data revealed that the market looked unfavorable for long traders who aligned with the accumulation trends of larger investors.

A total of $538,610 worth of long positions has been forcefully liquidated, indicating that downward momentum may continue to steer ONDO’s price lower.

Increase in short contracts

With long positions being liquidated and market sentiment shifting toward bearish, AMBCrypto has observed a significant increase in short contracts.

According to Coinglass, the press time long-to-short ratio was below 1 at 0.8734, indicating a higher number of short contracts. This suggested a market tilt in favor of shorts.

If the trend of opening more short contracts continues, it could further drive down ONDO’s price, delaying any potential rally and pushing the asset further from its current level.
