WIF: Pessimistic market sentiment
Equally, according to Santiment, WIF has continuously reported a declining open interest in USD per exchange. At press time, the Open Interest was $135 M, a reduction from $180M on the 10th of June.
Declining Open Interest showed declining interest in WIF, as traders were avoiding new positions. This indicated that traders were indifferent and lacking confidence in the current trend, thus closing their positions.
Traders, in this sense, were closing long positions and not opening new short positions, resulting in the price decline.

Based on Coinglass data, WIF’s volume-weighted Funding Rate has been in continuous decline. From the 15th of June, volume-weighted Funding Rate has been in free fall, slightly dipping into negative territory.

WIF was reporting a lower Funding Rate as investors were uncertain about the trend and were thus failing to open new positions. If the negative market sentiment continues, WIF prices will fall to $1.79.
In a bullish scenario and pattern reversal, WIF will attempt to reach $4.06 with a new support level of around $2.3.
