PANews reported on January 22 that Matrixport's perpetual contract funding rate has rebounded significantly recently, rising from the single-digit level in mid-January to double digits. This trend shows that market speculation has picked up, traders' confidence has increased, and they are willing to pay higher funding rates to increase leverage.

Previously, the funding rate reached a high in November last year, and then the market entered a correction phase, with the funding rate falling and accompanied by the liquidation of high-leverage long positions. The current rebound in funding rates is seen as a positive signal that may push the bull market into the next stage. Generally speaking, the increase in funding rates is closely related to the improvement of market sentiment and the increase in trading activity.
