Market sentiment screams bearish on majors right now. Check the short-to-long ratios – it's brutal out there.



BTC traders lean heavy into shorts: $131M vs just $70M longs. ETH follows the same pattern at $110M/$58M. SOL? Even worse bias at $34M/$13M.

But XRP takes the crown for most lopsided positioning. We're talking $15M in shorts against a measly $0.6M in longs. That's a 25:1 ratio. Practically zero bullish conviction.

When positioning gets this extreme, things can snap fast either way. Worth watching if you're trading these coins.
BTC-1.11%
ETH-0.01%
SOL-0.96%
XRP-0.24%

The proportion of XRP is ridiculous; it feels like someone is about to get liquidated.

*adjusts alchemical instruments* that xrp positioning is absolutely unhinged... 25:1 shorts against basically nothing? either the most beautiful liquidation trap ever forged or we're witnessing pure transmutation of leverage into dust

Looking at this data reminds me of 2018... The moments of extreme pessimism are often when opportunities are born. The proportion for XRP is really outrageous, but it's precisely these extreme positions that are the easiest to reverse. It's exactly this kind of test that a phoenix needs to be reborn from the ashes.

This ratio for XRP is really outrageous, 25:1? The short positions are so crazy that it's actually making me a bit nervous.

The 25:1 short ratio on XRP... that's really scary. Is it a sign of a massive short squeeze coming?

The data shows that short positions are indeed extreme, especially for XRP with that 25:1 ratio... However, such an extreme level of imbalance can easily trigger a short squeeze in the opposite direction. Historical lows often appear at these moments of despair, so let's wait and see.
