Ethereum leverage crashes 91%, yet ETH price holds firm - Heres why

As Ethereum [ETH] advanced toward $2500, traders went all-in, adding massive amounts of leverage on both Binance and Bybit.　　The combined Open Interest (OI) on these two exchanges grew by $1.12 billion over the seven days ending on the 22nd of August, after traders began to chase Ethereums breakout.　　Recently, that momentum has dramatically fallen off. As of the 30th of August, the leverage collapsed 90.9% to just $102 million. Binance fell from $843 million to $94 million, while Bybit plunged from $277 million to $8 million.　　Source: CryptoQuant　　However, ETH is still trading near $2500, even though derivatives are being added by much smaller margins. In other words, this means that the rally is now relying less on rapid expansion of derivatives in order to continue supporting the price.　　Discover more　　FINANCE　　News　　Currencies & Foreign Exchange　　Ultimately, if Ethereum holds $2500 while leverage decreases, then this would likely indicate a rally based on growing demand.　　With leveraged trading cooling, Ethereums support is increasingly coming from spot ETFs.　　The volume of ETH being bought by institutions through spot ETFs has grown with each session since the 15th of August. Since then, U.S.-based Ethereum ETFs have had approximately $1.5 billion in investment over 10 days.　　Source: Farside　　Over this same period BlackRocks ETHA

Tom Lee Says September Crash Fear Could Trigger a Stock Rally, Push Bitcoin 2x

Fundstrat‘s Tom Lee is treating September’s crash fear as a contrarian signal. He says a market this braced for weakness could rally instead, carrying Bitcoin (BTC) toward $150,000.　　Lee has not dropped his correction call. He has moved it, pointing to the September 15 Federal Reserve (Fed) meeting as the moment that decides direction.　　The September Fear Lee Is Betting Against　　The fear has an evidence base, because across 10 US midterm election years since 1986, the average stock market low landed on September 2.　　Those lows followed an average slide of 16.77% from the prior high. That history is what makes the current dangerous September pattern worth watching.　　This year adds a hawkish twist. Three Fed presidents voted for a rate hike in July, not a cut. Chair Kevin Warsh then used his first Jackson Hole speech to put inflation first. Six-month PCE inflation was running at 4.1%.　　Bonds tell the same story, with the 30-year Treasury yield has held above 5%, well clear of an effective fed funds rate near 3.63%.　　US Treasuries and Bitcoin Price Performance.

Kalshi bans George Santos for $17,839 market manipulation

Kalshi has permanently banned former U.S. Representative George Santos and imposed a $71,356 penalty after finding that he manipulated an attendance market to earn $17,839.57.　　Kalshi‘s Aug. 28 disciplinary notice said Santos placed large trades between Feb. 2 and Feb. 25 in contracts that paid according to whether he attended President Donald Trump’s 2026 State of the Union address.　　Kalshi says Santos traded an outcome he could control　　As the person whose attendance determined the contracts result, Santos had direct influence over the event.

These 2 Bitcoin Derivatives Signals Could Trigger a Long Squeeze: Analyst

Bitcoin could face forced selling if leveraged longs return and BTC subsequently loses key support levels.　　Bitcoins derivatives market is showing a curious split, with open interest falling nearly 4% since August 21, while funding costs for long positions have risen quickly.　　Analyst Axel Adler Jr. says that combination could leave BTC exposed to a long squeeze if traders start rebuilding leverage while maintaining an increasingly bullish bias.　　Falling OI Meets Rising Funding　　In Adler‘s latest brief, he put the focus on what is happening beneath Bitcoin’s price, with BTC-denominated open interest falling from 331,100 BTC on August 21 to 318,600 BTC on August 31, a decline of 3.8%. Over the past 24 hours, another 2,850 BTC has left open positions.　　That means the derivatives market is still in a deleveraging phase following the short squeeze. But traders have not rushed to rebuild the amount of leverage that was cleared out during the earlier move.　　Meanwhile, funding tells a different story, with the current funding rate at 0.00906%, while the eight-hour average sits at 0.00821% and the 24-hour average at 0.00725%. The shorter-term average is already 13% above the 24-hour figure, pointing to a stronger preference for long positions among active traders.　　“The shorts have already been
