What does the KAITO data show?
1. KAITO closed at a 180-day high
KAITO closed at $1.002, the highest close in 180 days, clearing the previous peak by 6.76%. A fresh extreme means every holder from that window is now in profit — which changes who is likely to sell into the next move.
2. Whale positioning is close to balanced
52% of active large-wallet money on KAITO is positioned long right now: $1.9 M long against $1.8 M short, spread over 59 wallets on Hyperliquid. With the book close to even, whale positioning is not telling you much here — the useful reads are the chart and the derivatives below. These are open positions read from the chain, not opinions, and they change daily.
3. Open interest jumped 60.63%
Perpetual funding runs at 10.95% annualised, so longs are paying shorts to keep their positions open. Funding is a crowding tax: the more one-sided the book, the more it costs to stay on that side, and the more likely the weakest hands there get squeezed out. Open interest stands at $4.1 M, up 60.63% on the move — that is the size of the leveraged book that has to be closed eventually.
