Key takeaways
VIRTUAL’s fleeting rally-more abrupt than coffee at a Soviet checkpoint-has crumbled. Bears, tireless as bureaucrats, are again in command. The funding rates shuffle downward, while volume evaporates like vodka at a farewell party.
The Virtual protocol [VIRTUAL] has endured what officials might call “an unfortunate but necessary adjustment”-in reality, it’s been bludgeoned: 12% off the top, liquidity sprinting for the borders, and a community looking as hopeful as train station pigeons. At this moment, it sits among the sickliest of altcoins, down a resounding 28%, a statistic fit for investigation (and an irrepressible sigh).
Selling persists on all fronts: derivatives and spot, a united chorus of “Nyet!” to price stability. AMBCrypto combs through the trenches for reasons, but some things-like spoon-distribution-remain ineffable.
Investors’ outflow pressures VIRTUAL
The derivatives market, always a hair’s breadth from existential crisis, is thoroughly bearish. The OI-Weighted Funding Rate slumps to -0.0184%, which is so negative even my grandmother would disapprove (and she once survived a winter on turnips alone).
Lowest since late June-which, incidentally, was also a time of suffering for VIRTUAL. Coincidence? Surely not. Predictably unpredictable, as always.
And as if the market’s mood weren’t dour enough, the volume-weighted rate grates its teeth and turns negative too, like a disappointed foreman reviewing factory quotas. Bulls, meanwhile, have left for holiday-destination: anywhere else.
For the true believers in rebound, this is a moment for existential reflection. For everyone else, bearish bets are the only tickets to this matinee of misery.
Spot market adds to the selling pressure
Spot investors join the exodus: $1 million in outflows. Call it a vote of confidence in other coins, or simply fatigue-who’s keeping score? Traders shift allegiances with all the loyalty of party officials at a regime change.
Where does liquidity go? Anywhere but here. Funding rates from central exchanges-Binance leads at 49.1%, Bybit at 28%, OKX at 26.1%-all sliding downhill, like morale after a four-hour queue for shoes. Will the situation improve? Ask the local optimist; he was last seen selling his VIRTUAL.
As outflow accelerates, hopes for a rebound grow slimmer-like the bread rations in February.
VIRTUAL price outlook
Current chart sentiment: neither here nor there. A failed attempt to recapture bullish glory ended at the $1.16 support level. Someone, somewhere, calls this “neutral.” Realists call it “waiting for the next shoe to drop”.
Could it bounce here-a brief uprising? Maybe. Stranger things have happened; a man once won a potato lottery. More likely, though, is another fall through the floor, because beneath $1.16, support vanishes like promises in an election year.
If the support fails, brace yourself for another plunge. And-if you’re lucky-a lesson in what not to invest in next time. At least, as we await the inevitable, there’s always tea. ☕️🪆
