According to The Block, Glassnode data shows that Bitcoin whales on Hyperliquid have pushed net long positions to a new high for 2026.
Glassnode pointed out on the X platform that in recent weeks, whales have continuously increased their cumulative long positions, continuing the trend of going long that began during last month’s BTC price breakout. Hyperliquid, as the largest on-chain perpetual contract exchange, often sees whale activity used as a sentiment indicator, with the total whale positions on the platform amounting to approximately $3.5 billion, with longs slightly outpacing shorts. Most liquidations in the past month have concentrated on short positions. On Wednesday, Bitcoin briefly broke through $82,000, reaching a three-month high.
Bitcoin has maintained a negative 30-day average funding rate for 67 consecutive days, the longest record in ten years, with some analysts believing this may indicate a market bottom. However, the long-short ratio on Binance is currently about 0.53, below 1, indicating that most accounts still hold a bearish outlook.
