Bitcoin’s futures market is flashing a warning that analysts say could mean more pain ahead. Open interest climbed to roughly 288,000 BTC even as prices fell, with funding rates holding positive at 0.083% — a sign that bullish bets remain in place despite the selloff, leaving the market exposed to another wave of forced liquidations.

That came as Bitcoin slipped below $67,000, dragging short-term holders — those who bought recently — into the red at a pace not seen since early in the year. On Binance alone, short-term holder losses hit -16,400 BTC on June 2. Across all exchanges, that figure reached -38,700 BTC, down slightly from -41,300 BTC recorded on May 28. Data shows these are buyers from recent months who are now exiting positions at a loss. Retail And Mid-Sized Investors Head For The Exits Larger participants are also moving coins. Reports from CryptoQuant analyst Amr Taha show mid-sized investors sent roughly 8,400 BTC to Binance on June 2 alone — the most since February 6. On the retail side, Binance’s 30-day inflow total reached $9.2 billion by June 1, the highest reading since November 20, 2025. Analyst MorenoDV, who tracked the retail flow data, said exchange inflows don’t automatically mean selling is coming, but they tend to show up before stretches of sharper volatility. If buy-side demand absorbs the inflows, the spike could turn into a local exhaustion point — but if it doesn’t, it may mark the start of broader distribution from weaker hands, MorenoDV said. This is called an expanding triangle. Expanding triangles are very common in Bitcoin. They are also typically reliable. The target for expanding triangles is the height projected from the breakout.
