Derivatives activity (per Binance Futures — this reflects that market only, not the whole network):

  • Funding rate: 0.0083% — mild positive, longs paying a small premium, no squeeze building.
  • Open interest: ~$108K BTC (contract units) — a real position base under the move.

What's moving today:

  • $14.4B in 24h trading volume — strong activity level.
  • Sentiment is firmly bullish at 79% up-votes.
  • Notably, a Decrypt headline flags that Bitcoin's oldest coins are waking up in 2026 at a pace rarely seen — long-dormant supply moving is worth watching, as it often signals early holders taking profit after long holds.
  • Market makers reportedly profiting from the rally without directional bets (CoinDesk).

A quick note on scope: I don't have direct on-chain metrics like hash rate, active addresses, or transaction counts — the network-activity picture here is built from market volume, derivatives, and sentiment data. If you want, I can dig into any specific angle (news, funding detail, etc.).
