BlockBeats News, July 5th, according to Coinglass data, the current mainstream CEX and DEX funding rates show that the bearish sentiment for BTC and ETH has weakened compared to before, but most platforms have not yet formed a sustained bullish signal. Specifically, the BTC funding rate on multiple platforms is around the 0.0100% benchmark, presenting an overall neutral to weak bias. On the ETH side, the funding rates on multiple platforms have surpassed the 0.005% threshold, with ETH's bullish sentiment recovery slightly stronger than BTC's, but a comprehensive bullish signal has not yet formed. BlockBeats Note: The funding rate is a rate set by cryptocurrency exchanges to maintain the balance between the contract price and the price of the underlying asset, usually applicable to perpetual contracts. It is a fund exchange mechanism between long and short traders, and the trading platform does not charge this fee. It is used to adjust the cost or profit of traders holding contracts to keep the contract price close to the price of the underlying asset. When the funding rate is 0.01%, it represents the benchmark rate. When the funding rate is greater than 0.01%, it indicates a generally bullish market. When the funding rate is less than 0.005%, it indicates a generally bearish market.

For this reason, Buterin decided to "sacrifice a part of his own anonymity" for verification: at some point this century, he authored a published document of medium importance to Ethereum and is testing whether the community can identify the true author through analysis.
