Less than 24 hours after Ethereum‘s technical upgrade Merge was planned, the cost of holding a short position or bearish bet in the Ethereum-related perpetual futures market is soaring.

Funding rates, or costs, for holding bullish/bearish (long/short) bets in ethereum perpetual futures listed on cryptocurrency exchange Binance are at their lowest levels since May 2021.

Average funding rates on major exchanges, including Binance, fell to record lows, according to data tracked by Coinalyze.

In other words, compensation paid by shorts to longs to maintain positions has soared and hit a 16-month high on Binance, reflecting excessive demand for bets on a potential price drop.
