Worldcoin (WLD) faces $41.45 million net outflow in derivatives market
Worldcoin (WLD) experienced significant volatility, with its price dropping approximately 11% in the early hours of September 24. This decline was accompanied by a $41.45 million net outflow in the perpetual derivatives market, where sell orders reached $280.92 million.
The downturn heavily impacted long positions, resulting in $4.32 million in liquidations. This figure was significantly higher than the $39,090 in short position liquidations. In the perpetual market, the funding rate dropped to -0.0096% before recovering slightly to -0.0046%, indicating a period where short positions were relatively more dominant.
In the spot market, data showed a net inflow of $6.02 million, with total inflows of $63.89 million outweighing outflows of $57.87 million. While net inflows in spot markets can sometimes suggest accumulation, the current market dynamics and capital pullouts from derivatives suggest continued downward pressure on the asset's price.
