- KCEX ETH perp: 2,395.63 -> 2,386.02 (-0.40%).

Levels to watch
- BTC: last 81,138.00; 24h high 82,032.70 is the lid, 24h low 80,466.60 the floor; this morning's 81,269.10 is now resistance from below; winning it back would undo the drop.
- ETH: last 2,386.02; 24h range 2,350.81-2,416.66; this morning's print 2,395.63 (-0.40%).
Sellers have the first round. Rallies into 81,269.10 are a retest until an hourly close back above it says otherwise.
Funding & derivatives read
- Majors on KCEX: BTC +0.0039%, ETH +0.0015% per interval.
- Board split: 24 positive / 7 negative / 0 flat of 31 quoted.
- Richest longs: $1INCH.USDT +0.0100%, $FET.USDT +0.0100%, $COMP.USDT +0.0100%.
- Most negative: $BTW.USDT -1.4572%, $SAND.USDT -0.0308%, $IOTX.USDT -0.0204%.
Funding is near baseline overnight into Asia, so leverage is not crowded either way; the next move is more likely to come from spot flow than a liquidation cascade.
