News from over the weekend on @HyperliquidX:
vntl:ANTHROPIC funding ran at ~70% APR most of the week, then spiked to 13,374% APR on Saturday.
Longs were paying every hour just to stay long.
Why does it matter?
Anthropic isn't public. This perp (built by @ventuals) is one of the only ways to price the AI valuation thesis onchain.
When funding sustains this high, it's a live bet on Anthropic's next funding round.
Funding tells you when a trade is crowded. It doesn't tell you who's right.
