Funding remains at +0.00595% positive rate, longs still paying shorts but absolute level remains low, no extreme crowding in funding. OI rose from 103300 to 104897 (+1.55%), price slightly declined while OI increased, judged as healthy correction in (b) squeeze accumulation phase, no signs of long liquidation stampede. FGI 61 maintains Greed zone, greed sentiment neither warming nor cooling. Comprehensive judgment: BTC consolidating in 76500-77500 range, watching 76000 support and 75500 strong support below, watching 78000-78500 breakout momentum above; upcoming focus on this week's CPI/ETF fund flows and direction of 77000 breakout.
