Pippin Surges 26%, Rally Fueled by Record Derivatives Activity

-

The cryptocurrency Pippin (PIPPIN) surged 26% in 24 hours, marking the market’s largest gain despite weak broader conditions. Derivatives data shows fresh capital inflows driving the rally, but liquidity analysis suggests the move may be absorbing bullish positioning ahead of a potential reversal.


The cryptocurrency PIPPIN posted a sharp 26% gain, the largest advance across the market, even as broader conditions remained weak. While the move attracted fresh capital inflows, derivatives and liquidity data suggest the rally may be absorbing bullish liquidity ahead of a potential downside move.

Bullish positioning in PIPPIN’s derivatives market played a central role in the current rally. Open Interest surged to approximately $11.2 million, marking its highest level since January 8, which Coinalyze confirms as fresh capital entry. The aggregated Funding Rate remained positive at 0.0055%, showing that long positions are paying a premium and that bullish traders dominate market positioning.

Analysis of the liquidation heatmap highlights elevated liquidity clusters above the current price, with a notable concentration around the $0.35 level. If PIPPIN sweeps liquidity near $0.35, the move could be followed by a sharp reversal toward a significant liquidity cluster sitting near $0.24. Such a move would align with a classic bull trap scenario, where late long positions are drawn in during a rally before the price reverses and liquidates them.

Momentum indicators present a conflicting picture, as the Moving Average Convergence Divergence has formed a Golden Cross indicating improving short-term momentum. However, the Average Directional Index suggests the strength of the move remains limited, as it has yet to rise above the 25 threshold typically associated with strong, sustained trends. The price has also moved into a well-defined supply fair value gap, which is likely to act as resistance and could catalyze a downside move if the price fails to hold above it.
