Crypto market today — BTC $79,939 (-0.48%) · premium +0.84% · 143 up vs 133 down · 27 Oct

The past 24 hours (measured by AntProfit · as of 08:30 on 27 Oct KST)

These numbers are not borrowed from other outlets — we read them directly from 21 exchanges.

A funding rate at the 0.01% baseline means longs are not crowding the futures market. And a premium near zero means both sides run at a similar temperature. Gainers and losers were balanced, so it came down to the individual coin.

Biggest gainers and losers (24h)

We count only coins with at least $10M turnover listed on three or more exchanges (this keeps single-venue pumps and scam tokens out). Prices come from the largest venue by turnover; turnover from the largest spot venue.

Biggest losers

Where the money went (turnover far above a week ago)

• T $0.004716 (-10.68%) — spot turnover $2.8M, 10.6x a week ago
• MAGMA $0.3011 (-12.65%) — spot turnover $244.4K, 10.4x a week ago
• BULLA $0.1529 (+66.72%) — spot turnover $2.1M, 9x a week ago

If turnover jumps while the price does not, someone large may be accumulating or exiting — check the order book on the coin page.

Kimchi premium right now

The kimchi premium (the price gap between Korean and overseas exchanges) is +0.84% — 24h average +0.81%, range +0.61% to +1.15%. Korea is slightly more expensive = normal domestic demand.

Coins with the widest gaps in our latest scan (one row per coin):

• BLUR premium — Binance $0.00727 · Upbit $0.00913858 — 25.70% apart
• VVV premium — Bitrue $23.87 · Upbit $24.99 — 4.71% apart
• Q premium — Bitget $0.1914 · Bithumb $0.1970 — 2.94% apart

Read these gaps after fees, transfer time and FX. They are not an arbitrage call — they are a thermometer for which side of the market runs hotter.

Funding-rate skew (which way futures lean)

The funding rate is a fee that passes periodically between longs and shorts in perpetual futures. Positive means longs pay shorts; the further it drifts from the 0.01% baseline, the more crowded one side is.

• BTC 0.01% per 8h (about 0.03% a day) — At the baseline = longs are not crowded
• ETH 0.01% per 8h (about 0.03% a day) — At the baseline = longs are not crowded
• T a lot of money is betting it falls — holding leverage costs about 6.28% a day (Bybit)
• IRYS a lot of money is betting it falls — holding leverage costs about 6.01% a day (Bybit)

A holding cost this wide is not an income opportunity — it is a signal that one side is badly crowded. On such coins, price swings dwarf the fee.

Yesterday's main stories

1. Crypto Market Falls Ahead of U.S. Fed Interest Rate Decision

On October 26, overall risk-averse sentiment in the market intensified ahead of the U.S. Federal Reserve's FOMC (Federal Open Market Committee, the Fed's monetary policy-making body) interest rate decision, combined with weakness in global tech stocks, high oil prices, and concerns over the U.S. presidential election and fiscal deficit.

Bitcoin fell below the psychological support level of $80,000 to the $79,800 range, while Ethereum dropped below its 200-day moving average ($2,329) to near the $2,300 mark.

2. Bitmine Announces Ethereum Holdings Reaching 6.05 Million ETH

Crypto treasury holding firm Bitmine Immersion Technologies announced on October 26 that its Ethereum holdings reached 6.05 million ETH, representing approximately 4.95% of the total ETH supply. The company's total asset holdings, including cash and cryptocurrency, stand at $15 billion.

Despite corporate-scale ETH purchases and staking activity, it failed to reverse the downward trend in Ethereum prices due to broader macroeconomic headwinds and ETF outflows.

3. Galaxy Research Releases Report Stating Bitcoin Bear Market Has Ended

Alex Thorn, head of research at Galaxy Research, stated in a report published on October 26 that the Bitcoin bear market (a period of prolonged price declines) since late June has ended, citing a significant decrease in selling pressure from long-term holding wallets.

The report presented a long-term buy-and-hold outlook, but its immediate impact on prices was limited due to short-term caution surrounding the upcoming FOMC meeting.
