Crypto market today — BTC $80,460 (+3.37%) · premium +0.23% · 171 up vs 104 down · 5 Nov

The past 24 hours (measured by AntProfit · as of 08:30 on 5 Nov 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. With far more gainers than losers, the market moved together today.

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.

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

• 1000CAT $0.001755 (+3.11%) — spot turnover $3.6M, 10.7x a week ago
• LYN $0.0179 (-19.38%) — spot turnover $3.9M, 9.6x a week ago
• MELI $1,634 (-1.82%) — 7.9x 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 +0.23% — 24h average +0%, range -0.22% to +0.36%. Korean and overseas prices are nearly the same.

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

• VVV premium — Bitrue $21.07 · Upbit $21.89 — 3.90% apart
• NEAR premium — Poloniex $4.01 · Bithumb $4.12 — 2.74% apart
• ERA premium — Binance $0.0682 · Upbit $0.0697 — 2.21% 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 0.0074% per 8h (about 0.02% a day) — At the baseline = longs are not crowded
• ETH 0.0061% per 8h (about 0.02% a day) — At the baseline = longs are not crowded
• 1000CAT a lot of money is betting it falls — holding leverage costs about 3.2% a day (Bybit)
• HOT a lot of money is betting it falls — holding leverage costs about 1.8% a day (KuCoin)

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. Resolution of U.S. Midterm Election Uncertainty Triggers Risk Asset Recovery

On November 4, 2026, vote counting for the U.S. midterm elections showed the Democratic Party taking control of both houses of Congress (the Senate and the House of Representatives). Although initial counting led to a brief dip over fears of regulatory delays, the finalized results cleared political uncertainty, prompting a broad recovery in risk-asset sentiment alongside falling oil prices and a stock market rebound.

Bitcoin (BTC) recovered the $80,000 level after dropping to around $75,700 during intraday trading, while Ethereum (ETH) rose by over 6% to break past $2,400.

2. Crypto Market Absorbs Binance Security Incident Amid Massive Short Liquidations

On November 4, 2026, market experts, including Matt Hougan, Chief Investment Officer of asset manager Bitwise, assessed that the market was calmly digesting the recent security breach at Binance. The breach originated on October 29, 2026, when a Binance engineer was infected with malware linked to fake recruitment processes and AI tools, compromising access to wallet signing systems.

The absorption of the bad news and a sudden surge of about $378 million in short positions (bets that prices will fall) being liquidated within one hour accelerated price gains, driving crypto-related stocks like Coinbase and MicroStrategy up by about 6%.
