Bitcoin Long Positions Ease Among Top Traders, Signaling Leverage Cooling

Bitcoin long positioning among top futures traders eased on Friday, with the sharpest pullback in USDT-margined accounts. In coin-margined futures, BTC's long share slipped to 65.67%, down 2.05 percentage points from the prior day. This signals some leveraged bulls are de-risking rather than adding exposure ahead of the next move.
