Cryptex (CTX) — price, funding and open interest
CTX/USDT perpetual on HTX · Coinbase: price 0.3031, 24h turnover $763K. Updated in real time.
What this is
Decentralised financeCryptex issues TCAP — a token whose price equals the entire crypto market cap divided by ten billion. With one purchase a person gets exposure to the whole market, with no coin picking and no rebalancing; shorting it is a bet that the market falls in aggregate. The idea is elegant, but liquidity for such an instrument is thin: the broader the index, the fewer willing market makers. The CTX token governs the protocol and its treasury.

How to read this
- Funding is a payment between longs and shorts. A positive rate means longs pay shorts: the market is crowded long.
- The rate rank shows how unusual that rate is for this particular coin: 97 means above 97% of the last month, a rare skew. Without the rank the bare number says nothing — every coin has its own normal.
- Open interest is the money sitting in positions that are still open. Rising alongside price means new money entering; rising while price falls means shorts building up.
- The OI rank is measured in contracts rather than dollars: otherwise it would drift up with price alone and claim a record where nothing changed.
- NATR shows how much a coin moves relative to its own price. High NATR with high turnover is where today's action is.
