Woofun AI data shows that leveraged funds narrowed their combined net bearish position on CME Bitcoin futures by 5,566.5 BTC-equivalent from July 21 to July 28. Asset managers decreased standard-contract net shorts by 428 contracts (2,140 BTC) and micro-contract net shorts by 643 contracts (64.3 BTC).
