🚨 CRYPTO DERIVATIVES OPEN INTEREST — 2025 RECAP 🚨


2025 was a leverage rollercoaster.


📉 Started the year quiet

📈 Exploded into heavy leverage by Q3

💥 Then flushed hard


📊 Key numbers that matter:

• OI peaked at a record $235.9 BILLION on Oct 7

• Ended the year at $145.1 BILLION

• Still +17% in H2 despite the drawdown


Translation 👇

This wasn’t a market exit — it was risk reset.


High leverage got wiped, but participation stayed.

Capital didn’t leave crypto — it de-risked.


That’s what healthy markets do before the next expansion.


⚠️ Takeaway for traders:


Extreme OI = volatility fuel


Falling OI + steady price = stronger base

The next move won’t start with hype — it starts with positioning

Smart money watches open interest, not headlines.
