<li>Derivatives at banks in the United States have seen a growth of 2,098% from 1992 to 2022, according to data from <a href="https://www.usbanklocations.com/bank-rank/derivatives.html">U.S. bank locations</a> analyzed by CryptoSlate.</li>
<li>The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 1992 to 2022 is 10.8%</li>
<li>The current value of total derivatives in US banks is $192.874 trillion. The top three banks, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase, and Citibank, have a combined total of $150 trillion worth of derivatives.</li>
<li>This is an important topic to bring to light, as we&#8217;ve had a regional banking collapse in the U.S. A lot of the major banks are propped up with trillions of dollars worth of derivatives; this can lead to a cascade with higher interest rates.</li>
<li>There is currently $10 billion worth of futures open interest in Bitcoin, which was as high as $25 billion in 2021. Open interest is less than 2% of the Bitcoin market cap.</li>
<li>It is paramount for a healthy bull run for derivatives to stay muted compared to spot volume.</li>
