<p style="text-align: justify"><strong>CryptoQuant</strong> data indicates that the leading smart contract platform Ethereum (ETH) derivatives market has recently seen an increase, with open positions reaching the highest levels in several weeks.</p> 
<h2 id="rising-metrics-in-ethereum">Rising Metrics in Ethereum</h2> 
<p style="text-align: justify">This sudden spike in activity began with the emergence of a fake announcement claiming that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) had approved a <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/max-keiser-warns-of-potential-us-government-seizure-of-bitcoin-in-etfs/" data-wpel-link="internal">Bitcoin</a>-based exchange-traded fund (ETF) from account X. At the time of writing, ETH’s open positions across all exchanges were $6.4 billion, a 15% increase since the fake announcement on January 9.</p> 
<p style="text-align: justify">An increase in a token’s open positions like this indicates more activity in the token’s derivatives market. More people entering or exiting positions could mean investors are hedging or speculating on the price. If the increase in open interest also leads to a price increase, it could indicate new <a href="https://newslinker.co/category/finance/" data-wpel-link="exclude">money</a> entering the market and potentially driving the price even higher. According to <strong>CoinMarketCap</strong> data, ETH’s value has seen a double-digit increase since January 9.</p>

<h2 id="current-data-on-ethereum">Current Data on Ethereum</h2> 
<p style="text-align: justify">With the rise in ETH’s price, many short positions are being liquidated. According to <strong>Coinglass</strong> data, as of January 10, $61.33 million in short positions were wiped from the market, compared to $28.03 million in long liquidations recorded on the same day. Later on January 10, SEC Chairman Gary Gensler confirmed that the agency had approved all 11 spot Bitcoin (BTC) ETF applications. The long-awaited approval led to an increase in ETH trading activity over the last 24 hours. CoinMarketCap data shows an 80% increase in trading volume and a 10% increase in price during this period.</p> 
<p style="text-align: justify">ETH’s price movements observed in the 12-hour chart confirmed the increase in cryptocurrency accumulation, and fundamental momentum indicators settled into overbought levels. At the time of writing, the token’s relative strength index (RSI) was 73.64, and the money flow index (MFI) was 79.53. However, the price increase led to a gradual rise in market volatility.</p> 
<p style="text-align: justify">According to readings from ETH’s Bollinger Bands indicator, the upper and lower gaps that make up this indicator were beginning to widen at the time of writing. This widening of the gaps indicates an increase in volatility. This typically means that an asset’s price is experiencing greater volatility than usual.</p>
