Open interest is an indicator of increasing market activity and trader sentiment surrounding a certain asset. It is calculated as the total amount of all outstanding or “unsettled” Bitcoin futures contracts across exchanges. 
The rise in open interest for Bitcoin futures coincides with the recent price rally of Bitcoin, which has surged to <a href="https://in.tradingview.com/chart/32YLaAfd/?symbol=BITSTAMP%3ABTCUSD" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">$52,300</a>, a 23% increase year-to-date and a level last seen in December 2021. 
The open interest in Bitcoin futures has climbed by almost 30% since the start of 2024. This indicates that traders are opening up more positions and anticipating larger price moves soon.

Bitcoin futures are not the only crypto-based derivative contracts that have witnessed a growth in open interest. Ether futures, which are based on the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, have also seen a 50% increase in open interest since the start of 2024, reaching $10.5 billion. its trading price increased to $2,900, signifying a gain of more than 27% so far this year. 
A major contributing factor to the current surge in interest in cryptocurrency-based derivatives is the launch of Bitcoin spot <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/bitcoin-etfs-could-push-btc-price-to-112k-in-2024-cryptoquant/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ETFs</a> by companies like <a href="https://www.fidelity.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">Fidelity</a> and <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/blackrocks-bitcoin-etf-dominates-market-with-record-inflows/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">BlackRock</a> in the last month. 
In a comparatively short period of time, these exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have drawn inflows totaling over $4 billion, indicating investors’ interest in the broader cryptocurrency market. These ETFs follow the price of Bitcoin directly instead of through futures contracts.
