Ethereum Open Interest Rises By $1.5 Billion What This Means

Ethereum (ETH) recorded a significant loss in price this week following the trading debut of Ethereum spot ETFs. According to data from CoinMarketCap, ETH has declined by 6.60% in the last seven days, falling as low as $3,100. However, amidst this price crash, CryptoQuant analyst burakkesmeci has made an important observation with a potential impact on market movement. Related Reading: Ethereum Targets Recovery: Can It Mirror Bitcoins Performance? Ethereum Open Interest Surges By $1.5 Billion In Three Weeks In a Quicktake post on CryptoQuant, burrakesmeci shared that the Open Interest (OI) on Ethereum has risen by a remarkable $1.5 billion in the past three weeks. For context, Open Interest refers to the total number of outstanding positions for a particular asset. Generally, an increase in Open Interest indicates a rise in market participation for any asset i.e., more traders are opening long or short positions on Ethereum. With this rise in open positions, there is likely an equal increase in the number of leverage trades.  Burakkesmeci expressed that a surge in liquidations should also be expected as leveraged trades, which are open with borrowed funds, are always closed once an insufficient price margin occurs. Furthermore, This increase in leverage trading liquidations is expected to produce a high market volatility, resulting in unpredictable and rapid price movements.  In regards to price action, a rise in Open Interest indicates the current market trend is gaining stronger. Therefore, despite Ethereums price dip in the last week, the prominent altcoin is likely to extend its 7.01% gain of the past three weeks in the coming months.  At the time of writing, Ethereum presently trades at $3,278.80 with a 3.46% increase in the last 24 hours. The altcoin appears to be attempting a market recovery with a strong resistance expected at the $3,500 region. However, if the current buying pressure proves insufficient to break past this barrier, Ethereum could return to the $3,100 price mark or even slide as low as $2,900. Related Reading: Ethereum Whales Rapidly Accumulate ETH Amid Price Decline Ethereum Spot ETFs Net Outflows Reach $469 Million In another development, the newly launched Ethereum Spot ETF market has now recorded a cumulative outflow of $469.83 million in its first three days of trading. Data from Farside Investors identifies Grayscale’s ETHE with a total outflow of $1.51 billion as the major cause of this current market position.   Meanwhile, BlackRocks ETHA continues to lead the market with inflows worth $354.8 million, followed closely by Bitwises ETHW with $265.9 million.  Like their Bitcoin counterparts, the debut of the Ethereum spot ETF has been accompanied by a significant price drop. However, it remains uncertain whether these Ethereum ETFs will eventually trigger a price surge akin to the one experienced in the Bitcoin market during the initial two months of BTC Spot ETF trading.

Bitcoins Most Critical Support Level At $69,000 Heres Why

The price of Bitcoin made a strong start to the month of April, reaching as high as $87,000 on Wednesday, April 2. The flagship cryptocurrency couldn’t sustain this blistering momentum, dropping below $84,000 in the late hours of Friday, April 4. However, the BTC price has been relatively stable compared to the altcoin market and the US equities market following the announcement of new trade tariffs by United States President Donald Trump. This show of resilience has reinforced the idea that the bull cycle might not be over just yet. Why Bitcoin Price Must Remain Above $69,000 In a Quicktake post on the CryptoQuant platform, crypto analyst Burak Kesmeci analyzed the Bitcoin market relative to the downturn affecting the broader financial markets. The analyst offered insight on the most critical support level should the premier cryptocurrency witness a similar decline. Related Reading: PEPE Price Breaks Ascending Triangle To Target Another 20% Crash Kesmeci pinpointed the Bitcoin Spot ETF Realized Price as a crucial metric to watch if the price of BTC succumbs to bearish pressure. As its name suggests, the Bitcoin Spot ETF Realized Price indicator measures the average price at which each Bitcoin exchange-traded fund was acquired. According to Kesmeci, the average purchase price of the BTC ETFs has acted as a formidable support area since the exchange-traded funds launched in early 2024. As observed in the chart below, the flagship cryptocurrency has tested the Bitcoin ETF’s realized price multiple times in the past 15 months. Kesmeci highlighted that the ETF realized price and Bitcoins most critical support level currently stand at around $69,000. The community analyst noted that the premier cryptocurrency is less likely to witness any severe correction so long as it does not slip beneath this price level. When Will BTC Resume Bull Run? While the Bitcoin ETFs realized price is a crucial support level that could prevent a deep correction, the short-term holder (STH) realized price could prove pivotal to the resumption of the bull run. Ali Martinez said in a post on X that the first signal that BTC is ready to resume its bull run is reclaiming the short-term holder realized price at $90,570. As seen in the chart above, the STH realized price is acting as a major resistance to the premier cryptocurrency. The Bitcoin price has tested the on-chain indicator twice since falling beneath it in late February. As of this writing, the market leader is valued at around $83,900, reflecting an over 1% price leap in the past 24 hours. According to data from CoinGecko, the price of BTC is down by nearly 1% in the last seven days. Related Reading: Chainlink Whales Dump Over 170 Million LINK In Three Weeks Selling Pressure Ahead?

Bitcoin Price Climbs Above $85,000 As Open Interest Surges 16% In Past Day

The Bitcoin price action this weekend has been quite bubbly and impressive, with the premier cryptocurrency reclaiming the $85,000 level on Saturday, April 12. This burst of bullish momentum came after United States President Donald Trumps exemption of smartphones, computers, and chips from the new trade tariffs. According to the latest on-chain data, the Bitcoin open interest (OI) has also enjoyed a similar level of resurgence in the past day. The Bitcoin price could be gearing up for an extended upward run, especially with the open interest metric on the rise. How The Latest Spike In Open Interest Could Affect The Market In a Quicktake post on the CryptoQuant platform, analyst Burak Kesmeci revealed that the Bitcoin open interest has seen a notable upswing in the past 24 hours on the worlds largest exchange by trading volume, Binance. The open interest metric measures the total amount of capital flowing into BTC derivatives at a given time. Related Reading: Fartcoin Dominates Crypto Recovery With 230% Surge, Is This A Good Time To Buy? An increase in the open interest usually indicates that Bitcoin traders are taking up new positions in the futures and options market. On the other hand, when the OI metric is declining, it means that BTC investors are exiting the derivatives market or their positions are getting liquidated. Data from CryptoQuant shows that Bitcoins open interest on Binance has increased by a strong 15.8% in the past 24 hours. This surge saw about $1.2 billion flow into derivatives in a single day, growing the OI on the worlds largest exchange from $7.6 billion to $8.8 billion.   Kesmeci highlighted that this rapid rise in Bitcoins open interest suggests a substantial build-up of leverage positions within a short period. The Quicktake analyst noted that Binance now accounts for 31.4% of the market, with a total futures OI of around $28 billion. Kesmeci added: Binance isnt just reflecting the market trend its actively leading it.  The analyst also revealed that such a significant spike in open interest signals heightened activity and increased market volatility, which could lead to sharp liquidations of both long and short positions. Hence, investors might want to exercise caution when opening short-term positions. Bitcoin Price At A Glance As of this writing, the price of BTC stands at around $85,240, reflecting a 2.5% increase in the past 24 hours. According to data from CoinGecko, the flagship cryptocurrency is up by over 2% on the weekly timeframe.

Bitcoin Long-Term Holders Are Buying Again Can They Push BTC Price Higher?

After a dreadful start to the week, the price of Bitcoin appears to be recovering nicely with a strong rally to begin the weekend. The latest on-chain data shows that a specific class of investors might be behind the relative stability experienced by the premier cryptocurrency amidst the recent macroeconomic chaos. Seasoned Investors Are Loading Their Bags Again  In an April 11 post on X, crypto analyst Burak Kesmeci revealed that the Bitcoin long-term holders (LTHs) might be getting more active in the market over the past few weeks. This on-chain observation is based on changes in the Long-Term Holder Net Position Change (30-day sum), a metric that tracks the net change in the BTC supply held by LTHs over a 30-day period. Related Reading: Ethereum Nears Critical Zone Historically Linked To Market Bottoms Is A Rebound Incoming? This metric basically tracks the aggregated behavior of an important investor cohort, providing an insight into the overall sentiment in the market. When this metric is positive, it implies that the long-term holders are in the accumulation phase. On the flip side, when the net position change is negative, it means that Bitcoin LTHs are trimming their holdings and selling their BTC. According to Kesmeci, the long-term investors have been offloading their Bitcoin in the past six months, as the LTH Net Position Change has remained in the negative zone since the last week of October 2024. The metric reached a negative peak level of 827,750 BTC on December 5, 2025, accompanied by a 32% decline in the Bitcoin price. The chart above shows that the Long-Term Holder Net Position Change shifted to the positive territory on April 6, 2024, and appears to be on the rise at the moment. This positive change signals fresh buying amongst the seasoned investors over the past few weeks. Kesmeci noted that the positive shift of the Long-Term Holder Net Position Change has coincided with a recent 12% jump in the Bitcoin price. The Bitcoin price returned above $81,000 after United States President Donald Trump paused trade tariffs on imports from all countries except China. Kesmeci added in the post: Time will tell whether this is just a reactionary bounce or the early stages of a longer bullish phase. However, the metric continuing to remain in the positive region with acceleration could be an important “trend change signal” for us. Nevertheless, the on-chain analyst urged investors to approach the market with caution, as the current momentum is not sufficient. Hence, further conviction is needed from the long-term investors to sustain a major rally in the current market state. Bitcoin Price Overview As of this writing, the premier cryptocurrency is valued at around $83,400, reflecting an almost 5% increase in the past 24 hours. According to data from CoinGecko, BTC has barely changed in the past seven days. However, this record doesnt quite tell the full story, as the Bitcoin price had fallen to around $74,000 at the beginning of the week.  Related Reading: Kaiko Report Highlights Key Drivers of Q1 Crypto Market Decline and Outlook for Q2 Featured image from iStock, chart from TradingView

Analyst Predicts Bitcoin Super Cycle, Sets Price Target At $80,000

Bitcoin, the world’s largest cryptocurrency asset, has finally entered a new price threshold, surpassing its previous all-time high (ATH) of $69,000, accomplished nearly three ago. Following the latest milestone, crypto enthusiasts and experts are very bullish on the digital asset, predicting further upward movement to unprecedented heights in the upcoming months. Bitcoin Super Cycle Area Set At $80,0000 Cryptocurrency analyst Doctor Profit has shared a positive forecast for BTC with the crypto community on the social media platform X. His analysis, tagged “Big Sunday Report,” delves into the next step that BTC is expected to take amid the general market optimism. Related Reading: Bitcoin To $240,000: Analyst Cites Key Narrative As Catalyst Doctor Profit’s projection is based on Technical Analysis (TA), Life-Cycle-Assessment (LCA), and Psychological analysis. Drawing attention to a previous forecast, Doctor Profit stated that a breakout above $48,500 would send the price “all the way to the old ATH very quickly.” Interestingly, this took place in a matter of weeks, at a swift pace. He highlighted that the breakout, which sent Bitcoin to exactly $60,000 as predicted weeks earlier, signaled the start of the “Golden bull phase.” According to the analyst, any movement in the range of “$48,500 to $70,000” right now is considered to be in the golden bull market. Meanwhile, “anything above $72,000” marks the beginning of the “Super Cycle Phase,” indicated by “significant green candle returns and surges.” The expert is confident that before the asset goes higher, it will maintain a “movement inside the golden bull and super cycle.” Specifically, these sideways movements will go on for a while, primarily between “$60,000 (Golden Bull area) and $80,000 (Super Cycle area).” Doctor Profit noted that the movement is not because Bitcoin seems weak or needs to be corrected. Instead, its rally was very swift making it difficult for big market cap altcoins to keep up with the crypto asset. Despite Bitcoin reaching a new peak, major altcoins like ETH, BNB, or SOL still have not been able to record significant inflows, suggesting a pending activation of a robust altcoin market. BTC To Move In Four Phase In This Bull Cycle So far, Doctor Profit expects Bitcoin to move in four distinct phases in this upcoming bull run. The experts underlined the first aspect, “signifying the conclusion of the bear market,” was between $16,000 and $25,000. Related Reading: Bitcoin Fee Shock: Network Charges Double Amidst Excitement Of $70,000 BTC He explains that the next phase, the “pre-bull market,” comprises two aspects. According to the analyst, the initial pre-bull step opened up “between $25,000 and $38,500,” while the second stretched between “$38,000 to $48,000.” Meanwhile, from “$48,000 to $70,000 is when the golden bull phase began.” This, he expects, to lead to the Super Cycle area that will “last from $72,500 to unprecedented levels.” Currently, the price of Bitcoin has increased by over 3% in the last 24 hours, trading at $72,139. Its trading volume and market cap are also showing strength, rising by 78% and 3% respectively. Featured image from iStock, chart from Tradingview.com
