Recent developments in the cryptocurrency market have led to an all-time high in Bitcoin futures open interest, signaling a significant rise in trading activity and investor interest.

Record High Open Interest

Bitcoin open interest has peaked at $55.7 billion according to Coinglass. CME is the largest holder, accounting for 32.3% of the total with 197,620 BTC valued at $18 billion. Binance follows with 19.47% or over 119,000 BTC worth $10.86 billion. Bybit, Bitget, and OKX are also among the top exchanges in terms of open interest.

Market Reaction to US Elections

The recent recovery in open interest reflects a bullish market rally that began following the US presidential elections on November 5. Amidst Donald Trump's victory, Bitcoin surged to new record highs, reaching $93,480.

Resistance and Movement Forecasts

Bitcoin is encountering resistance at the $91,265 level and must overcome this barrier to continue its upward trend. Currently, the CCI is in overbought territory, potentially indicating a slowdown. If resistance holds, prices may fall to support levels at $88,000, $87,113, and $83,258.

The current high levels of open interest reflect investor optimism for Bitcoin's future growth, potentially leading to a retest of previous highs if resistance is breached.
