The Derivatives Market: An Indicator Of Institutional Interest\u00a0 In Bitcoin<\/h2>\n

In the report written by K33\u2019s Senior Analyst Vetle Lunde and Head of Research Anders Helseth, they noted that the derivatives market was important as it can be used to gauge institutional traders\u2019 interest in Bitcoin. In line with this, they touched on how there has been a significant increase in open interest in the <\/span>Chicago Mercantile Exchange<\/span><\/a> (CME) derivatives market.<\/span><\/p>\n

The K33 report specifically noted that the CME\u2019s open interest has grown by over 3,4000 BTC over the past week. Meanwhile, CME\u2019s open interest remains near all-time highs of 110,000 BTC. The increased activity on the CME has resulted from these traders\u2019 desire to gain exposure to Bitcoin ahead of the \u201c<\/span>imminent ETF verdict<\/span><\/a>.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

With a <\/span>potential approval on the horizon<\/span><\/a>, it is believed that many traders are looking to make as much profit as they can from this bullish event. Meanwhile, others have genuinely become bullish on the flagship cryptocurrency and want to gain exposure to it in any way they can. The CME is arguably the most accessible means to gain exposure to Bitcoin for this class of investors.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Coincidentally or not, this happened to be when Bitcoin and the broader crypto market <\/span>picked up steam<\/span><\/a>, as many believed that the Spot Bitcoin ETF rumors were the reason for the rally.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

An approval can cause selling pressure on CME as these institutional investors might look to take profit while others will be looking to transfer their capital to the Spot ETFs.

Considering that futures and Spot ETFs will be in direct competition, they expect the latter to become the more favorable option.
