The Bitcoin open interest has been on the rise over the last few weeks as the price has climbed continuously. This sustained rise in the open interest is a reflection of the heightened interest in the cryptocurrency since the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved Spot Bitcoin ETFs<\/a> for trading. The BTC<\/a> open interest has now climbed to historical levels, reaching 2021 all-time high levels.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Open Interest At 2021 Levels<\/h2>\n

According to data<\/a> from Coinglass, the Bitcoin open interest has risen to more than $24 billion. This growth represents around a 50% jump in the open interest since the year 2024 began. But more importantly, the open interest has risen to levels not seen since 2021.<\/p>\n

Looking at the open interest chart, the last time that the Bitcoin OI was this high was back in November 2021, when the cryptocurrency<\/a> reached its all-time high price of $69,000. This rise in the OI has been consistent across crypto exchanges, with CME, Binance, and ByBit leading the charge and commanding more than 50% of the open interest.<\/p>\n

The continuous rise has also come with a rise in the greed levels among crypto investors. Currently, the Crypto Fear & Greed Index is sitting firmly in Greed, suggesting that crypto investors are in a place where they are willing to take more risks than usual.<\/p>\n

Implications For The BTC Price<\/h2>\n

With the Bitcoin open interest this high, it could end up being negative for the BTC price<\/a>. This is because past performances where the open interest has risen so rapidly have often ended in a market crash. The same was the case in 2021 when the Bitcoin OI had set its previous record.<\/p>\n

In 2021, when the BTC price crossed $69,000 and the open interest crossed $22 billion, the euphoria was incredibly high as it is now. However, this would be short-lived, with a market crash happening shortly after. The BTC price would eventually go from $69,000 to $46,000 by December, dropping by almost 40% in the space of one month.<\/p>\n

If this same trend were to repeat itself in the current trend, then there could be a massive crash in the cards for Bitcoin. A similar decline would see Bitcoin fall back toward $41,000, which would wipe out the gains of the last few weeks.<\/p>\n

However, there are different factors at play in the current market, such as Spot Bitcoin ETF issuers<\/a> seeing massive interest in their exchange-traded products. Just last week, inflows into Spot BTC ETFs<\/a> reached a new record of $2.2 billion. So if these large institutions continue buying BTC to meet the demand of their customers, then the BTC price<\/a> could continue to rally.<\/p>\n
