Bitcoin Dated Futures Open Interest & Volume

Compare how open interest and trading volume are distributed across Bitcoin futures venues and expiration dates. Open interest counts outstanding positions; volume captures contracts traded during the stated period.

Dated Bitcoin futures settle at a specified expiry. The futures basis is the difference between a futures price and the underlying spot price. A positive basis means the futures contract trades at a premium; a negative basis means it trades at a discount.

The term structure compares contracts with different expiries. Annualized basis accounts for time remaining until settlement, making maturities easier to compare. Near-expiry annualized values can be sensitive to small price differences, so read them alongside the contract price and expiry.
