CryptoQuant Analyst: The Bitcoin deleveraging phase has ended, and the futures open interest has returned to an upward trend

2026-05-22 15:21:22

CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost tweeted that since October 10 of last year, the Bitcoin derivatives market has undergone an 8-month deleveraging process, with Binance futures positions once falling below the 180-day moving average.

However, this trend began to change in early May. Binance Open Interest rebounded from $6.4 billion in March to approximately $8.96 billion currently, re-establishing itself above the 180-day moving average (around $8.75 billion), marking the basic end of the deleveraging phase.

Darkfost pointed out that traders re-entering the market have provided support for the current rebound, but the macro environment remains severe, and the trend is still relatively weak.
