Bitcoin futures see sharp rise in open interest as BTC moves toward peak levels; DOGE, ADA, XRP up 4%.

Bitcoin’s price stability above $100,000 is sparking a surge in futures market activity, setting the stage for a potential breakout to new all-time highs.

Bitcoin (BTC) hovered just above $107,000 on Tuesday, closing in on its record peak as traders ramp up leveraged bets.

Futures open interest on major platforms climbed to an unprecedented $75 billion in U.S. dollar terms, signaling strong speculative interest and increasing use of margin.

Meanwhile, the spot market continues its steady advance, with Bitcoin maintaining levels above $100,000 for over 11 consecutive days—something many view as a sign of robust demand and accumulation.

“This phase looks like a period of consolidation and accumulation,” said Ruslan Lienkha, chief of markets at YouHodler, in an email to CoinDesk. “Such conditions often precede a fresh upward leg that could push BTC to new heights.”

Bitcoin traded near $107,500 as of Tuesday morning, up about 1.5% over the last day. Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL) rose roughly 2%, while Dogecoin (DOGE), Cardano (ADA), and XRP each gained around 3-4%.

Derivatives markets back this optimism: the call-to-put open interest ratio climbed to 1.55 over the weekend, while premiums on out-of-the-money calls increased—indicators that traders are gearing up for a bullish move, according to HTX Research analyst Chloe Zheng.

Short-term implied volatility fell to an 18-month low of 35-40%, reflecting calm market conditions even as leveraged positions swell.

“This blend of high confidence and low volatility can mask rising leverage, which often precedes rapid price moves,” HTX Research noted. “Bitcoin could revisit all-time highs within the next 30 to 45 days.”

That said, the $107,000 resistance level remains a hurdle. FxPro’s Alex Kuptsikevich remarked that retail investors and momentum traders are driving current prices despite ongoing macroeconomic uncertainties and exchange security worries.

“The market’s trajectory will hinge on global risk appetite,” Kuptsikevich said. “A breakthrough above $107K could open the path to $115K.”
