Ethereum open interest hits new all-time high — Will ETH price follow?
Ether’s open interest hit a record high, but macroeconomic concerns and a decline in Ethereum network fees are deterring investors from buying ETH.
Ether (ETH) price dropped 6% between March 19 and March 21 after failing to break the $2,050 resistance level. More notably, ETH has fallen 28% since Feb. 21, underperforming the broader crypto market, which declined 14% over the same period.
Despite ETH’s price struggles, Ether futures open interest hit a record high on March 21. This has led traders to question whether large investors are positioning for a potential rally toward $2,400 while also raising concerns about the risks of cascading liquidations due to heightened leverage.
