TechFlow reported on January 19, according to CryptoSlate, data showed that the total open interest in Bitcoin options surged to approximately $74.1 billion by mid-January, surpassing the $65.22 billion open interest in Bitcoin futures for the first time. Analysts pointed out that when options open interest exceeds that of futures, it typically indicates a market shift from raw directional leverage toward more structured risk exposure, such as hedging, yield strategies, and volatility positions. Meanwhile, data from Checkonchain revealed that Bitcoin options open interest had sharply declined at the end of last December before being rebuilt in early January, consistent with the pattern of market risk rebuilding following major expiry dates. In contrast, futures open interest remained relatively stable during the same period.
