What can't these readings tell you?

These readings describe bets people have already placed. None says which way the price goes next, and none is advice to buy or sell.

Understanding
Bitcoin Open Interest by Exchange

Where it stands today

Binance leads the 7 exchanges we compare on open interest, at $9.00 billion as of 28 Sep 2026.

Open interest and funding: $26.23 billion riding on open bets across 11 exchanges as of 28 Sep 2026.

What is open interest?

Open interest is the money tied up in futures bets that are still open at the end of the day. More of it means more is riding on where the price goes, in either direction.

Why is nothing added up?

These are separate exchanges measuring the same thing, so adding two of them together would produce a number that describes no market. Each bar in the ranking is how large that row is next to the largest row in the table, never a share of a total.

Why only some exchanges?

We do not publish it for every exchange yet, and a reading gets a page of its own only once it has two weeks of daily history. Seven exchanges have a page for it today, each a card here, and a new one appears on the day its page does.

Where do the numbers come from?

Maketo records them at each exchange, one reading a day. Nothing here is bought in.
