According to the latest market data, the total open interest of Bitcoin contracts across the network has experienced significant growth. In the past 24 hours, the total BTC contract open interest surged by 5.43%, surpassing the $63.793 billion mark.

Looking at the distribution of open interest across major platforms, a leading exchange still maintains its top position with an open interest of $12.333 billion. Among other mainstream trading platforms, open interest stands at $6.08 billion and $3.914 billion respectively, showing a tiered market structure.

This wave of open interest growth reflects active market participation. As the contract market regains popularity, the battle between bulls and bears has become more intense. Is it institutions quietly building positions, or retail investors following the trend? The market sentiment behind the data is worth paying attention to.

Here we go again, this wave of position growth feels a bit fake --- 637 billion? The number looks good, but is anyone really making money? --- Is this a sign of institutions accumulating, or are we about to get cut again? --- The gradient distribution is quite obvious, the advantage of top exchanges looks really terrifying --- The rebound in contract trading volume = the retail investors are back on the stage, no doubt --- The battle between bulls and bears is intense... Basically, it's just mutual harvesting --- The data looks good, but the result for retail investors often ends the same way --- That more than five-point increase isn't as crazy as I imagined --- Looking at the position data reminds me of the last liquidation wave, a bit scary

Signals before institutions dump the market, these data look a bit intense --- Are we about to start cutting the leeks again? Contracts really should be avoided --- Positions are increasing rapidly... Is this another trick? --- Wait, is this to pump or to dump? The signal is unclear --- Retail investors are still increasing leverage, institutions probably already ran away haha --- 637 billion, is this wave really taking off or just a flash in the pan? --- Let's see the trend after 24 hours, these data are uncertain --- Why does it feel like every time positions increase, it's not a good sign --- Staking or contracts... I think I'll just hold on

They're trying to accumulate again, this move by the institution.

Here we go again, the contract positions are skyrocketing... Is this really institutional accumulation or are they about to cut the leeks again? Wait, this data looks a bit outrageous, soaring 5.43% in just 24 hours. Is it real? Institutional accumulation? Laughing out loud, retail investors are still buying at high levels... Breaking through 63.7 billion, it feels like every time the data hits a new high, something goes wrong. Who will be trapped this round? I bet five dollars it's retail investors.
