Main TakeawaysBinance leads the perpetual futures market with the highest open interest in bitcoin and ether, reflecting strong trader confidence and activity in the exchange.During major bull runs, Binance experiences the fastest growth in open interest, highlighting its appeal for traders seeking reliable and efficient exposure to digital assets.Binance’s robust infrastructure enables smooth risk management during volatile periods, reinforcing its reputation as a trusted platform in all market conditions.A recent study by CryptoQuant revealed that Binance has again topped the charts for open interest in both bitcoin and ether perpetual futures, most recently by 30% and 31%, respectively. These numbers tell a story about trader confidence, exchange activity, and platform reliability.In this blog, we’ll break down what open interest means, why it matters, and take a closer look at the factors behind Binance’s leading position in the perpetuals market.What is Open Interest?Open Interest (OI) measures the total value of active perpetual futures contracts. The OI for a trading platform therefore gives a sense of how active futures traders on that exchange are. The more open positions there are, the more buyers and sellers are trading, which points to strong participation and engagement. Hence, OI effectively captures how active, liquid, and trusted a trading environment is. A higher OI reflects deeper liquidity, and generally indicates tighter spreads and faster execution. These qualities, in turn, strengthen traders’ confidence in the platform's reliability, execution speed, and robust risk management.Binance is the Top Choice During Bull RunsDuring periods of high trading volume, traders naturally seek platforms that can keep pace and offer cost-effective execution. In recent crypto rallies, many of them turned to Binance.During key breakout moments — such as BTC crossing $100K in November 2024 and May 2025, and ETH surging 73% and 44% in December 2024 and May 2025, respectively — Binance recorded some of the strongest open interest (OI) growth across the industry. Data source: CryptoQuant (Top, Bottom)Bitcoin OI rose by $3.8 billion and $2.5 billion, while ETH OI increased by $3.5 billion and $2.4 billion. These gains reflect strong demand from traders seeking exposure during periods of upward momentum. For ether futures in particular, Binance saw a clear lead over other platforms. The runner-up recorded $3 billion and $2.1 billion in ETH OI growth during the same periods. This puts Binance ahead by approximately 17% in December 2024 and 14% in May 2025.This trend suggests that traders chose Binance for access, reliability, liquidity, and execution speed – critical factors when markets move fast. Rather than relying on hype, Binance focused on delivering a stable, responsive trading environment, giving users the confidence to act decisively when opportunity knocks.Binance Proves Its Strength in Volatile MarketsBinance isn’t just a preferred platform during rallies – it’s also where traders turn to manage risk efficiently in times of heightened market stress.Case in Point: Rising Geopolitical Tensions in June 2025In June 2025, amid escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, market volatility surged. Traders moved quickly to adjust their exposure, and Binance recorded the largest decrease in open interest, with $2.1 billion in positions closed within a short span.This rapid shift was only possible because Binance’s infrastructure held up under pressure.
