Leverage reset in Bitcoin futures—here’s what’s happening. 🔄⚡

Open interest dropped by $3.78B as traders trimmed risk. That’s 26,400 BTC pulled from the table. But it’s not just noise—it’s a signal.

📊 Key breakdown:

CME: Institutional positions steady at $16.26B

Binance & Bybit: Retail cut exposure

KuCoin & OKX: Slight growth, but small market share

Retail sentiment: Still long-biased, per Hyperliquid

This means:

✔️ Less leverage

✔️ Cleaner market

✔️ Directional bias still intact

Unless a major catalyst hits, expect calmer action—but any volume spike could trigger fast moves, especially at long-heavy platforms like Bybit and KuCoin. 📈💥
