On-chain data indicates that the leading digital asset exchange Binance recorded a futures trading volume of $2.55 trillion in July 2025.
In detail, this figure is the highest since January 2025. The growth follows significant price volatility in Bitcoin and other coins, attracting many traders back to the market.
Binance sees a surge in futures trading activity.
The leading digital asset exchange Binance achieved a significant milestone in July, with futures trading volume reaching $2.55 trillion.
Notably, this is the highest monthly growth rate of the platform in the past seven months. This surge comes after a period of significant volatility in Bitcoin prices and some altcoins.
CryptoQuant's data shows that Binance's trading volume accounted for more than half of the total futures trading on major cryptocurrency exchanges in July.
It's important to add that, in comparison, OKX recorded $1.09 trillion and Bybit recorded $929 billion in futures activity.
Similarly, the significant increase in trading indicates that more traders have returned to the market.
Based on observations, rapid price changes can drive traders to enter trades more frequently, especially in the futures market.
Binance's wide range of tradable assets and high liquidity may also help attract more users.
This platform still leads other platforms by a wide margin, solidifying its leading position in the cryptocurrency futures market.
Although the reasons for this surge are not yet entirely clear, the combination of market volatility and user interest seems to play a crucial role.
Bitcoin faces pressure as market liquidity decreases.
Even as trading volume increases, Bitcoin is still struggling due to the declining support level at the end of July.
According to CryptoQuant's analysis, an important liquidity ratio began to decline in mid-July.
By the end of the month, this ratio had dropped to levels indicating that there were only just over three months of Bitcoin available for sale on exchanges.
This suggests that less Bitcoin is being sold, which can sometimes push prices higher.
However, that did not happen. Instead, prices fell, indicating that buying power was not strong enough to keep the market stable.
Meanwhile, CryptoQuant also points out changes in ETF capital flows. The data shows a strong increase followed by deep pullbacks.
This means that the flow of money into and out of Bitcoin ETFs is happening at an unstable rate. This makes the market less supported by institutional investors.
Another issue is the lack of strong buying power from wallets that typically indicate smart accumulation.
These addresses are buying slowly and in small amounts, which does not help maintain high prices.
Without strong new demand, the market will weaken and is more likely to react to any sell orders.
Capital B continues to buy more Bitcoin despite market volatility.
In a separate move, Capital B announced that it has purchased 62 BTC for approximately 6.2 million euros.
The acquisition was completed through a subsidiary based in Luxembourg on August 4. The company used the funds raised through a bond offering worth 6.5 million euros to execute the deal.
This raises the total amount of Bitcoin the company holds to 2,075 BTC. Based on current market prices, the company states that their Bitcoin value is around 189.1 million euros, with an average purchase price of 91,133 euros per coin.
Capital B also reported a Bitcoin yield of 1,446.3% to date and an increase of 578.5 BTC.
The company claims that this acquisition is part of its plan to increase its Bitcoin holdings over time while still maintaining its core business operations.
The company's approach is to increase exposure to Bitcoin through regular purchases rather than sudden large buy transactions.
More importantly, the company plans to continue this model in the future. Notably, an increasing number of companies with Bitcoin strategies are emerging with expectations that the price of this coin will continue to soar.
