📈 ETH Open Interest Hits 40% — Institutional Capital Rotates From BTC to Ethereum 🧠🔥

According to Glassnode, Ethereum (ETH) now holds a commanding 40% share of open interest in CME Futures ($7.85B) — the highest since April 2023. In the past 24 hours, ETH futures volume surged to $104.2B, outpacing Bitcoin’s $67.5B and signaling a major capital rotation underway.

🔍 Why It Matters:

This shift reflects growing institutional confidence in ETH, supported by:

✅ StarHeroes DAO’s 410 ETH ($1.5M) reserve

✅ Bernstein’s Treasury Outlook citing 3–5% ETH staking yield

✅ Anticipation of ETH’s inclusion in the U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile, potentially triggering a 5–10% rally toward $4,000–$4,500

💸 Capital Flows: ETH Over BTC?

ETH leads in altcoin open interest ($44.2B total)

BTC market cap dominance (59.64%) remains strong, but risks a 3–5% dip if capital continues shifting to ETH

Over 50% of ETH supply is staked, reducing liquid supply and intensifying price movements

ETF inflows and open interest surge suggest bullish momentum — but caution is warranted near the $4,500 resistance due to leverage-driven volatility

🏛️ What’s Driving the Momentum?

Institutional appetite is likely fueled by regulatory clarity (via the GENIUS Act) and ETH’s potential role in the federal Digital Asset Stockpile, which legitimizes it as a strategic reserve asset alongside BTC.

📊 The narrative is changing: ETH is not just a programmable asset—it’s becoming institutional-grade collateral in the emerging global digital economy.

⚠️ Traders and analysts are watching closely. Will ETH lead the next leg of the bull cycle?
