XRP traders have reduced their futures exposure on Binance by $85.1 million over 13 days following $25.7 million in long liquidations during October 7-8. This reduction in open interest reflects a significant pullback in leveraged bullish positions amid XRP's price decline from $1.52 to $1.29. Despite lower derivatives exposure, XRP balances on exchanges remain high, indicating that spot supply is still abundant. The decrease in leverage may reduce the risk of further forced liquidations, but it does not clearly indicate whether traders are bearish or simply de-risking amid market volatility.
