In October, Bitcoin's daily spot trading volume averaged about $6.8 billion early in the month but showed signs of weakening demand by late October, despite the price rising above $85,000. Options and futures open interest remained substantial, ranging from $37 billion to $38 billion for options and $51 billion to $55 billion for futures, indicating many outstanding positions. The call options made up about 59% to 60% of options open interest, reflecting a bullish bias among traders. Meanwhile, inflows into U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs stayed subdued, suggesting cautious investor sentiment. This mix of softer spot demand but strong derivatives activity highlights a complex market dynamic going forward.
