- BONK’s price decline led to an $8 million drop in Open Interest.
- The positive funding rate favors long contracts, but bearish sentiment persists.
BONK’s recent price collapse has resulted in a severe drop in investor confidence, as evidenced by the asset’s Open Interest (OI).
CoinMarketCap data show that BONK is now trading at about $0.00003317, down 3.03% in the last day and 3.72% lower than it was seven days ago. The OI dropped from $24 million to $16 million, then somewhat recovered to $17.27 million, which worries investors.
The dramatic decline in OI indicates a pessimistic attitude among investors, despite the fact that the positive funding rate favors long contracts. Should this tendency persist, prices may drop even further.
Open Interest and Its Implications
Total outstanding derivative contracts, such as futures or options, that have not been settled are known as open interest (OI). It offers insight into the liquidity and trading activity of an asset.
A higher OI reveals greater interest and involvement in the market, while a lower one reveals declining interest. Regarding BONK, the OI decline from $24 million to $16 million, with a little rebound to $17.27 million, suggests a decline in investor confidence that could have a detrimental impact on its price.
