All 81 Bitcoin Cash futures markets are perpetuals, CME contract missing from data
- —BCH trades at $294.31, up 4.4% in 24 hours and 3.9% on the week
- —Open interest across 81 perpetual markets is $1.066 billion; 24-hour volume is $825.3 million
- —Tapbit holds 50.5% of open interest, Binance 9.2%, and the top three venues 65.1%
- —CME launched dated BCH futures on October 19, but they are absent from crypto aggregators
Why it matters: Open-interest figures for BCH understate regulated trading and overstate how much leveraged speculation sits on a single venue.
