Crypto Market Rebound: Macro Correlation and Derivatives Open Interest Drive Upward Trend
The cryptocurrency market has shown signs of recovery over the past 24 hours, with top cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), XRP, and Cardano (ADA) experiencing a surge in prices.
This upward trend is attributed to the increased correlation between crypto markets and the wider equity markets. Data from TheBlock shows an 81% 30-day correlation to the S&P 500, indicating that broader risk sentiments have affected price action.
The growth of derivatives open interest is also a contributing factor to this rally. According to Coinglass data, Bitcoin's open interest increased by 1.6% to $44.27 billion, while Ethereum's rose by 6.44% to almost $26 billion.
