The Fear That Shapes Us
“In times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.” — George Orwell e World on Edge It begins in silence. A mother turns off the news and looks at her child differently. A father locks the door, not from robbers, but from headlines. An elderly man walks past a newspaper stand and mutters, “They’re lying again.”

Bitcoin vs Open Interest Should traders be worried by THIS divergence
The price action of Bitcoin has recently been scrutinized, but savvy traders are also paying attention to something even more telling: a significant divergence between open interest in Bitcoin and its price. The derivatives market may be sending a cautious signal while the spot market maintains its optimism. Analysts are concerned about this divergence, which raises the question of whether traders should be concerned. Understanding what open interest actually entails is essential before delving into its ramifications. The total number of unresolved derivative contracts in the futures and options markets is referred to as open interest. It shows how much activity and participation there is in the market. An increase in open interest typically suggests that new money is flowing into the market, which can reinforce a trend. A decline could indicate that traders are closing positions, which could indicate indecisiveness or exhaustion of the trend. The price of Bitcoin has been either steady or showing signs of rising, hovering in bullish territory above key support levels in recent weeks. However, open interest in Bitcoin futures has not followed suit. In fact, in several instances, open interest has dropped or stagnated while prices climbed—a classic divergence.
