- Is one other pullback imminent earlier than the subsequent leg up?
Bitcoin [BTC] derivatives Open Curiosity (OI) has dropped to a five-month low as merchants de-risk amid volatility. In lower than two weeks, roughly $14 billion in positions have been closed.

Weak spot demand, coupled with continued de-risking in derivatives, leaves Bitcoin uncovered to a different pullback earlier than a possible transfer towards $90K.
