So, XRP’s derivatives markets are having a moment, huh? Futures open interest is climbing like my cholesterol after a bagel binge, and options data? Oh, it’s screaming “bullish” louder than my neighbor’s dog at 3 AM. 🦬💹
Binance and Bitget Leading the XRP Circus as OI Climbs 🎪
As of 12:30 p.m. Eastern time on Aug. 8, 2025, XRP is trading at $3.23, up over 5% in the past 24 hours. Big whoop, right? Well, across all exchanges, XRP futures OI is sitting pretty at $8.56 billion, or 2.64 billion XRP. Bitget’s in the lead with $1.9 billion in OI (587.93 million XRP), Binance is right behind with $1.35 billion (415.23 million XRP), and Bybit’s got $1.27 billion (391.96 million XRP). Because why not throw billions at something that’s basically digital confetti? 🎉

CME, the fancy institutional venue, holds $778.76 million in XRP futures OI (240.95 million XRP). Daily changes? Oh, they’re all over the place. Binance jumped 18.68% in the past 24 hours, Bybit rose 17.03%, and CME gained 14.93%. BingX? They’re on a rocket with an 81.86% spike. 🚀 Meanwhile, Kucoin and Gate are just chilling with moderate gains, and MEXC and OKX are up a measly 10%. Yawn. 😴
XRP Options Bulls Are Throwing a Party 🎉
XRP options market data is like a bull in a china shop. As of 12:45 p.m., call contracts are hogging 89.81% of open interest (215,854.91 USDT), while puts are left with a measly 24,486.38 USDT. Trading volume? 88.94% in calls. The most active contract by OI is XRP-250815-3.4-C with 42,820 contracts, followed by XRP-250815-3.5-C at 20,460. Because who doesn’t love a good gamble? 🎲
Max pain for the Aug. 15, 2025, expiry is $3.20 – just below the current spot price. That’s where the most options expire worthless, which is great news for sellers. But hey, traders are betting on further upside with all those call contracts clustered above that level. Or maybe they’re just setting themselves up for a price pinning near expiry. Who knows? 🤷♂️
So, surging futures OI, dominant call positioning, and a max pain level close to the spot price? Yeah, XRP’s derivatives markets are basically a soap opera right now. With billions on the line across major exchanges, traders are gearing up for some high-stakes drama. Popcorn not included. 🍿
