Bitcoin open interest (OI) has dropped 12% from $34.7 billion to $30 billion over the past week, which is a net positive considering current market conditions.

Hence, the drop in OI over the past week suggests that short-leverage traders could be nearing the exit until a clearer opportunity arises.
