Ethereum’s price has spent the week bouncing between $2,324 and $2,575, but beneath the price swings, derivatives traders are carrying $30.59 billion in futures exposure while options bulls command nearly 62% of outstanding positions.

Ethereum’s futures market isn’t exactly running short of ammunition. Current Coinglass figures show 12.63 million ETH in outstanding futures contracts, valued at $30.59 billion, even after aggregate open interest slipped 0.42% over 24 hours.
