Dogecoin Open Interest Sees 66.5% Crash
In March, the Dogecoin open interest had risen to a new all-time high of $1.91 billion after a month of steady increase. This was followed by an increase in the DOGE price as investors rushed to join the rally and secure gains. This steady growth would continue into the start of April, but since then, the price has been on a downtrend.
Decline in Open Interest and DOGE Price
Data from Coinglass shows that on April 1, the total Dogecoin open interest came out to $1.87 billion. But in the space of one week, the open interest had fallen by $600 million. The decline continued through to the end of April and by the end of the month, the open interest was at $763 million. With the month of May following the bearish trend of April, the decline in the open interest has been constant. At the time of writing, the total Dogecoin open interest is sitting at $625.7 million, a whopping 66.5% crash from its $1.87 billion level just a month ago.
