Futures on Binance are already 5 times fatter than spot! 😱 Leverage mania 2026, spot in suspended animation 💀
🎰 Traders are no longer buying crypto — they are just playing in a casino with leverage on Binance.
The futures/spot ratio is now ≈ 5.1 — this means that for every $1 of spot, there are over $5 of futures. The highest level since mid-2023 (1.5-year maximum).
For the year 2025 on Binance:
🔹️Total trading volume — $32.39 trillion
🔹️Derivatives (futures, perpetuals, etc.) — $25.4 trillion (+19.7% YoY)
🔹️Spot — $6.99 trillion (almost zero growth compared to 2024)
🔍 CryptoQuant says it directly: it's not that spot is dead, but derivatives are explosively growing. People are going into leverage, perps, hedges — because why buy BTC when you can 100x on it? 🚀
