> Ethereum options open interest rose 3.75% to $6.27 billion. Calls held the majority of outstanding positions and daily volume, led in trading by Bybit’s October 25 $2,750 call.

Ethereum options open interest rose 3.75% from the previous day to $6.27 billion. Calls dominated both outstanding positions and daily trading, with the October 25 $2,750 call on Bybit leading volume.

Call options accounted for the larger share of both accumulated positions and short-term activity, showing a consistent preference across the two measures.

CoinGlass data as of 00:50 UTC on October 24 showed total Ethereum options open interest of $6.27 billion, up from $6.04 billion the previous day. Options trading volume totaled approximately $1.61 billion.

Calls represented 63.16% of open interest, compared with 36.84% for puts. Across 24-hour trading volume, calls accounted for 63.66% and puts for 36.34%.

The open-interest mix showed more outstanding exposure in calls, while their larger share of volume indicated that daily trading also favored calls. These shares alone do not establish the direction of investors’ underlying positions.

The largest contracts by open interest were, in order, Deribit’s December 25 $3,200 call, December 25 $2,200 call and October 30 $2,600 call.

[Editor’s note] Options are derivatives used to take leveraged exposure to an underlying asset or hedge existing positions. A call gives its holder the right to buy at a predetermined price, while a put gives the right to sell, subject to the contract’s terms. Open interest measures outstanding contracts and indicates the accumulated size of positions.

Call and put shares, together with changes in open interest and volume, help distinguish accumulated exposure from daily trading activity. Rising open interest indicates an increase in outstanding contracts, but does not by itself establish a bullish outlook. Differences between the open-interest mix and trading-volume mix can also reflect hedging or demand for exposure to volatility.
