Shiba Inu continues to see rising uncertainty across its spot and derivatives market as its recent weak price move has fueled a negative trend in its futures activity.
While the Shiba Inu derivatives market has failed to show any sign of recovery, sentiments are turning extremely bullish, and futures traders appear to be increasingly closing existing positions as they begin to lose faith in SHIB’s price potential.
SHIB futures traders exit market
According to data from CoinGlass, the Shiba Inu open interest has declined by 6.28% over the last 24 hours, suggesting that traders have significantly withdrawn their positions as market fear on the meme token begins to intensify.
Although Shiba Inu had seen its total active futures contracts exceed the 10 trillion range earlier this week, the consistent downturns seen during the week have pulled the total number of active Shiba Inu futures contracts down to 8.59 trillion SHIB as of Saturday, April 4.
