According to a tweet from Skew analytics firm, the total value of open interest in Bitcoin futures settled in cash has soared beyond a new all-time high level of $1 bln on Chicago Mercantile Exchange run by CME Group.

Bitcoin futures OI on CME spikes to a new ATH

CME was the first platform to launch Bitcoin futures for institutional players in December 2017. A rise above the $1 bln mark has been achieved after the recent spike of Bitcoin.

An inflow of funds from financial institutions is likely to show their positive attitude to the continuation of the current Bitcoin rally above the $18,000 level.
