Our own 15-minute snapshots of Bybit's linear contracts since Jun-11 2026: on Oct-22 2026 our panel held 901 of them and $6.01B in open bets, one side.
901 contracts 625 crypto + 276 TradFi (stocks, ETFs, FX, energy) · Bybit, Oct-22 2026, measured and published by askthetape.com.
A crypto exchange lists far more than bitcoin. On Oct-22 2026 our panel of Bybit held 901 contracts: 625 on crypto (36 of them dated futures that expire, 67 settled in USDC instead of USDT) and 276 on traditional markets — 217 stocks, 55 ETFs, 3 currency pairs and Brent Crude Oil — by Bybit's own labels. We take a 15-minute snapshot of each contract in the panel and keep the day's last one. The charts show how many there are and how much money sits in open bets for crypto and for TradFi; the tables under them name the contracts where that money moved most on the last closed day, and split the TradFi side by what it tracks. Gold, silver, WTI oil and six stock and fund books (MSTR, NVDA, QQQ, TSLA, SPY, COIN) are read apart, on /m/tradfi-perps/.
| leg | own daily panel of Bybit's linear contracts (15-minute capture, last snapshot of the UTC day) — file feed `wide_*`: price, funding, open interest, spread and basis for every contract in the snapshot, 96 snapshots on a full day |
|---|---|
| 🩸 open interest: one side | 🩸 ONE SIDE (Bybit's own singleOpenInterest) EVERYWHERE — one convention across the whole site, not per page. Bybit and Hyperliquid count BOTH sides of every contract in their public field, so both are halved. Bybit: checked again on the live handles 2026-09-12, openInterest / singleOpenInterest = 2.000000 on all seven symbols probed (BTC, SOL, HYPE, UNI and the TradFi books XAUT, SPX, TSLA — the exchange's convention, not one market's). Hyperliquid reports two-sided open interest — its own note of 2026-09-23: «Two-sided OI is calculated as the sum of long and short positions» — and our own record of its positions agrees: on no market do the tracked longs reach much past half of the field. We halve it to one side, like the other venues. The correction runs over the WHOLE history — neither field has ever been one-sided, so there is no seam to date; until this correction, Hyperliquid was printed here at both sides. This panel carries the same two-sided field and is halved over its whole history. There is no seam on 2026-09-12 in the capture itself — the crypto total moved ×1.016 from Sep-11 to Sep-12; that date is when the site changed its convention, not when the feed changed. |
| 🩸 what the panel is not | 36 of the 901 contracts on 2026-10-22 are dated futures (they expire), not perpetuals, and 67 are settled in USDC. Eleven Bybit books are not in this panel at all: gold (XAU, and XAUT in both margins), silver, WTI oil and six stock and fund books (MSTR, NVDA, QQQ, TSLA, SPY, COIN). Our poller records them apart every 5 minutes, together with the dated gold futures: 15 contracts that held $227.3M in open bets on 2026-10-22, one side — next to $247.1M for the whole TradFi side of this panel. |
| policy | Classes are Bybit's own labels: in its instrument list (symbolType, all three lists (Trading, PreLaunch, Delivering) read) stock, ETF, forex and commodity count as TradFi, everything else as crypto. A contract missing from all three would fall back to the names Binance lists as TRADIFI_PERPETUAL (on 2026-10-22: BTCUSDT-23OCT26, DOGEUSDT-23OCT26, ETHUSDT-23OCT26, HYPEUSDT-23OCT26, MNTUSDT-23OCT26, SOLUSDT-23OCT26, XRPUSDT-23OCT26). The books, prices and money on this page are all Bybit's; names are Bybit's own, and only the split of commodities into metals and energy is ours. · export: whole history |
