CoinGecko and exchange spot data put Bitcoin (BTC) at $77,813.00 as of 12:38 UTC Monday, Nov. 2, while separate market readings showed futures trading sharply higher and open interest little changed.

A Monday snapshot taken at 6:37 a.m. ET (11:37 UTC) put crypto futures volume at $111.8 billion over 24 hours, 56% above the previous period. Open interest was near $137.1 billion with little movement. Bitcoin and Ether (ETH) futures open interest also changed little.

Liquidations reached $140.2 million in the same 24-hour window, a 77% increase. Puts accounted for the top three BTC options by trading volume on Deribit during that period.

Friday brought $643 million in net outflows from U.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds, following four consecutive days of inflows. That was the largest one-day net outflow since June.
