Frank Chaparro(@fintechfrank):This is super telling. Across five major trading venues, total perpetual futures open interest has fallen 17% over the past year, from $81B to $67B. Yet open interest in RWA perpetuals has surged from virtually zero to $9B, now accounting for 14% of the market. Even as speculative activity in crypto-native assets contracts, traders are increasingly using crypto infrastructure to gain exposure to traditional financial assets.
