Summary
The Block's "Futures Volume by Asset" page presents monthly futures volumes for the 20 assets with the highest cumulative historical futures volume. The chart aggregates monthly volume across all exchanges, broken down by asset, and is offered with downloadable datasets, deeper coverage, and API access. The page does not include specific volume figures in the text provided, so the underlying values are only available through the interactive chart.
The page links to a set of related futures datasets. The Block's own series cover aggregated open interest in Bitcoin futures, Bitcoin futures volume, and the share of open interest across Bitcoin futures venues. Additional linked data includes BTC funding rates on a 7-day moving average and annualized percentage yield from Coinglass, along with CME Bitcoin futures volume and open interest, large open interest holders, and open interest by trader category (long and short) from the CFTC Commitments of Traders report.
The surrounding site content on the same date included crypto-focused business news. Trump Media reported a $410 million profit for Q3, driven by crypto gains, and Securitize shares rose 12% in after-hours trading following Q3 results and a River One acquisition agreement. MARA reported a $634 million Q3 net profit on bitcoin gains and sold 13,597 BTC to pay down loans. These items are unrelated to the futures volume dataset itself and are noted only as page context.
