ETH was $2,447.82 on October 20, 2026. The all-exchange leverage ratio was 0.63 on the same date, down 9.35% over 30 days. Binance's ETH reserve was 3.51M ETH on the same date, down 1.28% over 30 days.
Total open interest was $12.09B, down 13.56% over 30 days, and Binance open interest was $5.93B, down 7.46%. Together, these may suggest leverage has reset lower across venues. Binance's own leverage ratio moved the other way, rising 1.18% to 0.70, which may indicate that remaining exposure has concentrated on Binance rather than fully unwinding.
The Coinbase Premium Index held at -0.12, at the 11th percentile of its one-year range. This suggests US spot demand remains soft relative to offshore venues. Staking held at 36.04% of supply, near the top of its one-year range, which may reflect long-term holders keeping supply locked rather than selling.
This file contains no CPI, PPI, rate, or DXY release for the same week, so the macro link cannot be tested here. One candidate explanation, unverified: softer US spot demand may reflect a broadly cautious market tone, but this file does not contain the macro data needed to check it.
Forward-looking signal is weak. Among the ten metrics tracked, the largest correlation with 7-day forward returns is 0.14, so these readings are descriptive rather than predictive. Several 30-day changes in fee-burn and funding series were excluded because their base values are too small to interpret.
"For now, the clearest reading is that leverage has reset lower while US spot demand remains soft, and the next move remains open."
