Crypto Open Interest API

healthy 4,978 Subscribers

Live open-interest history and trend for crypto perpetual futures, served from the Bybit v5 feed. Open interest is the total value of outstanding contracts — its trend, rising or falling alongside price, is the signal traders use to confirm a move or spot a squeeze. For any USDT perpetual this returns the latest open interest in contracts and in USD, how it has changed over your chosen window, the rising / falling / flat trend, and the full time-series across 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 4h and 1d buckets. Look a contract up by symbol (BTCUSDT) or base coin (BTC), pull its open-interest history, or list every tradable perpetual. Live data, no cache. Distinct from a funding-rate API (which carries the rate snapshot) and from price / ticker APIs — this is the open-interest time-series and trend layer.

Crypto Derivatives Exchanges API

Live ranking and directory of crypto derivatives venues — the platforms that run perpetual and futures markets — served from the public CoinGecko feed with no key and nothing cached. This is a venue-level view of the derivatives market, distinct from spot-exchange directories, per-contract open-interest feeds and single-exchange tickers: it ranks the derivatives platforms themselves. The exchanges endpoint returns the venues ranked by open interest (or by 24-hour volume), each with its open interest in BTC, 24-hour derivatives volume in BTC, the number of perpetual and futures pairs it lists, its country and the year it was established — so one call tells you who the biggest derivatives venues are and how concentrated open interest is. The exchange endpoint returns a single venue's full profile by id. The list endpoint returns every derivatives-exchange id and name for lookup and autocomplete. Everything is read live from CoinGecko on each request, nothing stored beyond a short protective cache. Ideal for derivatives dashboards, open-interest and market-structure analytics, venue comparison and trading tools. Live, no key. 3 endpoints. For per-contract funding and open-interest history use a derivatives or open-interest API.

Bybit API

Live derivatives and spot market data from Bybit, one of the largest crypto-derivatives exchanges, straight from its public v5 API. Built for perpetual swaps: the ticker returns a contract's last, mark and index price together, the 24-hour change, high, low, volume and turnover, the live open interest in contracts and in USD, and the current funding rate with the next funding time — a whole perp in one call. The funding endpoint returns the historical funding-rate series, the recurring payments that anchor a perp to spot. The openinterest endpoint returns the open-interest time series, the best gauge of leverage building or unwinding. The kline endpoint returns OHLCV candles at any interval. Linear (USDT) perps, inverse (coin) perps and spot are all reachable via the category parameter. Live, no key, nothing stored. Distinct from Coinbase, Bitstamp, OKX, Gate.io, Bitfinex and Gemini venue APIs and from aggregated derivatives feeds — this is Bybit's own ticker, funding history, open interest and candles. Perfect for trading, charting, derivatives-analytics and risk apps.

Crypto Derivatives API

Live cross-exchange perpetual-futures market data — no key, nothing cached. Where single-exchange APIs show one venue, this compares the whole derivatives market across every exchange at once. The contract endpoint takes a symbol (BTCUSDT, ETHUSD) and returns that contract on every exchange that lists it — the mark price, the funding rate, the basis, the open interest and the 24-hour volume on Binance, Bybit, OKX, MEXC, Hyperliquid and the rest side by side, so you can instantly see where funding is richest and where the open interest sits (BTCUSDT trades on dozens of venues with billions in open interest each). The exchanges endpoint is the derivatives-exchange league table, ranked by open interest in BTC, with each venue's 24-hour volume and number of perpetual and futures pairs. The top endpoint surfaces the largest contracts market-wide by open interest or by volume. This is the cross-exchange derivatives layer for any trading, funding-arbitrage, risk or analytics app. Live from CoinGecko, nothing stored. Distinct from single-exchange funding and open-interest APIs — this is the whole perpetual-futures market across exchanges. 4 endpoints.

Bithumb Exchange API

Live spot market data from Bithumb, South Korea's major crypto exchange, served straight from its public order books — no key on the data, nothing cached, nothing stored. Look up any market for its last price, 24h open/high/low, 24h change and base/quote volume; rank every market for a payment currency (Korean won KRW, or BTC) by 24h turnover; list the tradable coins; or pull live order-book depth with the running spread. Markets are addressed COIN_PAYMENT (BTC_KRW, ETH_BTC). This is the Bithumb venue specifically — a distinct Korean-won price feed, ideal for tracking the "kimchi premium" and KRW price discovery, separate from the USD/USDT-quoted exchange APIs in the catalogue.
