The Solana-based meme coin Book of Meme (BOME) has surged by 23% in the past week, making it the top-performing asset among the top 100 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization during this period.

The price rally over the past week has also led to an uptick in activity in its derivatives market.

Book of Meme Futures Traders Bet on Price Growth

Book of Meme’s (BOME) futures market has seen an uptick in trading activity over the past week due to the price rally. The market has witnessed an influx of traders, as evidenced by its rising open interest.

An asset’s futures open interest represents the total number of active contracts that haven’t been settled. A spike in open interest indicates that more traders are taking new positions.

At press time, the meme coin’s futures open interest is $109.22 million, rising by over 100% over the past seven days. According to Coinglass, it has reached its highest point in the last 30 days. 

Further, the traders opening new positions in the BOME futures market are mostly demanding long positions. This trend is evident from the meme coin’s positive funding rate across cryptocurrency exchanges. Currently, the token’s funding rate stands at 0.0029%.
