Binance Bitcoin Leverage Ratio Reaches Highest Level Since November 2025

Binance Bitcoin Leverage Ratio Hits Record High

The Binance Bitcoin Leverage Ratio has reached its highest level since November 2025, according to CryptoQuant analyst Arab Chain. This suggests the market is more prone to liquidations amid rapid upward moves or sudden corrections. Currently, Bitcoin is around $90,000.

Binance's Bitcoin estimated leverage ratio reached 0.182, indicating a significant increase in leverage within the Bitcoin futures market.
A higher leverage ratio means more traders' positions are funded through borrowing, reflecting increased risk appetite among short-term traders.
This could lead to significant price expansion tied to liquidity flow towards the derivatives market.
The spike in ratio correlates with recent price rallies, highlighting how elevated leverage amplifies market volatility and liquidation risks during corrections.
Historical patterns suggest susceptibility to sharp moves, urging caution in leveraged positions.

If Bitcoin consolidates without corrections, elevated leverage could fuel further upward movement. Conversely, weakening momentum might trigger more deleveraging before a broader trend resumes.
