BTC: Perpetual Volume Surge Heatmap (All Assets)

Shown as its 2–31 Oct 2026 sample; the latest readings and full history are included with Plus.

Every coin's perpetual futures volume in each period as a multiple of its own average over the previous 30 days, one row per coin.

Why use it. Volume surges show where traders are suddenly piling in, often before or with a big move; seeing every coin at once shows whether a surge is market-wide or one coin's story. How to read it. Coins run down the side, largest open interest at the top, and time runs across; each cell is one coin in one period. 1 is a normal period for the coin; 3 means three times its usual volume. The summary value is the same ratio for every coin together.

Calculation. Per coin: the period's perpetual volume / the mean of its volume in the same-length periods of the previous 30 days (a coin needs at least seven days of history). An hour appears once it has closed. The open day compares its complete hours with the same hours of the previous 30 days (volume follows the clock), labelled a partial until the day closes. Source: our own minute-by-minute collection of public futures data across every coin with perpetual futures that CryptoKeyhole covers, from Binance, Bybit, OKX, Deribit, Kraken, Bitfinex, Bitget, Gate, Hyperliquid, KuCoin, HTX, Crypto.com and Coinbase (open interest, funding, and the public liquidation feeds we collect), and our own USD price indexes. Each coin counts with the same values its own charts show. The series start on 24 October 2026, the first day our collection held every coin's open interest, funding, liquidations and price; a coin added later joins on the day its collection begins. A period appears once nine in ten of the coins have published it, so the open hour can trail by a few minutes. Venues we do not collect are not included, so totals understate the whole market.
