OKX’s Monthly Nitro Spreads Trading Volume Approaches 5 Billion USDT in March 2024

OKX today announced a significant milestone, reaching a monthly Nitro Spreads trading volume of nearly 5 billion USDT* in March 2024. Since the July 2023 launch of Nitro Spreads, OKX’s Nitro Spreads trading volume has steadily increased, exceeding 2 billion USDT in February 2024. Nitro Spreads, a venue within OKX’s Liquid Marketplace for executing basis, futures spreads and funding rate arbitrage strategies, has also seen a month-over-month increase in executions since December 2023, peaking at nearly 500,000 in March 2024.

In addition, OKX’s daily Nitro Spreads trading volume recently surpassed an all-time high of 415.5 million USDT on February 29 (SGT). Furthermore, the week spanning from February 29 to March 6 concluded with a Nitro Spreads trading volume of USD 1.7 billion, setting a new weekly record.

The recent approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF has boosted activity in the crypto market, with Bitcoin soaring to USD 73,750 on March 14. This increased activity has contributed significantly to OKX’s high BTC futures Open Interest (OI) figures, and solidifies OKX’s Liquid Marketplace as one of the go-to venues for institutional traders looking to take advantage of superior liquidity for a range of trades.
