AI visual note: The chart titled "Binance - Futures / Spot Volume Ratio" tracks BTC Price (USD) against the Spot to Futures Ratio from January 2020 to mid-2026, with the ratio (shown in red) spiking near 8 and the BTC price climbing to roughly $120K. It visually supports the post's claim by showing the futures/spot ratio approaching its all-time high, indicating that derivatives activity on Binance is now dwarfing spot trading far more than at any prior point—including during the 2021 and 2023 peaks.
