Based on information from CoinMarketCap, approximately 7.51% of its price decrease occurred on April 10. After several days of minimal price changes between $676 and $691, there was a significant drop.
The price of Bitcoin Cash (BCH) fell by 13% in sync with the decrease in open interest, as indicated by CoinMarketCap. Most of its price decrease occurred on April 10, marked by a sudden decline of 7.51% within a three-day span after a prolonged period of minimal price changes between $676 and $691.
In the seven days after its first halving in 2000, the market dynamics took a drastic turn. Back then, the Open Interest (OI) rose by 10%, amounting to $73.86 million. On the other hand, Bitcoin Cash experienced a more modest growth of 4.7%.
