Crypto exchanges trading volumes decline, Binance is still in charge
Crypto exchanges have reported an $805 billion monthly spot exchange volume of the significant markets in December 2022. Compared to $371 billion in November, the amount accounts for a 54% decline.
This year, Binance accounted for fifty-four percent of all spot exchanges trading volumes, leading the centralized cryptocurrency exchanges market. Last year, Binance, one of the world’s major cryptocurrency exchanges, was responsible for $7.7 trillion in cryptocurrency trading volume.
Since launching its coin, BNB, the fifth most important cryptocurrency by market value behind Bitcoin, Ethereum, USD Tether, and Cardano, Binance has offered one of the most comprehensive offerings of alternative coins on its marketplace.
Investigations into money laundering and tax violations in the US and UK have partly hurt Binance. Customers of certain banks are not permitted to pay money to the crypto ramp. Thailand, China, and Japan all have similar restrictions in place.
