Hi @ANgelaH Thank you for the monthly update, may I know if the volume drop is less or more than the general market drop?

Hi @ANgelaH and @benyorke.eth I’m still interested to know how $FX fair against the market. It’s expected that volume dropped past months but is it better or worse than market?

Possible if the team reach out to Angela or Ben?

Thanks for raising the question. I took the trading data from Coingecko and calculated BTC trading vol for the last two months. The average daily volume (ADV) dropped from $76b to $19b (Nov to Dec) which is approximately 75% down. I hope you find this info helpful.

Thanks Angela

It’s nice to know that FX trading volume drop was so much smaller compared to the broarder market (btc).
