A quick update on CEX volume ▶️ Crypto.com is on track to surpass its Dec 22 spot trading volume of 31.9b (a 19-month record), beating major competitors like KuCoin and Kraken. Ranking up from spot 11, Crypto.com is now the 9th largest crypto exchange in terms of spot volume, with a little bit over 3 percent of global spot volume (for context, the 2nd largest exchange, UpBit, has over 8.2 percent global volume). 💪 The market continues to be volatile, with flash crashes, sudden recovery, and prolonged consolidation after the early Jan ETF approval by the SEC. #Cryptocom has capitalised on this opportunity by recording 28.28b in volume (excluding derivatives) for the month of January so far. 💱 However, the data is incomplete, with more than a week to go until the end of the month. We should comfortably reach over 33b in spot volume based on the exchange's performance and market participants' behaviour so far. 📈 Crypto.com (28.28b) has also been able to pull more ahead of its major competitors like Kraken (24.49b) and KuCoin (24.79b), confirming the breakout from Dec 22. When compared, the CDC now has the largest share of the spot market out of the three, leading by over 4 percent. To catch up, both Kraken and KuCoin would need extra 3-4 trading days. More interestingly, CDC spot volume continues to increase MoM, and Crypto.com is now in hot pursuit of Gate.io, which has over 2 percent lead in terms of market share (down from over a 12 percent lead in Dec 22). Gate.io is the 8th largest crypto exchange by spot trade volume. It has recorded 31.7b spot volume for the month of January so far (over 3b lead ahead of CDC). #crofam #cronoschain #cryptocurrency #CEX #cryptocommunity #cryptorevolution #cryptocurrencynews #cryptoX #cryptotrading

#Bitcoin Classic choppy weekend price action. Actually had some good moves though for anyone that wanted to trade this. Let's see if we'll indeed end the day around the $42K region as that was the price level where the CME Futures & $BTC ETFs closed at.
