Overview
- Total trading volume at $564.8 million, which is about 4 times higher than the average Sunday volume (avg. taken over last four months).
- Yesterday’s high volume was caused by rising Bitcoin and Ethereum prices, today’s high volume was fueled by price declines. Bitcoin closed down 6.1% over USD and Ethereum down 4.0%. Ethereum was up 6% in the early part of the day, but in an instance dropped as low as -6%. The bulk of the trading volume occurred during the drop.
- There was a wide mix of mainly negative returns for cryptos over USD. Bitcoin Cash fell 11%; some of the bigger names (XRP, USDT, and LINK) all had less than 1% losses.

Trading Volume by Asset
The figures below break down the trading volume of the largest, mid-size, and smallest assets. Cryptos are in purple, fiats are in blue. For each asset, the chart contains the daily trading volume in USD, and the percentage of the total trading volume. The percentages for fiats and cryptos are treated separately, so that they both add up to 100%.

Figure 2: Mid-size trading assets: (measured in USD) (August 02 2020)
Figure 3: Smallest trading assets: (measured in USD) (August 02 2020)
Spread %
Spread percentage is the width of the bid/ask spread divided by the bid/ask midpoint. The values are generated by taking the median spread percentage over each minute, then the average of the medians over the day.
