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 1: Largest trading assets: trading volume (measured in USD) and its percentage of the total trading volume (November 17 2020)



Figure 2: Mid-size trading assets: (measured in USD) (November 17 2020)



Figure 3: Smallest trading assets: (measured in USD) (November 17 2020)
