How to read the key metrics
Volume mix: AAVE is the largest tracked quote currency at about 72.5% of measured flow. Data scope: 132 tickers observed, with spread readings on 132 markets. Trust rank is a comparative marker across venues, while 24h BTC volume gives a practical sense of recent turnover. Coverage captures breadth across pairs and assets, which affects how resilient liquidity can be under changing demand. Concentration indicates how much of the venue depends on its leaders versus a wider set of pairs. Median spread summarizes typical distance between bid and ask on the most active books and is a useful proxy for execution friction. A high top ten share suggests the venue is leader driven, so secondary pairs may react more during volatility. To evaluate fit, use coverage, concentration, spreads, and the leading pairs list together, especially if you rely on fast fills.
