Interpreting coverage and execution quality
Volume mix: KRW is the largest tracked quote currency at about 99.9% of measured flow. Data scope: 472 tickers observed, with spread readings on 300 markets. Trust rank is best read as a positioning cue, and 24h BTC volume complements it with recent activity scale. Coverage describes how many active pairs and tradable assets are available, which influences routing options and price discovery. Concentration helps explain whether liquidity is diversified or tied to a handful of dominant pairs. Median spread represents the typical bid ask gap on leading markets and often aligns with day to day execution cost. A broad pair list usually improves routing flexibility, but pricing quality still depends on where volume concentrates. A good read is to pair these metrics with the top pairs panel and the volume chart to understand both structure and recent behavior.
