How to read the key metrics
Volume mix: USDC is the largest tracked quote currency at about 32.7% of measured flow. Data scope: 479 tickers observed, with spread readings on 299 markets. Trust rank provides a quick placement within a broad group of venues, and 24h BTC volume helps you gauge current activity. Coverage describes how many active pairs and tradable assets are available, which influences routing options and price discovery. Concentration indicates how much of the venue depends on its leaders versus a wider set of pairs. Median spread captures the common bid ask distance on top books and helps set expectations for market orders and tight limits. A broad pair list usually improves routing flexibility, but pricing quality still depends on where volume concentrates. When comparing venues, weigh breadth, concentration, spreads, and the key pairs list to match the venue to your execution style.
