How to read the key metrics
Volume mix: USDC is the largest tracked quote currency at about 100.0% of measured flow. Trust rank provides a quick placement within a broad group of venues, and 24h BTC volume helps you gauge current activity. 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 captures the common bid ask distance on top books and helps set expectations for market orders and tight limits. When comparing venues, weigh breadth, concentration, spreads, and the key pairs list to match the venue to your execution style.
