Understanding activity and pricing
Volume mix: KRW is the largest tracked quote currency at about 99.9% of measured flow. Data scope: 678 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 captures breadth across pairs and assets, which affects how resilient liquidity can be under changing demand. Concentration tells you if activity is focused on a few markets or distributed across many pairs. Median spread summarizes typical distance between bid and ask on the most active books and is a useful proxy for execution friction. A broad pair list usually improves routing flexibility, but pricing quality still depends on where volume concentrates. To evaluate fit, use coverage, concentration, spreads, and the leading pairs list together, especially if you rely on fast fills.
