What other data are known? It is reported that the trading volume was $629,3 billion in June, $632,7 billion in July, and $630 billion in August. Such indicators were seen amid the general decline of the cryptocurrency market. In May, the Terra blockchain ecosystem collapsed due to the loss of the UST stablecoin’s peg to the dollar and the collapse of the LUNA token that backs it. The aftermath of this collapse spread throughout the crypto industry

In August, Chinese analyst Colin Wu’s team recorded a 10% increase in spot trading volume on cryptocurrency exchanges. The figure rose for the first time in months to $1,87 trillion, up from $1,69 trillion in July.
