50% Of All Bitcoin Transactions Found To Be Fake: $262 Billion Of Fake Transactions Across The Globe!
As the world’s largest cryptocurrency nosedives again amid global economic turmoil, it has been reported that more than half of all Bitcoin daily trading volumes are reportedly fake.
50% of Trading Volume Fake
More than 50% of all reported trading volume in the Forbes analysis of 157 crypto exchanges and trading platforms is likely to be fake or non-economic.
As per the report, “We estimate the global daily bitcoin volume for the industry was $128 billion on June 14. That is 51 per cent less than the $262 billion one would get by taking the sum of self-reported volume from multiple sources”.
Out of the $1 trillion global crypto market, 40% is represented by Bitcoin.
As per the reports, even amongst the industry’s most reputable research firms, there is no genuine method of calculating bitcoin daily volume.
The report revealed that “For example, CoinMarketCap puts the latest 24-hour trading of bitcoin at $32 billion, CoinGecko at $27 billion, Nomics at $57 billion and Messari at $5 billion”.
Speaking of the Bitcoin activity, 21 crypto exchanges generate $1 billion or more in daily trading activity, while the next 33 exchanges had volume between $200 million and $999 million.
Leading the pack with 27% market share is Binance, which is followed by FTX. Chicago-based CME Group is the market leader in bitcoin futures trading.
