Some interesting statistics about cryptocurrency trading around the world.

Global Market Capitalization. As of my last knowledge update in September 2023, the total market capitalization of cryptocurrencies was once over $2 trillion. This value represents the combined market value of all cryptocurrencies in circulation.

Asia has the largest number of crypto users globally, with 160 million users
Aside from Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Tether. The top-performing exchange native tokens are Bitget BGB, Okx token, and BNB. There are over 20,000 cryptocurrencies in circulation, and approximately 200,000 Bitcoin transactions occur daily as of September 2023.

Bitcoin Dominance. Bitcoin has traditionally held the largest market share among cryptocurrencies. As of September 2023, Bitcoin's dominance ratio was around 40-50%, meaning it accounted for about 40-50% of the total cryptocurrency market capitalization.

Trading Volume Cryptocurrency. trading volumes can be substantial. On popular exchanges like Bitget Binance and a few others, daily trading volumes can reach billions or even tens of billions of dollars. These volumes fluctuate depending on market conditions, news events, and investor sentiment.

Geographical Distribution. Cryptocurrency trading is global, with participation from various regions. As of September 2023, countries such as the United States, South Korea, Japan, China, and several European nations were known for their significant cryptocurrency trading activities.

Regulatory Landscape. Regulatory approaches to cryptocurrencies vary across countries. Some nations have embraced cryptocurrencies and established regulatory frameworks to govern their use and trading, while others have taken more cautious or restrictive approaches. The regulatory landscape continues to evolve as governments assess and update their policies.

Retail vs. Institutional Trading. Cryptocurrency trading involves participation from both retail investors (individuals) and institutional investors (such as hedge funds, asset managers, and corporations). Over time, institutional involvement has increased, with some traditional financial institutions offering cryptocurrency trading services to their clients.

Derivatives and Futures. The cryptocurrency derivatives market has grown significantly. Exchanges like Bitget now offer various derivatives products, including futures contracts, Copy trading, options, and swaps. These products allow traders to speculate on the price movements of cryptocurrencies without owning the underlying assets.

Decentralized Exchanges (DEXs). Decentralized exchanges have gained popularity, allowing individuals to trade cryptocurrencies directly from their wallets without the need for intermediaries. DEXs operate on blockchain networks and offer enhanced privacy and control over funds.

Stablecoins The use of stablecoins, cryptocurrencies pegged to the value of traditional fiat currencies, has increased. Stablecoins aim to provide price stability and serve as a bridge between cryptocurrencies and traditional financial systems.

DeFi (Decentralized Finance). The rise of decentralized finance has introduced new trading opportunities and platforms. DeFi protocols allow users to lend, borrow, trade, and earn interest on cryptocurrencies in a decentralized manner, without relying on traditional financial intermediaries.

Interesting info here; it corroborates the info on other crypto media. Overall, it's worthy to note that there's been improvement in acceptability of crypto and adoption. Also, people are beginning to realize that crypto investment and trading can actually be used as a hedge against economic inflation globally. 

There's also the fact that BTC might not be the spotlight of crypto HODL and trading these days with BGB and OP making some good gains in the last 3 quarters.

One Interesting Fact about Crypto (Bitcoin) is A man in Florida paid 10,000 bitcoins for two Papa John’s pizzas on May 22, 2010. This was the first Bitcoin payment for goods, and it was worth around $40 at the time. This is widely acknowledged as the first commercial bitcoin transaction. You’d be a #bitcoin millionaire if you had that many bitcoins in September 2022. 10,000 bitcoins are worth more than $190 million in the market.

To be honest, the crypto landscape is the fastest evolving landscape in recent human existence with lots of positives and negatives. The introduction of regulation is one that is much needed given the recent hack and scam in the world of crypto ranging from the immemorable Terra Luna crash, FTX saga, 3AC bankruptcy and Voyager insolvency crisis. It's therefore imperative for government to find a way to protect investors assets on exchanges. For me, regulation is a welcome development and should be embraced by all exchanges as already accepted by coinbase and Bitget amongst others.
