Binance experiences a 5% decline in market shares, while OKX and Bybit observe a surge
Binance, the largest cryptocurrency exchange in terms of trading volume, with a daily turnover of 76 billion, has faced numerous challenges in 2023 due to regulatory obstacles, potentially leading to CZ’s departure and a settlement of 4 billion.
According to TokenInsight, a token data rating company, Binance has witnessed a decline of 5% in its market share, while OKX and Bybit are leading the race. Binance’s market share has dropped significantly from 54.2% to 48.7% in 2023.
Despite the dip, Binance remains the leader in the cryptocurrency exchange market. TokenInsight’s report shows that Binance’s market share stood at 54.2% in 2023, but it has since fallen to 48.7%. During the same period, OKX and Bybit experienced increases of 4.3% and 2.2% respectively. The decline in Binance’s market share is not surprising given the challenges it faced in 2023.
The year 2023 proved to be a challenging one for Binance, as the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filed a lawsuit against the exchange and its CEO, Changpeng Zhao, accusing them of security violations. Additionally, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) filed a similar complaint against Binance and Zhao. The Department of Justice (DOJ) also made serious allegations against Binance, including violations of sanctions and failure to comply with anti-money laundering regulations. After much turmoil in the crypto community, Binance agreed to a settlement with the DOJ, accepting a substantial fine of 4.3 billion.
These factors have contributed to a 5% decline in Binance’s market share. However, despite the challenges, Binance continues to stand strong in the world of cryptocurrencies.
