We took a look at the 7-day trading volume for BTC/USD on 10 exchanges to visualize how this volume is distributed. Coinbase dominates as the highest volume BTC/USD market, with Bitinex, Bitstamp, LMAX Digital, and Kraken in step with one another. Will BTC/USD trading volume further consolidate among a small few, or will it disperse as more exchanges step up their fiat-pair offerings?
