pDEX is a different kind of exchange. It’s non-custodial, decentralized, and completely private.
It also facilitates instant matches by means of an automated market-making mechanism, and offers a chance for anyone to become a liquidity provider, list their own trading pairs, and earn a percentage of trading fees.
pDEX is the privacy-focused, inter-blockchain and instant-matching rendition of Nick Johnson and Vitalik Buterin’s conversations on Reddit circa 2016, and Hayden Adam’s implementation of Uniswap in 2018.

TOP 15 Cryptocurrencies according to Coinbase users
Coinbase provides three interesting trading signals for its users. These are typical hold time, popularity on Coinbase and trading activity.
As can be seen on the infographic, the Typical Hold Time has increased in almost all cases despite of crypto market losing 50 Billions in the Market Capitalization from the time we did the previous post.
Note: Typical hold time is the median time that Coinbase customers hold the coin before selling it or sending it to another account or address.
ZRX remains to be the leader with 135 days of holding period. LTC, ETH, ETC still have the holding period > 100 days. BTC remains to be the most popular crypto according to the stats and 13 first positions in the list remained stable. Tezos XTZ has entered the TOP 15 list ahead of USD Coin (USDC) this month. While Augur (REP) has lost 2 positions and didn`t make it to the top 15 list this time.

TOP 15 Blockchains platforms by daily active addresses (November and October average)
One of the ways to measure the month to month usage of the blockchain platform is to check the amount of average daily active addresses.
"Active addresses are unique addresses that were active in the network (either as a recipient or originator of a ledger change) that day. All parties in a ledger change action (recipients and originators) are counted. Individual addresses are not double-counted if previously active."
According to the infographic, Bitcoin remains to be the leader. Unexpectedly, Digibyte has taken the second place in the list this month, the number of active addresses has skyrocketed in November by striking 2065%. We also observed the upsurge in the amount of Digibyte daily active addresses back in October, as can be checked in our previous post.
Overall, the usage of Digibyte is very inconsistent according to the data. For instance, anomaly usage of Digibyte addresses was observed from 12 to 22nd of November with the peak at 4.3 million addresses on the 15th of November, while the most common number of active users was around 5k daily during most of the analyzed period.
Ethereum Classic holds the third position in November having more active addresses than Ethereum. Back in October, Ethereum Classic daily active addresses have soared by 580% and overtook Ethereum by the number of active daily addresses.
Overall, we can see that 10 out of 15 analyzed platforms have experienced an increase in the amount of daily active addresses in November, Decred, Cardano, and Ripple are among the leaders. This is an interesting observation given the major price drop in November.
