Liquidity is the new standard.
Exchanges that facilitate ample amounts of ablution trading will booty a assault in CoinMarketCap’s new rankings acknowledgment to its new “Liquidity” metric.
In the cryptocurrency industry, trading aggregate absent its amount as an able metric to rank exchanges and, consequently, agenda assets. As a result, CoinMarketCap is planning to about-face over to a new barometer that will accommodate “real trading activity,” according to the firm’s Chief Strategy Officer Carylyne Chan.
Rankings by Liquidity
CoinMarketCap faced cogent backfire beforehand this year afterwards a address from Bitwise claimed that 95 percent of the trading aggregate appear by this armpit was fake. Since then, the crypto abstracts belvedere apprenticed to advance the bearings as new studies approved the boundless prevalence of ablution trading.
Last month, the aggregation alien “Liquidity,” a new metric that aims to action affected trading volumes. By demography into application order-book abyss changes and ambit from mid-price, Liquidity is able to analyze amid the best aqueous exchanges and cryptocurrencies.
In a contempo interview, Carylyne Chan affirmed that there is activity to be a desperate change in the accepted rankings on CoinMarketCap — clamminess will become the absence metric instead of volume. Given that CoinMarketCap is the baton in rankings, added sites like CoinGecko may follow.
“There are some big differences. If we attending at the top 50 exchanges by aggregate (as against to liquidity) abounding of them accept attempt back. And, the ones you doubtable accept aerial clamminess are on the clamminess list,” explained Chan.

“It creates about speaking a accessible good, because again bodies will be able to barter better, they will be able to get a added authentic compassionate of what the absolute prices beyond the apple are for the asset they’re aggravating to trade. The focus on clamminess will accomplish the accomplished bazaar added able in general.”
Chan maintains that bodies cannot be abhorrent for this blazon of abstruse action because they will consistently try to bold the system.
“If you accept a ranking, bodies are activity to try and bold that ranking. So it’s on us to amount out how to advance this so that we can accomplish this bazaar added efficient,” added Chan.
It charcoal to be apparent if the new alignment will absolutely serve to accommodate absolute insights about the cryptocurrency industry, and how CoinMarketCap will anticipate bad actors from bypassing the system.
