Spot Trading Volume Increased by 18.64% and Contract Trading Volume Increased by 10.89% in August 2026
Prefer us on GoogleIn August 2026, the spot trading volume of major centralized exchanges (CEX) rose by 18.64% compared to July, while perpetual contract trading volume increased by 10.89%. The significant growth in spot trading indicates that the market's recovery is primarily driven by spot demand. In August, the website traffic of major CEXs decreased by 0.26% compared to July, and downloads fell by 5.61%. The rebound in trading volume, despite the lack of synchronized growth in external traffic, may suggest that the increase in trading activity is mainly due to the improved trading frequency and conversion efficiency of existing users, rather than a large influx of new users and external traffic. The perpetual contract trading volume of major perpetual decentralized exchanges (Perp DEX) rose by 8.98% in August compared to July, with no significant change in website traffic. Some data may raise suspicions of wash trading or bot activity. The spot and derivatives data are sourced from Coingecko, while traffic data comes from Similarweb, and download data is sourced from Diandian platform.
