Binance, the top dog in crypto trading volumes, is losing its grip as its market share drops to 40% in 2023 from 62% just a year ago.

A study by 0xScope points to Binance's listing strategy as a possible cause, with most coins taking a hit after joining the exchange.

Meanwhile, Upbit, a South Korean exchange, tripled its share to 15.3% in the same period.

Considering all crypto trading, Binance still leads with 51.2% in October 2023, but that's down from 54.6% a year earlier, indicating rivals like OKX are gaining ground.

• The rise of exchanges like Bybit, Bitget, and MEXC Global, which 0xScope dubbed " second-tier, " is shaking things up. With a 42.3% market share, they challenge Binance and OKX.

Huobi and others are now "third-tier" players, highlighting the evolving and competitive crypto trading landscape.

It's a clear reminder of how market dynamics and strategic decisions can flip the script.

Key Takeaways:

• 😬 Binance's once-mighty spot trading throne has taken a serious tumble.

• 🤘 Upbit's epic market share surge screams out how wild and ferocious the spot trading arena can be!
