    Despite being a year long bear market, over $2 trillion worth of bitcoin was traded in 2018.


    Percent change is calculated using year ahead-year prior. Utilizing traditional year prior-year ahead calc:2018: 153%2017: 2,666%2016: 154%2015: 35%

    I'd like to know how the calculation is done cause when you send bitcoin you spend all the bitcoins in the utxo even though you just want to send a tiny part of it.

    It sounds like you're referring to on-block transaction volume, not off-block trading volume. Transaction volume (value of STXOs) occurs on blocks using bitcoin's decentralized network. Trading volume occurs off blocks using centralized exchange platforms.

    End of conversation

    Thanks to derivatives so they traded every holders bitcoin multiple times. Sounds like gold and silver market

    Derivs, and by that I mean mostly (shout out to ), certainly account for a meaningful percentage of total volumes. Although generally account for less than 30% of total volume, with the rest being spot volume.We see further growth ahead, however.
