Binance Leads Exchange Volumes with 8x Coinbase’s Volume: Here’s Why This Matters for Bitcoin Price

Binance continues to assert its dominance in the crypto market, with its spot trading volume again outpacing all other exchanges combined. 

Per CryptoQuant data, the platform’s trading volume is currently eight times larger than Coinbase’s, a clear indication of its unmatched market influence. Despite a broader decline in overall spot volumes across exchanges, Binance’s position remains unshaken.
Binance’s Leading Role in Global Trading Volumes
Per CryptoQuant, at the beginning of 2024, Binance made headlines by recording a trading volume greater than that of all other exchanges combined. This surge came as Bitcoin reached new all-time highs, showing the close connection between Binance’s trading volume and overall market movements. 

Further, the Binance vs. Other Exchanges BTC Spot Volume Delta indicator, which recently turned positive again, highlights Binance’s continued dominance. 

The last time the indicator was in a similar position was in January 2024, just before Bitcoin saw a significant price increase from $42,000 to $73,000. With this trend reoccurring during bearish market conditions, a similar price reaction from Bitcoin may ensue.

Although Binance’s volume has been steadily outpacing its competitors, the gap between it and Coinbase has narrowed since the start of the year. At that time, Binance’s volume was nearly 19 times larger than Coinbase.
Bitcoin Market Sentiment and Decreased Selling Pressure
Meanwhile, recent market analysis shows a significant decrease in daily Bitcoin selling pressure across top exchanges. Analyst Axel Adler notes that on average, the selling pressure has dropped from 81,000 BTC per day to just 29,000 BTC. 

This shift means that profit-taking, which had been a prominent feature of the market following Bitcoin’s breakout above $100,000, is now subsiding. 

As a result, fewer sellers are active in the market, and buyers seem to be more comfortable at current price levels. According to Adler, this drop in selling activity may set the stage for a structural supply shortage in the coming months.

Ultimately, this decline in selling pressure suggests that the market has effectively absorbed recent profit-taking, with demand now showing signs of asymmetry. 

Adler notes that the upcoming months, specifically April and May, could see a period of consolidation as the market takes a brief pause before the next major price movements.
