CryptoCompare: How Liquid Is Digital Asset Liquidity?

Date 09/09/2021

Diving Into The Depths of Digital Asset Liquidity - Research Report & Webinar, in Partnership With Bitstamp. 

Liquidity has historically been an area of acute focus in financial markets as it relates to a range of factors that market participants must consider. But just how liquid is digital asset liquidity and do we have the data to reliably assess this metric in our ever-evolving digital asset landscape?

To take a deep dive into assessing the true liquidity of digital asset exchanges, CryptoCompare has partnered with Bitstamp to produce a first of its kind report


Key Findings Include:
  • In June 2021, Coinbase traded the highest average daily volumes for BTC/USD and ETH/USD markets - $699mn and $595mn respectively, followed by Bitfinex ($405mn and $203mn) and LMAX Digital  ($309mn and $109mn).
  • For a simulated $10k order (buy or sell), LMAX Digital, Bitstamp and Bitfinex produce the lowest mean slippage.
  • Kraken, Bitfinex, Coinbase and Bitstamp have the highest 0.1% and 1% order book depth across both BTC and ETH markets trading into USD and EUR.
  • USD markets have tighter spreads than EUR markets overall, while BTC markets have tighter spreads than ETH markets.
