June’s spot volume dropped to a nine-month low of $1.07T.
Declines driven by reduced retail and institutional activity.
May signal caution ahead or shift to decentralized platforms.
In June, centralized crypto exchanges saw their spot trading volume fall to $1.07 trillion, the lowest monthly total in nine months. That’s down significantly from earlier this year’s highs—reflecting a marked slowdown in trading activity.
Why Are Volumes Falling?
Several key factors appear to be weighing on the market:
Muted retail sentiment: With fewer headlines and excitement in crypto, casual investors are trading less frequently.
Institutions on pause: Many may be waiting on clearer regulatory signals or macroeconomic cues.
Decentralized finance (DeFi) alternatives: A growing number of traders are moving to DeFi and DEX platforms, seeking lower fees or yielding strategies.

Implications for Traders and Exchanges
For exchanges, lower volumes mean reduced fee income, potentially limiting innovation or marketing spend. Traders may see wider spreads and less liquidity for large orders. On the flip side, this dip could signal a market reset—setting the stage for a rebound once triggers like regulatory clarity or new assets emerge.
