The current situation poses serious challenges for the entire industry, including exchanges.

Decreased Liquidity and Trading Volumes: With Bitcoin the primary focus, altcoin trading volumes are declining. For exchanges, especially those whose business models relied heavily on fees from active altcoin trading, this could directly impact revenue.

Increased Risks for Projects and Exchanges: Amid a capital shortage, new and even established altcoin projects could face difficulties, and some could even cease support altogether, as happened with Kadena (KDA). For exchanges, this increases the risk of delisting non-viable assets and potential losses.

Rising Cyber ​​Threats: Amid general instability, cybercriminals are becoming more active. BlackBerry warned of targeted hacker attacks on crypto exchanges in Mexico using modified remote access software. Such incidents not only cause direct financial losses but also undermine user trust.
