🧠 What It Shows

Binance (in yellow) has overwhelming dominance in taker volume since mid-2020, currently around 89.6%.

Bybit (orange) saw early traction but has significantly decreased in dominance.

Deribit (purple), Bitmex (violet), and OKX (blue) maintain very minimal and stable dominance.

The blue line represents BTC's price, which tracks upward momentum from the lows of 2020 to new highs in 2025.

Binance now handles nearly 90% of all BTC taker volume.

📉 Platforms Losing Share

Bybit’s early 2020 rise now looks short-lived, with a sharp decline starting in late 2021.

Bitmex, once dominant in the pre 2020 era, is now almost irrelevant in taker volume.

Deribit and OKX retain niche usage, likely due to options and regional focus.

🟨 Key Insight

Binance has become the dominant force in BTC trading, with taker volume market share approaching 90%.

This indicates traders are increasingly executing orders on Binance rather than other platforms.
