Trading volumes on the Huobi and Bitfinex exchanges fell 82% and 75%, respectively. The figure was down 56% on the Gemini exchange after it restricted payments to its customers.

Trading volumes on Binance dropped 60%. Also, trading volumes on BitMEX, Binance US, Coinbase, Kraken and KuCoin platforms fell by more than half.

In addition to the reduction in trading on centralized platforms, Kaiko analysts noted a decrease in trading activity on the DEX platform Uniswap V3. The trading volume on it at the time of the FTX crash exceeded $4 billion, since then it has fallen to less than $1 billion.
