1 Bitcoin $ 5,693,121,845 $ 445.25 12,786,250 BTC $ 2,880,975 -0.89 %

The BTC trade volume is so low since the China squeeze started and the strangling of bank interaction with Chinese exchanges. A significant amount of BTC volume in the last 24hrs must be alt trading and multipools.
Darkcoin is helping to keep BTC volume going at the moment?


edit - trade volume about 3-4 weeks back

We should see more exchanges taking a peek at Darkcoin now. They need the trade. Watch out for BTC China and a few others joining the party

Edit: the past 24 hrs of trade has been $4.68m for top 100 coins except LTC (plenty of mutlipools exchange direct to LTC, LTC alt pairs and LTC $ and Yuan markets), Ripple, Mastercoin and BTC, vs $2.95m for BTC.
So DRK is just under 50% of the 24hrs volume of trade.
We're taking over.
