0xScope’s latest investigation into the ebbs and flows of centralized exchanges (<a href="https://www.cryptopolitan.com/binances-market-share-takes-a-22-hit/" data-type="post" data-id="399144" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CEXs</a>) paints a battlefield where giants grapple for supremacy, emergent contenders rise, and the market constantly shifts under the weight of strategic maneuvers.<a href="https://www.0xscope.com/blog/The-2023-CEX-Market-Report-1721474978107490304/?ch=tw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank"> </a>
This analysis dissects the past year’s skirmishes and reveals a tale of changing tides in a space where dominance is temporary, and complacency can lead to downfall.
The once towering Binance, although still perched atop the CEX hierarchy, sees its market share wane from a zenith of 54% to a humbler 45%.
The challengers to the throne, OKX, Bybit, Bitget, and MEXC, edge closer, carving out their own domains with keen strategies and relentless pursuit of growth.
Amidst this, Huobi and others like Gate and KuCoin, witness their influence wane, as the CEX colosseum remains unforgiving to those unable to adapt.

In the spot trading arena, 0xScope’s data showcases a Binance beset by contenders on all fronts, its market share dwindling from a dominant 62% to a more contested 40%.
The South Korean Upbit makes a notable surge, its market prowess amplified by its domestic economy’s vitality.
Simultaneously, platforms like Coinbase maintain a steady cadence, while Bybit and others nip at Binance’s heels, seizing volume through aggressive listing strategies and appealing to a diverse trading demographic.
Turning to derivatives, Binance’s fort still stands robust but not impenetrable, as its share shrinks subtly from 50.9% to 45%. Here, OKX’s ascension reflects a broader market shift, with its derivatives market share inflating from 10% to a significant 15%.
This sector, dominated by high-stake players, underscores a battlefield where every percentage point in market share is fiercely contested, and strategic innovation is critical for survival.
In the trenches of on-chain data, the spoils of war—assets and deposit addresses—tell another part of this saga. Binance, while still a behemoth in assets under management, sees its share contract by 5%.
This ground is ceded to agile adversaries like OKX and Coinbase, who have bolstered their coffers over the year.
The intricate dance of deposit addresses across exchanges hints at a customer base in flux, with Binance and Coinbase leading but OKX’s rapid growth in new addresses pointing to its burgeoning influence.
The peripheral vision granted by website and social media metrics may not directly correlate to the core performance but provides insight into brand presence and public perception.
Binance’s social following, despite its absolute growth, drops in industry share, a signal, perhaps, of a shifting audience alignment. OKX’s social footprints, by contrast, burgeon, echoing its market advances.
This landscape is no place for the faint-hearted. It demands resilience, innovation, and a critical understanding of the market’s currents. The 0xScope study serves not just as a ledger of the past but as a cartograph for future navigators of the CEX domain.
As the year unfolds, the data underscores a singular truth in the digital currency arena: in a world of relentless competition, the only constant is change.
0xScope’s meticulous analysis of the CEX landscape affirms the vitality of these digital battlegrounds. It tells a story not just of figures and percentages but of strategy, foresight, and the relentless pursuit of dominance in an ever-evolving market.
As the crypto cosmos watches, the centralized exchanges continue their intricate dance of power, with every step and every turn analyzed by the watchful eyes of 0xScope.
