<p>However, it is important to note that Tether (USDT), the flagship stablecoin, dominates the digital assets volume on OKX, with a volume of $5.2 billion and a market share of 41.89%.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="bitfinex-completes-the-top-three-with-11-746-billion-in-assets">Bitfinex completes the top three with $11.746 billion in assets</h2>
<p>Bitfinex, a well-known cryptocurrency exchange, secures the third position in this ranking, holding a total of $11.746 billion in digital assets. Bitcoin is the dominant digital asset on Bitfinex, claiming a significant share of 65.47% of all assets held on the exchange.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Specifically, Bitcoins held on Bitfinex amount to $7.69 billion. LEO, another digital asset, holds the second-highest position on Bitfinex, with a volume of $2.596 billion, representing a market share of 22.1%.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="bitcoin-and-tether-dominate-asset-composition">Bitcoin and Tether dominate asset composition</h2>
<p>Across these top three CEXs, it is evident that Bitcoin and Tether (USDT) are the primary drivers of asset composition. Bitcoin’s widespread presence and dominance as a digital asset are evident as it constitutes a substantial portion of assets held on Binance, OKX, and Bitfinex.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Tether (USDT), on the other hand, emerges as the leading stablecoin, holding a significant portion of assets on OKX and contributing to the overall diversity of digital assets on these exchanges.</p>
<p>Intriguingly, DefiLlama’s data reveals that there has been a negative inflow of digital assets on all three of these top crypto exchanges in the last 24 hours. This suggests that users have been withdrawing their assets from these platforms during this period. Specifically, Binance experienced a withdrawal of $327.85 million in digital assets, OKX saw a decrease of $17.01 million, and Bitfinex users withdrew a significant $42 million in digital assets.</p>
<p>These outflows may indicate various factors, including traders’ desire to secure their assets in private wallets, concerns about the security of funds held on centralized exchanges, or shifts in trading strategies. Nevertheless, it is crucial to monitor these trends and their potential implications for the cryptocurrency market.</p>
