Bitstamp, the leading European exchange, had only a 6% share.Meanwhile, Binance, the leading cryptocurrency trading platform across the globe, was actually negative on net volume delta, which essentially means that Binance traders were selling more than they were actually buying.The recent data is not particularly surprising given that the token's enormous Q4 price rally was also driven by South Korea. Local traders disproportionately accounted for roughly a third of XRP's spot trading volume.South Korean traders are famously keen on altcoin trading since crypto is seen as a shortcut to quick wealth. It is worth noting that the country has a rather strong culture of speculation that predates crypto, and younger investors are now chasing high-reward opportunities with riskier coins.Altcoins account for nearly 90% of trading volume on local exchanges, in sharp contrast to U.S.-based trading platforms.<h2 id="xrp-s-rally-stalls">XRP's rally stalls</h2>On Friday, XRP spiked to nearly $3 on the Bitstamp exchange. Since then, however, the rally has seemingly stalled, with the token currently changing hands at $2.79.As reported by U.Today, some of the leading technical analysts believe that the token still has a lot of growth potential.<a href="https://u.today/xrps-massive-rally-driven-almost-entirely-by-just-one-exchange" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Read original article on U.Today</a>
