Spot crypto trading volumes have fallen by half since October as liquidity dried up and investor engagement weakened.
Spot crypto trading volumes on major exchanges have fallen from around $2 trillion in October to $1 trillion at the end of January, indicating “clear disengagement from investors” and weaker demand, according to analysts.
Bitcoin (BTC) is currently down 37.5% from its October peak amid a liquidity drought and a major bout of risk aversion, causing volumes to contract.
“Spot demand is drying up,” said CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost on Monday, adding that the correction “has been largely driven by the Oct. 10 liquidation event.”

Welcome to the US Crypto News Morning Briefing—your essential rundown of the most important developments in crypto for the day ahead. Grab a coffee because the firms shaping crypto’s future are not just building products, but also trying to reshape how capital flows. Crypto News of the Day: VanEck Maps Next Frontier of Crypto Venture Investing VanEck, a Wall Street player known for financial “firsts,” is pushing that legacy into Web3. The firsts include pioneering US gold funds and launching one of the earliest spot Bitcoin ETFs. Sponsored Sponsored “Financial instruments have always been a kind of tokenization. From seashells to traveler’s checks, from relational databases to today’s on-chain assets. You could even joke that VanEck’s first gold mutual funds were the original ‘tokenized gold,’” Juan C. Lopez, General Partner at VanEck Ventures, told BeInCrypto. That same instinct drives the firm’s venture bets. Lopez said VanEck goes beyond writing checks and brings the full weight of the firm. This extends from regulatory proximity to product experiments to founders building the next phase of crypto infrastructure. Asked about key investment priorities, Lopez highlighted stablecoins. “We care deeply about three questions: How do we accelerate stablecoin ubiquity? What will users want to do with them once highly distributed? And what net new assets can we construct now that we have sophisticated market infrastructure?” Lopez added.

The VanEck executive also noted that success will depend on new approaches to identity and programmable compliance layered on public blockchains.
