XRP Leads Bitcoin and Ether in Upbit Trading Volume

XRP recorded higher spot trading volume than bitcoin and ether on Upbit, South Korea’s largest crypto exchange, according to snapshots reported by Bitcoin.com News.

The first snapshot, circulated yesterday evening in U.S. time, showed $145.57 million in 24-hour volume for XRP’s Korean won pair. That represented 11.74% of the exchange’s total trading volume.

A second snapshot taken more than seven hours later again placed XRP at the top. Its price subsequently moved lower, despite its lead in trading activity.
