Amid the multi-week decline in XRP price, the asset’s trade volume has continued to witness noticeable surges across the top crypto exchanges.
Despite the prevalent market downtrend that has dampened XRP’s performance over the past few weeks, the asset has continued to attract investor interest. Notably, recent data confirms that XRP’s trade volume has surged across top exchanges.

Altcoin Volume Below Yearly High Despite XRP Win
Undoubtedly, XRP has remained one of the most prominent assets in the cryptocurrency market. The recent legal victory attained by the asset triggered demand not just for it but also for other altcoins.
However, data from market intelligence provider Kaiko suggests that these altcoins are still struggling to hit high trade volumes. Kaiko recently shared a chart depicting the combined monthly trade volume of altcoins, excluding XRP, BTC, and ETH.
Even with the $XRP ruling, altcoin trade volume has struggled to reach levels from earlier this year.

Excluding the trade volumes of BTC, ETH, and XRP, Kaiko reported that the cumulative trade volume of all other altcoins has struggled to reach the yearly high attained earlier this year.
In particular, market data showed that these altcoins’ trade volume rose above $60 billion in April 2023. Despite the favorable ruling on XRP in July, the volume has remained below $20 billion as of August 23.
Recall that the bullish ruling on XRP came on July 13. At the time, XRP recorded a massive price surge that resulted in increased trade volumes on different exchanges.
The Crypto Basic reported that XRP’s overall trade volume crossed the $10B mark on July 13.
Remarkably, South Korean exchanges accounted for a large percentage of this trade volume. As published, over $2.5B XRP tokens were traded across top South Korean exchanges within 24 hours.
