I think the main contributor to Binance had a huge lead in the trading volume over all other exchanges thanks to their main adamant about fake trading volume and washout trade. Binance has expressed many times they'll do anything to curb stomp things like that.
The amazing increasing trade volume on Binance is from their wise strategy to give away trading fee. With 0% trading fee, users have more reasons to trade and when they fall into the trap, trading volume increases organically and sustainably.
This increase recent months is also supported by recover of Bitcoin and crypto market in general. With less fear, people go trading more.
Let's not forget that people do have a tendency to go with the first one and do whatever they can with it. If you were asked to do a trade, would you do it on the exchange that is 1st and more than double the second, or would you prefer the second that has less than half of the trading volume?
This is just a question about first and second, when we consider third and fourth and all others, it's clear that being first means being the best most of the time and the main place people go to. Of course they weren't first at the start, and in order to get there they used both cheap trading fee, but also affiliate income as well, which gave them a huge boost at early days.
Yes, people would go to exchange they thought it was the best out there compared to the other. Unless there are some requirements that you don't meet or you don't trust that exchange, most will goes to the biggest, the top of all fish.
You see, others gave their opinions on my comment. Because Binance has low fees on trading pair or you, saying they're at the top cause they the top, famous because famous, that kind of thing I understand.
But all of you guys have to understand how Binance becomes the #1, the biggest fish out there? Remember Kraken? Bittrex? Poloniex? Why are none of them now at the #1, behind Binance despite they being from the old camp, well-established way before Binance start their business?
Even with the mandatory KYC, people still flock to Binance? Cause I said the fake trading volume and washout trade are the biggest concerns for traders and Binance knew this very well. They opt for their business along it and success, other things are just minor boosts.
