Title: Where's the volume.
Post by: OrangeGold on March 08, 2014, 07:07:52 PM
I've been trading bit coins for a little over a year now, so I'm not paniced at the current value.

But I have noticed that today almost all exchanges of, not just bit coins, but of most crypto coins (alt coins) have almost no volume!

I'm just wondering if anything weird happened in the news to cause this, I haven't heard anything but I haven't had time to read any news today.

Thanks guys!

I was noticing that as well.  WTF is volume anyway?

Volume is the amount of unites being traded. So 9999999bitcoins per second being traded on the network would be VERY HIGH volume, where as 0.00001 bit coins per day being traded would be VERY LOW volume.
