Vilnius, Lithuania, December 20th, 2024, Chainwire
Europe’s leading cryptocurrency exchange, WhiteBIT, concludes the year with notable achievements. The latest estimates reveal the company’s capitalization has reached $38.9 billion, while the annual trading volume surged to $2.7 trillion — a 200% increase compared to the previous year.
For context, WhiteBIT’s trading volume surpassed major players like Kraken, whose annual trading volume stood at $628 billion. WhiteBIT’s trading volume exceeds the GDP of countries like Italy or Canada and approaches the GDP of France, valued at $3 trillion.
According to WhiteBIT Founder and CEO Volodymyr Nosov, this milestone reflects the exchange’s innovative strategies and strategic focus: “Reaching $2.7 trillion is the result of our dedicated teamwork and the trust of our clients. We remain committed to developing cutting-edge technologies tailored to the needs of both retail and institutional traders.”
Top 2 in TrafficIn the fall of 2024, WhiteBIT secured its position as the second-most visited crypto exchange, with 33 million visits to the platform. This achievement positions it just behind Binance, reflecting the steady interest in WhiteBIT’s services.
Key Drivers of GrowthOne of the primary contributors to WhiteBIT’s record trading volume has been the onboarding of institutional clients. The exchange introduced a market maker program tailored to the requirements of large-scale traders. With low fees and rebates as high as -0.01%, the program provided conditions for high-frequency trading, drawing professional traders to the platform. Institutional loans also became a cornerstone for building trust within the professional community, enabling large-scale transactions.
The platform’s technical infrastructure also contributed, with features such as colocation to reduce latency, sub-accounts for strategy diversification, and a robust API supporting its services for institutional clients.
The introduction of a new affiliate program contributed by engaging communities of retail traders, supporting user acquisition, and enhancing trading activity, which played a role in WhiteBIT’s strong performance.
Currently, the exchange serves over 1,300 institutional clients.
Expanding Global ReachToday, over 30 million people worldwide use services and products from the WhiteBIT Group holding. These include the centralized exchange WhiteBIT, the crypto payment solution Whitepay, the decentralized exchange WhiteSwap, the NFT marketplace white.market, and the gaming platform Pocket Rocket. Additionally, WhiteBIT Group encompasses Whitechain, its proprietary blockchain, and WhiteBIT Coin (WBT), which has experienced 349.39% growth over the year.
With 600+ trading pairs and more than 300 digital assets, WhiteBIT continues to strengthen its competitive edge in the global market.
In a recent interview, CEO Volodymyr Nosov confirmed WhiteBIT’s plans to enter the US market.
