London, 26 November 2019 - LMAX Digital, the leading institutional spot crypto currency exchange and part of the LMAX Exchange Group, announced that it started publishing its daily trading spot volumes on the exchange’s website, www.lmaxdigital.com with the aim being to add greater transparency around real spot volumes traded daily in the industry.

LMAX Digital is already providing real-time market data to some of the industry’s leading reference rate indices and is working with further major institutional analytics providers to integrate our real time volume data feed into these platforms.”
David Mercer, CEO of LMAX Exchange Group, adds: “Providing the investment community with access to our trading volume data, in addition to real-time market data, is an important milestone for the industry, and LMAX Digital is proud to lead the way in creating more transparency and enabling a clear picture of the true size of the spot crypto currency market.
“Being able to access real time spot trading volumes, based on deep institutional liquidity from a regulated spot cryptocurrency exchange, will further enhance the quality and accuracy of market information and price discovery.”

Deep, transparent market data, including trade data, enables better price discovery for the institutional market, which in turn develops better liquidity. Institutional investors will represent the lion’s share of the future growth of the industry, we hope this move will go some way to encouraging further growth in traded digital assets.”
