Bitcoin.com Crypto Exchange Is Reportedly Faking Its Volumes

Bitcoin.com crypto exchange is reportedly faking its real volumes as per the reports that we have in our latest cryptocurrency news.

The market operator is using the Multiexchange.com service and it is sharing order books with some of the several major markets. Posting on Twitter, Dan Hedl mentioned that Bitcoin.com merged the orders of its platform with Bequant and HitBTC and presented a very high activity. The merged order books are one of the efficient ways that the exchange used to report their trading activity. Over the past year, some of the exchanges showed up huge trading volumes and most of them were probably generated by bots. The previous research showed that the faked activity of the exchanges is significant in some of the markets and sometimes even makes up to 90 percent of all trading. CoinMarketCap has even set out a mission to make the exchanges report the real volumes and to reveal the order books.

The Bitcoin.com crypto exchange is a relatively new platform on the crypto scene so now the markets make complete profiling of the brand which also hosts a mining pool and a crypto wallet. The exchange is also planning to launch a futures market and has since opened a procedure with the US Commodities Futures Trading Commission. The new exchange brand has received something of a bad reputation in the crypto industry since the site and the wallets were launched by the crypto evangelist Roger Ver. He later switched teams and started supporting Bitcoin Cash and was later accused of misleading behavior for securing the Bitcoin.com brand and switching places of the assets in the wallet.

The Bitcoin.com mining pool mines on both the Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash blockchains. On the Bitcoin network, the pool only discovers 0.69% of the blocks. On the Bitcoin Cash network, the company discovered between 6 and 8 percent of all blocks. At this point, it is unknown what kind of effect trading on the recently launched exchange will have. It is still not listed among other markets and there are no clear statistics but with time the volumes will only show later. The launch of the exchange as per the coming altcoin news fails to lift the market price of Bitcoin Cash. The coin performs with decent stability and the altcoin is still unable to recover from the 2018 levels.
