About the Research

TokenInsight’s September 2026 Crypto Exchange Liquidity Report evaluates liquidity through order book depth, simulated sell-order slippage and bid-ask spreads. Data was collected from selected exchanges’ official APIs at 30-minute intervals between August 16 and September 14, 2026 (UTC+8).

The rankings cited here apply to the eight exchanges included in the report’s BTC and ETH spot comparisons. The Top 3 depth ranking specifically refers to combined BTC and ETH spot depth within the 0.01% price band. Slippage figures represent simulated execution outcomes rather than total trading costs.
