Crypto trading volume has fallen to 2025 lows, with Bitcoin and top altcoins seeing their weakest two-week trading activity since December 2024. Santiment data shows Ethereum, Solana, and other major coins have lost over 50% in weekly trading volume compared to the same period last year. The drop is linked to holiday season inactivity and flat price trends, which have weakened liquidity in both spot and derivatives markets.
