Goodbye, dai and bitcoin sv. Hello, kyber and cosmos.
A swelling in volume in the crypto markets over the third quarter has changed the list of noteworthy digital assets beyond bitcoin and ether that matter most to traders and investors. That change is reflected in the CoinDesk 20.
In the latest revision, based on data from the second and third quarters of this year, five assets were replaced by crypto assets that saw volume surges outpacing even the double-digit gains posted in market volume as a whole.

These assets represent about 99% of total volumes on trusted exchanges, and about 90% of the entire sector’s market capitalization.
