Total Volume (Bitcoins): 6.37 million

On the first spot among best Bitcoin exchange and trading platforms by volume is Bitfinex, which amassed around 21% of the total Bitcoin transactions in the last six months. The platform is operated by iFinex and is based out of Taiwan. Earlier this year, Bitfinex announced that it wouldn’t offer users the possibility to withdraw funds in USD due to a limitation on wire transfers from Wells Fargo. In 2016, Bitfinex was hacked and $72 million in Bitcoin was stolen from customers’ accounts and earlier this year the company managed to pay back all of the customers’ lost funds.
