The 15 largest coins by trading volume over the last 30 days. The numbers are broken down by last 24 hours, 7 days & 30 days.

The biggest surprise is EDRCoin in 8th spot. EDRCoin is not a top 20 coin if you judge only by market capitalization but as is clear from the volume numbers, the coin is heavily traded. With over $25 million in volume, it is ahead of LISK, STEEM, NXT, DASH & NEM.

Also on the list is Tether (USDT) which comes in at 6th place. Tether is a special coin with some interesting qualities. The coin is highly stable due to its fixed peg to national currencies. Tether is backed 1 - to -1 to traditional currencies held in reserve, USDT is always equal to 1 USD. Because of the exchange mechanism a lot of volume moves thru Tether for conversion.
