SPOT CRYPTO ETF TRADING VOLUME TOPS $2T, PACE ACCELERATES INTO 2026

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

US spot crypto ETFs crossed $2 trillion in cumulative trading volume on January 2, reaching the second trillion in roughly 8 months (about half the time it took to hit the first trillion after spot Bitcoin ETFs launched in January 2024). The increase comes as the product set broadened beyond BTC and ETH following faster SEC listing standards, with new spot ETFs tied to assets like Solana, XRP, Dogecoin, Litecoin, Hedera, and Chainlink.
