As expected @huobicom and @okCoinBTC garner the lion’s share of world marketshare again this week with Huobi still leading the pack:

There are however some surprises this week. @LakeBTC exceeds @bitfinex in all currencies traded worldwide, basically swapping positions from last week. @gatecoin surprisingly has also moved up on the weekly chart apparently at the expense of @btcecom who dropped off the chart. Gatecoin has jumped the usually weightier trading @bitx2014 – albeit on lower overall weekly volumes than the previous week. @bitstamp and @coinbase settled to the bottom of the chart:

$XBTCNY Weekly
No changes in $XBTCNY week to week in terms of overall position:
$XBTUSD Weekly Marketshare
$XBTEUR Weekly
This marketplace sees the rise of @gatecoin who significantly takes number two position. @krakenfx has absolutely dominated this market for many months often garnering more than 50% marketshare in a MONTH. For @gatecoin to grab number two position with over 27% marketshare of all $XBTEUR traded in this weekly chart is nothing less than astounding – given the previous market dynamics in this pair. @coinbase continues to make inroads while cex.io nails down last place on the weekly chart.

$XBTGBP Weekly
This is our first look at bitcoin traded in Great Britain Pounds. @bitx2014 has over 80% of marketshare. Surprisingly localbitcoins – typically the high ball price – trades 11% of all $XBTGBP traded. Coinfloor, Coinbase and Kraken complete the picture.
