Decred Price Performance After Binance Listing
Decred (DCR) skyrocketed to $54 after Binance trading listed it on Wednesday morning. Some hours later, it dropped to $48.30, but the most significant change is the pick-up in the 24-hour period.

Decred volumes increased to more than $23 million equivalent within one day, with the majority if the transactions against Bitcoin (BTC). From the recent CoinMarketCap information, Binance now comprises over 22% of Decred volumes in the DCR/BTC pair.
Decred is a steadily evolving project, still trading 62% below its all-time high, based on the Onchainfx information. Nevertheless, it has been a fruitful project in the last one year, scaling up by more than 76% regarding dollars. In contrast, DASH has lost almost half of its dollar worth in the last one year, and Ethereum has declined by 33% since October last year.
