What it means

Users, institutions, and firms active in Singapore notice a market that is larger and busier than the one measured a year earlier. The 55.4% rise and the $284 billion total show a bigger local crypto economy, while the 94% jump in institutional-platform activity points to more activity on those venues in the period covered.
