Crypto exchanges processed $1.45T in TradFi volume during H1 2026 But 98.5% of June volume came from perpetual futures, spot accounted for only 1.5% So this is not mainly investors buying stocks or gold through crypto exchanges It is traders using CEX infra to trade TradFi

AI visual note: A MEXC infographic displays that crypto exchanges processed $1.45T in TradFi trading volume in H1 2026, with only 1.5% from spot markets, while highlighting category shifts to precious metals ($236.76B in March) and US stocks ($43.40B in May, $189.84B in June), along with TradFi perpetual open interest growing from $60M to $4.67B and MEXC ranking as the #2 market share in TradFi. The visual reinforces the post's point that this volume reflects traders using CEX infrastructure to trade perpetual futures on TradFi assets, rather than genuine spot investment in stocks or gold.
