How we Built Token Graphs

Token Graph by Bloxy.info allows to visualize major money movements for the specified timeframe:

and selected currency.

We used Token Graph to build the picture of money flow before, during and after Binance suspension. We selected a part of the graph around major exchanges, including Binance, Bitfinex, Okex, UpBit and Kraken.

Also you can use the tool and experiment with the detail level controlled by a slider on the top of the graph:

You will see what huge effect Binance has on Ethereum flow of multiple tokens, especially own token, BNB.

Seeing is better than words…
