Daily turnover across the decentralized exchange (DEX) sector reached $12.3 billion in the 24 hours leading into early Sunday, according to on-chain market data compiled as of 00:00 UTC on November 1, 2026.

The aggregate was 25% below the prior day's session, the compiled figures show, yet it stood 58% above the level recorded one week earlier. Taken together, the two comparisons describe a slower single session set against activity that remains well above where the sector stood a week earlier — a nuance that any single-day total on its own would not reveal.

DEX turnover aggregates token-swap activity across decentralized trading protocols, which execute transactions on public blockchains through smart contracts. Because these trades settle on-chain, sector-wide volume can be measured directly from blockchain records rather than relying on self-reported statistics from centralized venues. Aggregated 24-hour totals are typically recalculated at fixed UTC checkpoints, such as the 00:00 UTC snapshot used in this dataset.

Under that checkpoint cadence, upcoming 00:00 UTC snapshots will refresh both comparisons, indicating whether daily turnover continues to hold above its level from one week earlier.
