Theres a looot of volume not tracked in the deep level, since a monero user is most likely using these ways (just look the last bad new it was a "nokyc" swap)

How this can be solved ?

Even if Monero daily transaction volume seems low compared to cryptocoin X , Y or Z. That's not a problem

can any other coin (other than bitcoin) point to numerous different marketplaces using monero as standard?

can any other coin offer what monero offers to market participants?

and lastly; numerous sources have researched wash trading - including US Gov, big banks like JPM and each find that at least 70% of transaction volume is wash trading.

as such you can look at daily volume and diminish it by at least 70%, then compare.

eg / solana, #5 on coingecko at $2,633,235,375 24h volume ($2.6billion) minus 70% for wash trading = $789,970,612 ($789 million) monero @ #45 = $85 million

[not saying there isn't fuckery with xmr price, especially until binance drops it] [also noting that the question is still valid about how data is collected on transaction volume for xmr in private]
