Uh, that's not how volume works. For one, because you'd be adding to it. But also: much of that volume is buying and selling of the same ETH.

I like your comparison to penny stocks.

All that matters is that liquidity begets liquidity. Volume metrics are merely referential, something with $300,000 in daily volume can easily be inferred to be less liquid than $22,000,000 in daily volume.
