This is a very interesting approach for displaying a table in a responsive design layout. Not very readable though, I'm afraid. :)

That looks somehow broken. What device are you using?

In Firefox, if I make the window smaller, and on my smartphone they look identical. They just hide the Bitcoin and Ethereum columns.

For a few ways on how to do responsive tables, have a look at this page https://elvery.net/demo/responsive-tables/

I like the "no more tables" approach.

Great, now you cannot access half the content on the phone? (Flipping it is just annoying.)

This is the opposite of a good design.

Tables are notoriously unfit for small displays.

Hiding unnecessary columns is a trade-off for the smaller screen.

In this case, I'd say it's okay as the absolute numbers are not that important and the relative numbers are the important information.

Also, the table is responsive but the ad still stretches the page. And I'm not sure how 'responsive' just hiding content is. I still prefer the paginated table. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Correct, this is not responsive, but adaptive
