Data methodology

CoinXview calculates every figure itself from public exchange and blockchain data. This page explains how each number is calculated, where it comes from, and how the site makes money.

Data sources

• Price, volume: public APIs of 22 exchanges (Binance, OKX, Bybit, Coinbase, Kraken, KuCoin, Gate, Bitget, HTX, MEXC, Upbit, Bithumb…). Binance via WebSocket (updated every second), OKX and Bybit every 5 seconds, other exchanges every 10 seconds.
• Circulating supply: Bitcoin is calculated from the block height (mempool.space); other coins use figures published by exchanges, cross-checked against verified project data sources; stablecoins use on-chain circulating supply (DefiLlama).
• DeFi: DefiLlama (TVL, fees, revenue, yields, stablecoin supply — their price / market cap data is not used). DEX tokens: DexScreener, with source credit and a link back to DexScreener.
• Derivatives (funding, open interest, liquidations): public APIs of derivatives exchanges. Options: Deribit.
• Wallets, token contracts: read directly from the blockchain via public nodes.
• News: headlines and descriptions from RSS feeds of crypto publications (CoinDesk, Cointelegraph, The Block…), always with the source and a link to the original article.
• The site calculates every figure itself and does not reuse data from other price aggregator sites. Status of each source: Data status.

Price

A coin's price is the volume-weighted average price of valid spot pairs across exchanges: exchanges with more trading carry more weight. To avoid wrong prices:

• The exchange with the largest volume is the reference; any pair that deviates more than 5% from it is excluded (usually a different token with the same ticker, or an exchange with deposit / withdrawal issues).
• If two big exchanges list two different tokens under the same ticker with similar volume, the price stays with the price group of the past 3 hours and only switches when the other group has twice the volume — so the price does not jump back and forth between two tokens.
• Exchange data older than 5 minutes is dropped until the exchange returns fresh data.
• Coins with total volume under $10,000 / 24 hours are not listed; coins traded on only one small exchange are marked "1 exchange only".
• Cross pairs (in BTC, ETH, EUR…) are for reference only and are not included in the aggregate price.
• Local-currency prices (VND, EUR, JPY…) = USD price × the USDT price in that currency: the median of P2P buy and sell ads where a P2P market exists (excluding small-limit "bait" ads), otherwise a reference exchange rate. This is close to what users actually pay and may differ from the bank rate.

24-hour volume

Total volume of valid spot pairs (pairs excluded for price deviation are not counted), converted to USD. Derivatives (futures) volume is not included — see the separate Derivatives page.

Market cap and supply

Market cap = price × circulating supply. When sources report different circulating figures, the site picks the safe number (total supply is never used in place of circulating supply); if it cannot be verified, we leave market cap blank rather than show an inflated number. FDV (fully diluted valuation) = price × max supply (or total supply when a coin has no max supply). Total market cap includes USDT (based on on-chain circulating supply).

Ranking

Ranked by market cap from highest to lowest; coins without a market cap come after, ordered by volume. Wrapped / staking coins (WBTC, stETH…) and stock tokens do not take a rank number. Rankings are based on data only — nobody pays to move up, including advertisers.

% change, high / low, ATH

• 24h %: based on each exchange's 24-hour opening price, volume-weighted like the price. 1h, 7d and 30d %: current price compared with the aggregate price in the hourly / daily candles stored by the site.
• 24h high / low: taken from the largest exchange with available data.
• ATH (all-time high): the highest price on the exchanges the site tracks, calculated from the exchanges' historical daily candles and updated as soon as the price sets a new high. It may differ from ATHs shown elsewhere if the coin once traded on exchanges the site does not track. Price history is combined from several exchanges (the longest record is used, only when prices on overlapping days match); a day that spikes more than 4× above the surrounding days and immediately falls back is treated as an abnormal trade and ignored. When several exchanges have prices for the same day, one exchange’s price is not counted above 1.3× the others.

Our own indices

• Fear & Greed: from price momentum, volatility, buying pressure, market breadth and Bitcoin dominance — the method is described on the page.
• CoinXview Risk Score (0–100, higher = riskier): from liquidity, number of listing exchanges, price gaps between exchanges, volatility and history depth — explained on each coin page. A 10-point penalty is added if the project was hacked for $1 million or more in the past 12 months (DefiLlama data).
• CoinXview 20 / 100 Index, Altcoin season, Correlation: the method is described on each page.
• Token contract permissions: the site reads contract code on-chain itself, states only technical facts, and does not judge whether a project is good or bad.

News and AI

News summaries and the AI Assistant are written by AI from the original articles and the site's data; sources are always cited. AI can make mistakes — every page says so clearly, and the AI does not give buy or sell advice.

Screener and “Why is it moving”

• Coin age (screener, screener alerts): counted from the first day with a price on the exchanges CoinXview tracks — a coin that traded elsewhere earlier may look “younger” than it really is.
• Futures volume, OI, funding: summed / averaged across the derivatives exchanges CoinXview reads; funding is normalized to an 8-hour period and weighted by OI.
• Screener alerts: checked every 5 minutes; only coins that newly meet the conditions trigger an alert, at most once per coin every 24 hours.
• “Why is it moving”: news from the last 36 hours that mentions the coin, with an AI-rated impact of 40/100 or more, preferring news in the same direction as the 24h price move; without such news the card says “Key news”. It is related news, not a claim of the only cause.

Revenue and commitments

• Ads are always labeled "Ad"; the site refuses ads for projects showing signs of fraud, pyramid schemes or guaranteed returns.
• We do not accept money to boost rankings, feature tokens or write favorable articles. Every list (top gainers and losers, trending, new coins…) is based on data only.
• Spotted a wrong figure? Let us know — we will check and fix it.
