Live Cryptocurrency Prices & Market Data

We rank cryptocurrencies based on the market cap by default. However, we do offer filters according to other metrics such as trading volume or price. Besides market cap, we also implemented certain criteria to decide which 'tier' a coin would be placed at. Learn more about how we rank coins.

Use the currency menu at the top right of the screen. It shows USD by default. You can switch to many other currencies from around the world. All prices and market caps on the site will then show in the currency you choose.

Our prices update in real time. We collect live price updates from the most active markets on many centralized and decentralized exchanges, and calculate an average price from them. A single exchange has its own buyers and sellers, so its price can be slightly higher or lower than our average. Our price gives you a good estimate across the whole market.

Data from various sources is collected by us, including:

• (De)centralized exchanges - We utilize this data to determine the current prices of all cryptocurrencies.
• Block explorers - These are used to find the supply of cryptocurrencies.
• Our community - We rely on our community members for valuable information such as coin descriptions, icons, websites, social media handles, and more.
• Additionally, we develop our own open-source projects to further enhance our data collection and analysis.

Market cap is the total value of all coins of a cryptocurrency in circulation. You calculate it by multiplying the current price by the circulating supply. For example, 10 million coins at $10 each give a market cap of $100 million. We use market cap to rank coins by size.

Bitcoin dominance refers to the proportion of Bitcoin's market capitalization (market cap) compared to the total market cap of all cryptocurrencies. It is often referred to as the Bitcoin dominance ratio or Bitcoin dominance index.

Many people trade between Bitcoin and altcoins. They use the Bitcoin dominance to see if it is a good time to invest in Bitcoin or in altcoins. When the Bitcoin dominance is high some people will expect altcoins to rise in the future.

When Bitcoin dominance grows it is called Bitcoin season and when it declines it is called altseason.

Cryptocurrency/Coin: Digital currencies that use secure technology and decentralized networks, like Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Token: A digital asset that relies on existing blockchain platforms like Ethereum and serves a specific purpose within a project or application, such as representing ownership or facilitating transactions. Examples include Tether (USDT) and Chainlink (LINK).

We aim to list as many cryptocurrencies as possible, from large coins to new tokens. A coin needs to trade on at least one exchange we track, so we can calculate its price. If we suspect a coin of fraud, we add a warning on its page. Projects can submit a coin through our coin listing page.

Coinranking was established in 2017 in the Netherlands by three co-founders, Mark, Maarten and Nick who were enthusiastic about the cryptocurrency market that was booming at the time.

We saw that everyday people don’t have enough time and skills to compete with professional crypto investors. So, we wanted to make it easier for them to spot investment opportunities in this market.

That’s why, when we started, we built the first cryptocurrency price tracker optimized for mobile phones. Today, we make spotting opportunities easy by signaling about market events and by ranking cryptocurrencies in many ways.
