CoinMarketCap stands for data transparency and clarity (news)

At CoinMarketCap, we believe in transparency and openness in our data. All the information that you see on our site is aggregated from hundreds of exchanges based on the APIs that they provide us. When we list exchanges, we do our best to verify with exchanges that the APIs they provide us will pipe through the freshest and most accurate data possible.


Volume concerns
In recent weeks, we have heard increasing concern around exchange volumes and rankings. There are three main concerns that have been brought to our attention, that have been skewing the perception of the data on the site, namely:


1. Fee-free/Transaction mining models
Transaction mining is a new model adopted by exchanges to rebate users with their own exchange coin when transactions are made. Essentially, coins are “mined” in the process of transacting, and all exchange fees are then refunded to the user. With a model like this, users are incentivized to trade back and forth in order to mine more coins, oftentimes with bots.


2. Low fee models
Some exchanges charge extremely low fees in order to encourage more trading activity. Often, these fees fluctuate, are tiered differently by account type (such as market makers or bots) and transaction volume, and are not obvious to the user or to us at CoinMarketCap.


3. Artificial volumes/wash trading
In order to ensure that their listings remain active on certain exchanges, sometimes projects are instructed to maintain a minimum level of volume. This causes projects to heavily employ market making services and bots to trade their own coin to inflate their volumes.


As you can imagine, the complexity of dealing with these evolving models is multi-faceted and deep. While we have a relationship with most of the exchanges listed on our site, there is no guarantee that any of them will respond or comply to any specific guidelines, but we have to continue showing users the best approximation of price and volume based on all the data we have available.


The evolution of new models such as transaction mining also means that there needs to be new ways to account for volume. Compounding it is the fact that they are, in fact, enabling greater liquidity in the way that users are trading more readily on the platforms.


Data transparency is top priority
Even though we try our best to verify the data with the exchanges on our site, we are not in the practice of censoring or policing others. In an open ecosystem like the one we are in, we believe that the best policy – that we follow closely – is to over-provide on data and let users make their own informed choices about what to do with that data.


However, we understand that these concerns are valid and have implications on the community and the impressions that people have about exchanges, even more than we are traditionally used to.


Previously, we had volume requirements for exchanges in order to filter for more popular exchanges that could be listed on CoinMarketCap. It was a necessary but not sufficient requirement, since we receive hundreds to thousands of requests a day to list new exchanges and coins. This was not meant, in any way, for us to introduce censorship, but rather for us to use a simple and easy-to-understand criteria for exchanges to figure out what they need to be on CoinMarketCap.


Due to the recent changes in the exchange landscape, and the concerns aired by our community, we have removed the volume requirement for exchanges. This went into effect on Monday this week.


The removal of the limit is partly to combat the impression that volume is the only requirement that is necessary for listing on CoinMarketCap. In fact, our team spends time researching new coins and exchanges to ensure that they are real projects, backed by real teams, and are not fraudulent, before putting them on CoinMarketCap. We are extremely conscientious about giving all exchanges and coins/tokens accurate representation on CoinMarketCap.


New features to clarify exchange info for users
Going a step further, we will be progressively updating our exchange rankings to be even more in line with our view that users should be given the power to experience and use the data in a way that fits their needs most.


CoinMarketCap will ensure that there are more levers and toggles that users can use to filter for the exchanges most relevant to them, such as those that they have accounts with, and look only for specific exchanges with attributes that are of interest, such as exchanges supporting transaction mining.


In this way, by introducing different ways to look at exchanges and their respective features, the ranking system will be able to take into account various expectations that users have and help them view and digest exchange information better.


Additionally, we will also introduce new metrics, such as 7-day and 30-day volume, and the establishment date of each exchange, so that users can use those as a way to evaluate for themselves the consistency of the volume on the exchange.


As you can probably guess from the challenges we have alluded to above, it is an extremely demanding problem that requires all our stakeholders in the cryptocurrency community to solve. We hope that as we all move towards expecting higher transparency from exchanges and projects, they will be able to join us in raising the standards for data veracity.


Again, we want to state that our philosophy is to provide as much information as possible to our users, so that they can form their own conclusions and interpretations – and not introduce our own bias into that mix.


We are open to your feedback as we collectively figure out best practices in identifying and rooting out issues with data. As always, we welcome you to make any suggestions or requests on our form. Our team reads each and every request, and will attend to them ASAP – Sometimes, it just takes a while because we get so many requests in a day!


Thank you for being fans and users of CoinMarketCap, and we look forward to having a constructive and productive conversation with you.

CoinMarketCap announces new professional API and features on site

Major quarterly launch includes a new professional API, derivatives markets, new exchange ranking, newsletter, events page, iOS app update , and comprehensive glossary of crypto terms


Today, in our major quarterly update, we announce our highly-anticipated professional API. We are excited to launch it after a month-long feedback and beta process with hundreds of users! It’s now live, together with several highly-requested new features on our site. Read on for more details:


Professional API
Our professional API will give developers and funds the ability to use our aggregated data in product offerings, providing price, market capitalization, conversions, and trading pair data that CoinMarketCap aggregates from hundreds of exchanges every minute.


“As part of our mission to continue growing the cryptocurrency sector with our partners, our professional API will ensure that the CoinMarketCap data that users know and trust can be integrated into every application. Our API comes with a best-in-class developer dashboard that will help every developer – from hobbyist to large-scale cryptocurrency product teams – make the most of our data.”


– Brandon Chez, founder of CoinMarketCap


CMC API Developer Portal
With more cryptocurrency products and institutional funds investing in the space, from wallets to portfolio management and cryptocurrency derivatives, the CoinMarketCap API aims to serve as a key data pipeline to supply accurate data necessary for decision-making.


The API is available at various price tiers depending on features and rate limits. Historical data of up to five years is also available through the API with an enterprise contract.


Edit: The public API will be ported over to the free tier of the professional API. Guys, we’re not leaving you in the lurch.


Addition of derivatives markets
We have added derivatives markets to its site to help you explore these markets beyond the standard spot trading exchanges already listed. We now support futures, options and OTC exchanges, and will continue to add other derivatives markets data comprehensively.


As derivatives continue to grow as a cryptocurrency asset class, by giving users a way to find these exchanges, we hope this will help users to better understand and embrace derivatives.


Update on why derivatives were added: We have always been aware of the derivatives market, and we have been in contact with many of them for a long time! Our goal is to give the full picture to our users about what’s out there, so it’s really important that we add derivatives to give greater visibility to these markets, and drive understanding and informed decisions. We also know that derivatives are becoming a big part of the crypto space, just as they are in finance, so starting now and giving more prominence to it, together with our updates on spot exchanges, will hopefully continue to increase the appreciation and adoption of crypto.


New exchange ranking
We have updated our exchange ranking page in a consistent format with our coin ranking page. This is part of an effort to better highlight exchanges on the site, giving exchanges the same first-class status as coins by featuring them prominently on the landing page in an alternate tab.


As part of the revamp, exchange information is now available at a glance. Apart from ranking and the total number of markets, users can now view volume in various intervals, such as one-day, seven-day, and 30-day volume. Standard fee, no-fee, and transaction mining exchanges are marked clearly, ensuring that you can look at exchanges most relevant to your interests.


Newsletter
We have also launched a daily newsletter, another highly-requested feature from members of the community. The newsletter covers trends, news, and updates in cryptocurrency every day, designed to give a comprehensive market update that can be read in five minutes or less. Sign up here:


“With the newsletter, we want to provide additional information on the constantly-evolving field of cryptocurrency projects, ideas, and philosophies. We have been a member of this community since 2013, and we are focused on continuing to be the unbiased, independent voice in cryptocurrency,” says Chez.


Events
Another major feature enhancement to the CoinMarketCap site is a brand-new events page, where you can now go to keep up with the plethora of cryptocurrency events around the world. The events page will be constantly updated with coverage of community-led and fringe events, so as to showcase the widest range of possibilities for an event-goer.


You are also invited to submit your events to the page for other like-minded enthusiasts to discover and attend.


Glossary
A comprehensive glossary of cryptocurrency terms has also been added to CoinMarketCap to help you quickly find and understand cryptocurrency and blockchain concepts. The glossary was developed to provide concise explanations of complex cryptocurrency topics, aiding comprehension within one to three sentences each.


The content of the glossary spans technical terminology, common expressions and memes, and CoinMarketCap-specific nomenclature such as those related to supply, to cater to cryptocurrency initiates and veterans alike!


iOS app update
An update has also been made to the iOS app, which now includes currency conversions for an improvement to the user experience. You can now convert between 32 fiat and five cryptocurrencies on the app, similar to that supported on the site.


Blog, social and careers
On our new blog, we are planning to invite more guest writers to the blog to showcase a wider variety of ideas and concepts. To have closer and faster communication with its community, we have also set up our own subreddit, /r/CMC.
Last month, we also published a new careers page and announced new positions we are hiring for, including developers and designers.


“As our new product releases show, we are constantly updating so that we can help to grow adoption of cryptocurrency. If you also believe in what we want to achieve, we look forward to having you join our decentralized team around the world,” added Chez.


We are a completely distributed team around the world (except for a few team members who love each other enough to live together in the same house!��) and you have the flexibility to work whenever and wherever you like, remotely.

CoinMarketCap Accepts Kind Tokens as Payment

To ensure that we continue to give you the most accurate and up-to-date data on crypto, CoinMarketCap is ad-supported, as many of you already know. However, we spend a great deal of time making sure that the ads you see are relevant, and optimizing user experience and ad performance through best practices.


As we continue to improve on our ad strategy and involve our users in understanding their needs, we have found many interesting advertising-based blockchain projects developing. We often research their pros and cons, and are active observers in how they may help our users to experience ads better, or even be rewarded as part of advertising ecosystems in the future – true to the spirit of blockchain. Even now, we’re always on the lookout for great ideas and implementations around the advertising blockchain space.


One of the projects that we have been paying attention to is Kind Ads. Their goal, to make the Internet more “kind” by making advertising more relevant for end users, is something that we relate to. With the advent of intrusive ads all around the internet, we believe that we can all contribute to making the internet a better place with relevant ads that reward both the advertisers and us as users.


The Kind network enables advertisers and publishers to be connected directly using traditional and innovative ad formats, meaning that advertisers can get direct access to publishers’ inventories, a win-win on both sides in terms of cost and access. As part of their model, users may also have greater control over their data and interests too.


So for a start, in addition to accepting payments for ads in BTC and ETH (and fiat), we will now also accept payments for ads in Kind Tokens.


Here’s to a brighter future in advertising for all of us: users, publishers, and advertisers alike!
