Reading a crypto price sensibly

  • There is no single priceUnlike a listed equity, there is no consolidated tape. Every exchange has its own order book and its own price. Aggregated figures are volume-weighted averages, and can differ by a percent or more from what you will actually be filled at.
  • Market cap is a weak measurePrice × circulating supply says nothing about money invested. A thinly traded token can post a large notional cap on very little real volume, because the marginal trade sets the price for the entire supply.
  • Check volume alongside priceA large move on low volume is noise or manipulation. Volume is what tells you whether a price is real and whether you could exit at it.
  • Stablecoins are not automatically stableA dollar peg holds because of reserves or an arbitrage mechanism, and both have failed. Check what backs any stablecoin before treating it as cash.
  • Expect the data to lagFree API tiers commonly serve prices delayed by seconds to minutes. Fine for tracking; not adequate for trading decisions.

About

The Crypto Price Tracker displays live prices, 24-hour percentage changes, market capitalisation, and trading volume for the top 25 cryptocurrencies by market cap. Data is fetched directly from the CoinGecko public API (no API key required) and refreshes automatically every 60 seconds. Your browser makes the API call directly — we do not proxy or store any data.

What data does the crypto price tracker show?
For each of the top 25 cryptocurrencies by market capitalisation, the tracker shows the current price in USD/EUR/GBP, the 24-hour price change percentage, total market capitalisation, and 24-hour trading volume. Market cap is calculated as current price × circulating supply and represents the total market value of a coin.
What is market capitalisation and why does it matter for crypto?
Market cap is the total value of all coins currently in circulation (price × circulating supply). It is used to rank cryptocurrencies by size. Large-cap coins (Bitcoin, Ethereum) generally have more liquidity and lower volatility. Mid-cap and small-cap coins can have higher growth potential but also higher risk of sharp price drops. Market cap helps put individual coin prices in perspective.
How often does the price data refresh?
The tracker auto-refreshes every 60 seconds. CoinGecko's free API updates prices approximately every 30–90 seconds depending on market activity. For tick-by-tick price data needed for active trading, use a dedicated exchange API or trading terminal — this tool is designed for monitoring and research, not millisecond-precision trading.
