Frequently asked
How is the Bitcoin price on this page sourced?
The Bitcoin (BTC) price, market cap and 24-hour volume come from CoinPaprika, with the 7-day trend from Binance. The time shown near the top of the page is when we last refreshed; figures can lag individual exchanges slightly. Full detail is in our methodology.
What does the market cap actually tell me?
Market capitalisation is the current price multiplied by the circulating supply — a far better measure of size than price alone. A lower-priced coin with a huge supply can be larger than a higher-priced one. We walk through it in market cap explained.
Why are some figures, like 30-day or 1-year change, missing?
We only display values we actually have for a given coin. When a longer-range change or a 7-day chart is not reliably available, we leave it out rather than show a zero or an estimate — honest gaps over fabricated data. Terms are defined in our glossary.
