What is CoinMarketCap and how does it work?

What is the CMC portfolio?

The CoinMarketCap portfolio is the one place to track all of your crypto holdings. If you have some crypto investments, you probably bought them from a few sources: perhaps you bought BTC from Coinbase, bought BNB from Binance, and then maybe bought many other coins or tokens from different exchanges.

What information is on CMC's coin details pages?

One of the most important pieces of information on CMC’s coin details pages is the “market pairs” tab. Each market pair has their own confidence indicator, which helps you pick an exchange to trade your crypto. This confidence score reflects the liquidity of an exchange — the more liquidity it has, the easier it will be to trade crypto!

What happened to CoinMarketCap?

In April 2020, CoinMarketCap was acquired by Binance Capital Mgmt.
