We confirmed that on Coinmarketcap, Crptocom is present in the 15th position while on Coingecko it is in the 2nd place as a top exchange in terms of the daily trading volume.
The issue first surfaced on 15th December when the CEO Of Crypto.com, Kris reported to Coinmarketcap that their exchange data is incorrect. In a reply, the CoinMarketCap team joked that he might have to cancel the Forbes interview because of the matter, and asked: “Did you tell that to coinbase & cryptocom too.”
Replying to coinmarketcap nonserious behavior, Kris said:
“You don’t need to tell us anything – we are already working on removing the unreliable price stream of CoinMarketCap from our product.”
You don’t have to tell us anything — we are already working on removing @CoinMarketCap’s unreliable price feed from our product.

Baby Doge another rising meme coin posted a complaint that Coinmarketcap refuse to verify their supply and demand for a more decentralized version of coinmarketcap.
“We have a very similar issue with CoinMarketCap refusing to verify our supply. We need a decentralized version. Thankfully coingecko has verified Babydoge and remains a neutral source ! Ranked at #218 today”
In 2020, the Coinmarketcap was acquired by Binance. As a reminder, in July 2020, CoinMarketCap placed Binance Coin at the top of the DeFi token rating. After criticism on social media, the service removed the token without giving any reason why it was shown as a top defi coin.
