CoinMarketCap.com - Market Cap Rankings of All Cryptocurrencies!

[d5000]

Does someone know how CoinMarketCap, in the present, accesses the "circulating supply" value?

In the first post they write:

public URL that displays the total supply (total mined so far).

That would mean that they don't run altcoin clients themselves but access to statistics provided, e.g., by block explorers.

My question:

- Do they need a full-fledged web service providing e.g. JSON/XML data?
- Or are they OK with a web site where the value "circulating supply" appears, because they web-scrape that sites?
- Or have they changed their policy and are running altcoin clients now for every coin? (unlikely because that would need a lot of resources)?

I ask because there are tons of coins that are supported only by the block explorers without "API mode", but their supply is displayed correctly.

Would *you* really want nearly nine hundred wallets open all of the time?

I would imagine calling the various API's from block explorers and exchanges would give coinmarketcap an insight into how a coin is progressing...

Of course not. But maybe CMC has the necessary server infrastructure for that. However - their only income seem to be ads (although they should have good traffic) and so it's perhaps not that likely.

My question was because of the many altcoins that are only featured on block explorers like bchain.info or chain.nem.ninja that don't provide any API.

OK, exchange APIs can be an explanation - I didn't realize they provide sometimes additional infos about certain altcoins.

So maybe all coins with a market cap displayed at CMC that aren't hosted at a "full fledged block explorer" like cryptoid, are listed on at least one exchange that does provide this information.

BITCLOUD (BTD)
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcloud/#markets

Please use COINEXCHANGE as a basis for the BITCLOUD market cap.

CHAINZ EXPLORER, already use COINEXCHANGE as a basis for market cap.

Does anyone know why EOS would sometimes disappear from the list?

[liljsbach]

Isn't this a high time to add a historical data api option there? That's the most important update everyone is looking for and it'd take less than 1KLOC to program this.

Hi Gliss!
Please update information on our token (asset) MINEX to display Market Cap
https://coinmarketcap.com/assets/minex/
Our project involves destruction of tokens, but now Total Supply = Circulating Supply.

Faithfully yours, MINEX team.

Hi Gliss,

This is BITCLOUD
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcloud/

This is based on YOBIT market. Please change the exchange to coinexchange here:
https://www.coinexchange.io/market/BTD/BTC

However BITCLOUD has been swapped to BITCLOUD 2.0 (BTDX)

This is the new thread here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2092583.0

coinexchange will soon update their wallets from BTD to BTDX, so it is good if you base the BTD market on coinexchange, not yobit, because yobit does not do wallet updates.

EDIT
coinexchange have updated their wallets - this is the new market:
https://www.coinexchange.io/market/BTDX/BTC

Criteria for a coin to be added:
