binance and kraken have ripple at 2.26 but coincheckup has it at 2.56. why?

[boomer55]

I've checked a number of other coins and they all seem to be the same between binance, kraken and coincheckup.  All except for XRP.

anybody know why?

Hi. This is Valentin with CoinCheckUp.

We're using CoinMarketCap's aggregated market/pricing data on our site. Please cross-reference their data and take a look at https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ripple/#markets as well

So much to learn.

I wouldn't trust coinmarketcap's xrp prices. I remember they were wrong a few years ago

Always double check the prices shown on xrpcharts with those shown on coinmarketcap.
