Well personally I know Coinmarketcap since it had 4 coins listed on the website and look where it's now, with hundreds of coins and tokens listed there. They for sure got rich with the website as the traffic they have is really above normal and its increasing with every day because as soon as they list a new project, every holder will check its price there.

Coingecko its a new website but it has a lot of new features besides just checking the price , volume , charts , social media and exchanges as there you can also see some technical details.

[meanwords]

I find Coingecko more accurate and useful than CMC. This is just my personally view but whenever I check the price of something, Coingecko is more accurate to exchange pricing. Also, Coingecko has a price checker/calculator where you can check the price of your asset in different kinds of currencies depending on how much you put. It's so convenient in my opinion. Not only that, Coingecko list tokens/coins far easier than CMC so I think that's the main reason why devs prefer listing to Coingecko first.

[sazonk]

You are very right CMC and Coingecko are very helpful when we are in the process of predicting the price of a token or coin, if told to choose between CMC and Coingeko I will choose both, because of the two sites complement each other. The thing I often see there is researching the price of coins / tokens in the market and for graphic information problems I think CMC is more familiar to me, but that goes back to taste again. And one more information provided by CMC and Coingeko is accurate.

CMC and coingecko both very useful for us, i used to use both however i am confused why many coins and tokens not listing in CMC but listing in coingecko, not only coins and tokens but also many exchanges, is this because coingecko become more popular than CMC, or for something else.

You can see if CMC is still superior compared with coingecko

The total traffic overview from coingecko is 3x less compared with CMC. That means CMC is more popular compared with coingecko and again coingecko uses a different method about the coin listing process.

So many crap coins are getting deleted from CMC due to the various reasons, but coingecko is still counting it. It looks like coingecko is never erased the scam coin from the list and it keeps count all of the tokens since bitcoin has created.

The first thing to know is that both plays the same role, but CMC looks more advanced which is why people prefer using it all the time. Also, the reason most coins gets listed on coingecko before CMC is that, it's easy to list in coingecko without unnecessary charges, restrictions etc. That's why most coins gets listed on coingecko at first, gain momentum then move to CMC.

[huu78]

CMC remains popular than Coingecko because their coin listings are in CMC there are several conditions. And all I know should have a specific volume of markets and listings of at least 2 exchanges or more.
Different from Coingecko which them all new coins or tokens. Both are still equally useful but different advantages.

Coinmarketcap is not listing a coin, it's the developer's move if they want to list it in Coinmarketcap and Coingecko, they also have guidelines before they can get in, so it's possible, that developers prefer Coingecko,  or CMC are rejecting some coins they want to be listed, so it's not about the number of coins listed it's on the criteria that both markets have set up.

[SamarasLoch]

I would have to go with Coinmarketcap. Old school wins it for me. I do think that most devs prefer Coingecko to CMC because of listing procedures. CMC has been known to be a little bit tight when selecting the coins/tokens they list; maybe, that isn't the case for Coingecko  hence the large number of coins there and exchanges as well. They are both accurate in the prices of tokens so I can go with any one of them but I'll have to be nostalgic and stick to where it all started from, CMC!

Both website are great and offers live updated price of the coin/token.
As a user of both website, i can confirm that coingecko load faster than CMC and i guess that could be one of the reason people visit it.

many coins and tokens not listing in CMC but listing in coingecko

CMC charges fees while coingecko offers free listing.

[bobyhodob]

both of these sites are good and I use both. because some tokens have not been registered at CMC but already registered at Coingecko. the difference also doesn't look that big when the market has a movement. both of these sites are very helpful for finding daily trading assets that I do. especially for the list of exchanges that release tokens or coins that I trade.

indeed both are very useful for traders but that can provide a powerful influence on cryptocurrency price movements at the exchange place I think is coin marketcap because many coins are listed there and it seems that what is often visited by traders is coinmarketcap.

I have been using CMC from a those days when it had very few coins listed over their and I think both CMC and Coingecko have similar functionality but Coingecko is relatively new compared to CMC but Coingecko has some advance features like filters and categories which are not available in CMC which gives Coingecko an upper hand now.

[albrots]

Both of these same platforms have their respective advantages. I love both. from the beginning I plunged into the world of cryptocurrency I used CMC as a benchmark to view and monitor coin prices in real time. Then I found Coingecko which is almost the same as CMC but has a review feature for ICO and many tokens in Coingecko compared to CMC. Both have their own rules for getting into a list. I use both, because it really helps me.

Despite the fact that Coingecko has some attractive features with wonderful theme and layout CMC is still most popular one even though it's not that accurate as it seems.

~snip~ CMC has some strong rules to get listed there where any coin/token project easily can get listed in Coingecko, that's why it has more coins listed than CMC! To me, this lot of token listing is a drawback in Coingecko!

Exactly CMC raised their standard that's why they don't list any coin easily.

Now I prefer to use CoinGecko although before I used mainly CoinMarketCap.
In my opinion CoinGecko shows trade volumes more adequately. Most volume on CoinMarketCap are fake and wash trading.
There are also more coins listed on the CoinGecko.

If exchanges manipulates their trading volume then how coinmarket cap can be responsible for it,we have to look for the trading volumes is fake or its just the actual value by entering into the exchange,don't conclude anything by looking at websites like coinmarketcap or coingecko.

[comchien]

I use both, in my opinion CMC can find coins with fixed trading volumes, and coigeckos do not need that, coingecko can find more information about ico projects. For more information on new projects, coingecko is recommended.

[imstillthebest]

coingecko is popular but cmc is more popular if were to ask because i think cmc exist first and cmc are being advertise anywhere before  . when it comes to listing both can be different because they are not owned by the same source  .  others said that coingecko is better because it shows legit results while i heard alot of complaints from cmc saying that its being manipulative  .  for me my choice would still be cmc over coingecko because i find it easier to navigate   .

[Denreal]

Coinmarketcap is more popular, but it already has a competitor, which is coingecko, although there are other coin market watch sites. If care is not taken C!C might lose its relevance and the option that will be considered more will be coingecko. It is more accessible and informative.

[Obito]

Both are useful tools but CMC is more popular than Coingecko! Coingecko has something unique features like Exchange trust score, ICO review and many more but CMC only has token price chart, trading view and exchange rankings which also have in Coingecko! But CMC has some strong rules to get listed there where any coin/token project easily can get listed in Coingecko, that's why it has more coins listed than CMC! To me, this lot of token listing is a drawback in Coingecko!

I agree because way back 2017, almost everyday there is a new coin listed on CMC including shitcoins which I think the reason why CMC raise its standard for listing new coins. Coingecko is not new but competing with CMC's popularity is one of the possible reason why they accept new coin easily and one more thing is they want to get more traffic on their site due to the people searching for the new coin.

CMC don't wanna let some not useful coin to be listed in their platforms, so expect it to be fewer than coingecko. In addition, I do trust both of these but I used to be in CMC than coingecko for safe purposes I guess or for validation of my thoughts whether the coin is shit or not. Maybe you soon be realizing how reliable CMC than coingecko although they are both good.
