That is exactly what I am trying to avoid, to be another coinmarketcap copy. I think coinmarketcap et al. where you have to scroll and scroll and click your way through pages just to see the first 100-200 coins is not good. I want to see hundreds of coins at the same time get a fast overview, and then click on a coin that I want to know more about. But thats me, that is why I asked for feedback.
If that is working for the top coin trackers, could be a good indicator that that is what visitors want to see. You should not build a website cause you want to be different, there should be a demand for that change you want to implement. Did you do a market survey before creating the website?
I like how I can click on a coin and get the information on same page without moving to a new page while being able to quickly move from one coin to the next.
My suggestion will be to change the color of the figures and not the font background. The page looks like a riot of colors as it is.
It will look like this - Bitcoin
1.2% 4.2% 0.10%, rather than - Bitcoin
1.2% 4.2% 0.10%Notice any difference?

Again, I really try to steer away from the run of the mill coin trackers a la coinmarketcap. There are hundreds of them and the world do not need another one. My idea is as I wrote earlier is to combine a list site like cmc with a an overview site like coin360 or cryptobubbles.net. Which site(s) do you use normally and why?
Ok, I see your point.
The user interface is a bit non-self explanatory and not easy to understand. The design is all over the place and new website visitors cannot really make out at first glance what exactly they are looking at.
You should take a look at coinmarketcap and look at their UI.

There are hundreds of cmc clones, I want to try something different (different do no imply superior, but its worth a shot). coinmarketcap+coin360=cryptobubbles.com, that is my formula.

Hey!
Nice project. I think you should fetch only 25 coins per page, space it and not make it look like a gigantic graph. Maintain only 2 colours, red for losses and green for gains. Remove the daily, 24hrs and 7days price fluctuations and replace with just 24hrs. It made things cluster. It's fine if I will still see all these information when I click that particular coin. If you remove some of those details, you can still display 50 coins per page and not make it look like riot of colours according to un_rank.
Thank you, but I really really try to avoid cloning coinmarketcap and all the other pages that have there long long paginated lists where you have to scroll forever to just see the top 50. I am trying to make this site very information dense (maybe to dense) to give a quick market overview.

Of course I can see that everyone that have comment so far talk about the spacing and that I should look to CMC for design clues.
I actually like this fast overview concept but I find it too compact as well. Perhaps reducing the colums could be a good idea.
Or you could try a middle ground approach and introduce customization or 2-3 modes. Consequently, it would be even nicer if there'd be permalink for the chosen change/s so folks can just bookmark the link and hop on the previous setting they picked.
Lastly, are there any plans to make the prices update live -- like every few seconds? I think this is a feature most people would like.

Ok, but I want to explore this comment a bit further. Why do you think/feel that it is to much to see (approx.) 200 coins at the same time on the screen, why do you want fewer?
Oh, the live thing... I were thinking about it but... It would probably require thousands of API calls per minute, which would kill the ratio I have very fast. I think that most sites that say they have "real time prices" is BS and they are just randomly letting prices tick up and down and maybe update them for real every 5 or 10 minute. Except maybe for some really big sites like CMC or coingecko that do there own data collection from exchanges. But still I think there is a lot of smoke and mirrors just to give the idea that something is happening on the screen.
