I am used to use Coinmarketcap and not all of its alternatives. But still I am waiting for the day when Coinmarketcap become trustworthy and provide us only with real statistics, especially about the real trading volume.

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.

Well, both are good in their own ways but CMC looks more advanced than its counterpart. The reason is this, CMC has more tools and services which makes users feel free to use it. Also, to list on CMC be it coins or tokens or exchanges there are certain pre-requistes to meet and once achieved they will be listed. But same isn't like in coingecko as listing is quite easy and which is why most upcoming projects always list there first before moving to CMC. Thus you can see that even when listed on coingecko, projects will still strive to list on CMC because it offers more exposure and it is still well renowned..

When 2017 I often check new tokens/coins or exchangers at CoinMarketcap and still don't know anything else. But after my friend's suggestion to try to check dicoingecko until the platform made a benchmark for me.

I prefer CMC over Coingecko because in CMC it is easier to get information from the coins we are looking for. in my opinion CMC is still more popular than coingecko even though the number of coins registered at coingecko is more numerous.

Coinmarket cap only list coins that comply on their requirements that's why CMC listing coins is hard for coins that did start early all thier development.  While coingecko listing are so very easy and even coins or tokens that already listed in exchanges you can still search this in Coingecko.

Your observation is right and Its more so because of the requirements to be listed on CMC other than the cost which is comparative high on CMC compared to Coingecko.

To my knowledge, if a token and coin are attached to a coin market, the owner of the coin must pay the coin market to be registered and must have at least two exchanges for the coin.
If that is clear friends, because what you say is a minimum requirement that must be met by the project or token in order to be registered
in CMC and Coingecko.

It is true, that is the minimum requirement for the requirements that must be met by the project. however, if a project has good prospects they will definitely glance at some large exchanges. so that the objectives of the project itself will be achieved.

Both Coinmarketcap and Coingecko are good resource tools that i believe every crypto enthusiasts rely on to check the stats of any cryptocurrency. The difference that i have noted among the two is that Coinmarketcap only lists cryptocurrencies that are being traded on at least two exchanges but coingecko list any coin which has been launched into this space. I don't really know what metrics that coingecko really uses, anybody cares to share with me?
In short, coingecko is more comprehensive while CMC stick to their old format and they will delist the coins if it's also delisted in exchanges that resulted to not passing the requirements of at least traded in two exchanges.

CMC is the first in the space, so it has gain a lot of users compared to coingecko but coingecko is such a great alternative which from time to time we can check if we can't find a particular information in CMC.

CMC is a bigger network of cryptocommunities than coingecko. I dont use coingecko for monitoring coins or tokens only CMC but I already see their UI design and features. Almost same, the only advantage of coingecko is you can actually see a lot than CMC cause of their easy application.

Coingecko is newer and fresher than CMC, it serves us more modern UI and their google SEO is also nice when we search coin price on google sometimes coingecko is surpassing CMC in the list. So i think coingecko is the biggest rival for CMC and also it serves many features.

Both are good ones. But I think coinmarketcap is more popular and have huge restrictions on listing coins. May be coingecko is easier to list. Also check worldcoinindex. Thats also useful.

It saddens my heart badly if the tokens I have is not listed on CMC. CMC helps me to monitor their price, circulating supply and to know their rank. When tokens is not listed on CMC, I find it hard to trade on them easily. I do assume they are just a flop if they're not listed on CMC yet

I do love coinmarketcap and coingecko as I see both as instrument for analysis and updates so both keeps good record and are very useful in the market. So I can't say any is better but I love both.

They have both been very useful to crypto users for so long already.
Though someone should not rely the accuracy of the data, still they are good reference points and it comes in handy.
They are those sites that I always check into if I need immediate data for a specific coin or project.
It is like your starting point and then if you want to study more of the project, you can check the links that come with it.
Yes, those were like starters to the cryptocurrency network. Most of the cryptocurrency users prefer this to be the reference point to analyse and invest. Personally whenever I brief someone about cryptocurrency I used to show them the websites coinmarketcap and coingecko, on seeing such a big list of cryptocurrencies people will gain trust on it and gets much more interest to know more.

because registration at coingecko is easier to differ from cmc they have to pay and submit valid data to be registered in cmc and i think cmc is better than coingecko

but I prefer CMC, I mostly check the crypto market at CMC. I have never seen Coingecko, but I am already comfortable in a coinmarket stamp, after all, there is a conversion of crypto to local currency which makes me even more comfortable.

They are both the same purpose, I use CMC more often, but coingecko is useful too. Informations on CMC seem to be more accurate, it's not too fast about listing coins and price. But when listing things done, I think it's more reliable. That's my opinion though.
Coingecko is provide more accurate date,volume than Coinmarketcap. Coingecko is listing a lot of cryptocurrency even which some are not listed in CMC i think it’s a good side. CMC didn’t delist scam exchanges and scam tokens likes idax.pro exists scam in the previous week. Both of exchanges features are a lot of difference. P2PB2B,Exrates is top ranking exchanges in CMC but you can check coingecko.          
The calculation that already used by both are different but CMC looks used the crap method to calculate the daily volume trade, those crap exchange sites placed at bottom on coingecko. based on my experience and coingecko is much more credible compared with CMC. i don't why but CMC looks a very crap Mcap site right now. It looks like CMC is getting paid for manipulate the data. lol
