CoinGecko is doing what is good for the crypto community. Although I'm using CMC everyday to track the price in the crypto market. Trust score will give us an idea on what exchanges that have real volume and stay from pump and dump exchanges. I've been trading for a while now and i experienced wash trading and it's common in majority of exchanges.

A good idea, I think it at least can protect beginners from scams, and ordinary users will be drawn to the exchanges with real volume.

It's needed in the crypto market, there are too many dodgy exchanges that are claiming millions of trades but really there is very little activity from users of the exchanges.

I don't know how they will actually do that though successfully as most exchanges are centralised. Great read though and a step forward, even if it's a small one.

Also great find with the blogging platform, i've signed up to that as well, they have over 9,000 signups and growing, i think they will take the crown of blogging platforms soon from Steemit.

in the article, it was clear that some exchanges took action by reporting fake trade volume and I think this will add to the confidence of investors to see the real trading volume of each exchange and coin,
fake trading volumes can hurt everyone because some exchanges also use bots to increase the volume of fake trades in crypto exchange.

Hello crypto lovers,

CoinGecko has added a Trust score to exchanges to try to fight fake exchange volumes, do you think this can work?

Also I would check out the platform that the article is written on. It's a new blogging platform where you get crypto for creating articles / upvoting articles. I have been using it for a month and I've already earned more than I had on Steemit.

I like using Coingecko now, with their new features, it offers a lot of data that can help you with all your analysis on what kind do you like to buy, this is a big help for investors  I used it together with Coinmarketcap for comparison, I started with CMC and very much used to it.

i just visit coingecko to see the trust score but unfortunately, the trust score is not shown.
Is there any setting that i need to do for the trust score to show?

At the end of the day, these trust doesn't justifythe truth or reality of the matter. The exchange itself is the best entity ti report the true volume and trading stats. Unti then, we'll just argue and argue but we won't actually know what's at stake. Anyways that was a nice move made by Coingecko

Coinmarketcap also should delist exchanges that will not provide real trading volumes. So why I should trust Coingecko while I can continue using coinmarketcap? Smiley

I wish it can work, because maybe only on this way the altcoins fake volume can be eliminated and see how much is the volume and the price can grow only if had real support and real trading, and i also see on some exchanges a lot of fake orders.

I don't know if it will work but doing that would certainly help users around the world. Whenever I check my ether wallet address and saw sudden changes of my portfolios worth I scroll what token or coins did it, I visit and thoroughly check their sites, market place9exchanges) just to see whether it is true because sometimes it was just fake orders that were bought, planning to pump the coin, so it is a job well done for that coingecko.

Yes definitely it will work say 70% because tracing all fake volumes is almost impossible. With more advancement of the trust score feature, just maybe this approach will curb fake volumes from some exchanges. It's really annoying.

I think this is a good solution to the problem of counterfeit volumes and yes I think it will work so that all exchanges are interested in presenting their real volumes as this is all reputation and it is important for everyone, but in general we will wait and hopefully see positive results.

I salute coingecko doggedness in fighting fake volume, exchange who can't do without fake volume will be exposed with the new development, coinmarketcap should learn from coingecko and use this method to report market volume.

HODLing is an art, not just a word...
i have always liked these other sites that didn't go the same way as coinmarketcap.com and instead have been trying to be different and fix their obvious mistakes. CoinGecko has always been among those sites that had nice features in their list to sort coins based on things that matter more than market capitalization but still it is not going to be enough because the market is still very chaotic and lots and lots of factors should be considered for every coin which makes it impossible to just come up with the best ones.
that extends to exchanges too. the Trust score they are using is good but it has a lot of room for error and if it takes off there are easy ways of manipulating it and faking it again.

You already have something similar on Coinmarketcap. You can check exchanges by their adjusted volume or reported volume. Since crypto exchanges are largely unregulated it is very tempting for exchange owners to have a bot do wash trades to increase their volume and thereby the listing fees they are able to demand from new coins that want to capture some of that volume.

This is old news.I highly doubt it will work.
I still don't know how this "trust score" is calculated and how it can be verified that the info backing the trust score is actually true.It might be fake as well.
Fake trading volume is a problem,but the solution is peer-to-peer trading,not false trust scores.

They are doing a good job for community and ecosystem but right now their system is not working properly.

I just check some pairs and they are not giving accurate results.

I don't know how the system works, but i will read into the article, regardless it is needed as there are too many exchanges that are claiming millions of dollars worth of trade when they simply don't have that amount and it is down to bot trading or exchanges owning accounts and moving around trades. I believe there needs to be more transparency when it comes to the exchanges as they are most centralised and we do not get to see how they work. If they were more open, it would build trust in the community.

Also thanks for sharing the blogging platform, I've been using it for a while and it's a great way to earn some crypto for free. I've already earned more than 6,000 HYDRO tokens and 1,500 Bounty0x tokens. It's nice to be able to earn a token that is listed on multiple exchanges as well as on CMC.

I believe that it's a good concept, but what I keep wondering is how they want to make this happen because the last time I checked, this exchanges are centralized and no one have access to their back end except from them, so this would be a very difficult task since it would be hard to know which volume is real and which is fake, though I would wait and see how they achieve it when they start.

It's an interesting concept, but how are they coming up with this trust score?

I would like to know more, because this has always been an issue in the crypto world.

Cheers for sharing the blogging platform the article is written on, signed up and already got hold of some tokens for simply upvoting an article (I've upvoted the article you shared as well).

I would recommend this website to all who want to earn tokens for free.
