Hello everyone! CoinGecko is introducing "Trust Score" to combat fake exchange volume. From today onwards, we won't be sorting exchanges by reported volume but will take into account web traffic and orderbook data.  Grin

Full announcement: https://blog.coingecko.com/trust-score/

Great to be acknowledge by CZ from Binance and CoinDesk:

Check it out and let us know what you think!

So you are going to track the web traffic towards all crypto exchanges?That doesn't seem like a valid measure.Web traffic can be faked pretty easily as well.Their orderbook data can be faked as well.
They only to combat fake trading volume is to adopt decentralized exchanges,where nobody can mess around with the trading volumes.
