Has anyone seen this?

On coinmarketcap, historical value of bitcoin on 6th of Oct 2019 is 7,988.16 for Close.

Closing price for same date (checked on tradingview on multiple exchanges, and Bitstamp directly) was 7860 usd.

That's almost 2% increase for coinmarketcap. Wonder if they purposely screwing people...



There are always discrepancies with coinmarketcap.com's data. This is not the first time, nor will this be the last one. If you are certain that it is not due to its data being average prices among all CMC listed exchanges, there's definitely something wrong with it. Anyway, there's no big deal to this really. For sure, you will not base your trading on the prices on coinmarketcap. Better use your preferred trading exchange when checking the actual traded price.
