Questions about Bitcoin

Answered from today's data, regenerated every day

Why is Bitcoin trending today?

Bitcoin appears on 4 national trending lists (India, Japan, Thailand and 1 others) and scores 22 out of 100 on the combined trend score, which puts it at rank 13 worldwide today. The score is built from its position in the CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap trending feeds, how many countries list it and whether Binance marks it as hot. It measures attention only — nothing in it reflects the price direction.

Is Bitcoin a buy right now?

This site does not give recommendations. What the data shows: the daily technical model scores 70 out of 100 on 10 checks, which reads as buy, while the hype-risk score is 10/100 (low). Those two numbers answer different questions, and a high trending rank is not part of either.

How risky is Bitcoin compared with other trending coins?

Its hype-risk score is 10 out of 100, a low reading. The largest contributors are days on the trending list (2 consecutive days) and 7-day price change. The score is six measures added together and it is recalculated every day, so it moves as the coin ages on the list.

What is the BTC price and how much has it moved?

Bitcoin trades at $76,348 at the last daily close, -0.1% over 24 hours and -0.5% over seven days, +18.3% over thirty. Prices on this site come from the daily close at 00:00 UTC and are not live quotes.

How long has Bitcoin been trending?

It has been on the list for 2 consecutive days, with a best position of 2. Persistence is part of the picture: the longer a coin stays, the less of the risk score comes from novelty.
