 With new cryptocurrencies emerging it's vital to measure their status and opportunities before investing. In this article, we will discuss, "What is WorldCoinIndex? How Does It Work?" Let's take a closer look.

What is WorldCoinIndex?

WorldCoinIndex is a free online platform that keeps an eye on more than 3000 digital currencies and offers compiled data on their price changes, trading volume, and market capitalization, along with associated news that comes from integrated social media feeds.

Since its 2014 launch, WorldCoinIndex has been keeping an eye on more than 150 cryptocurrency exchanges and 15.000 cryptocurrency exchanges. As a result, it offers information on daily trade volume and open interest from more than 900 cryptocurrency derivatives contracts. The platform also allows for tracking Individual cryptocurrency holdings with gains that are calculated automatically.

How does WorldCoinIndex work?

Every few seconds, WorldCoinIndex tracks the performance of the price of the digital coin and uses the average weighted price formula to determine its value. Then, based on their 24-hour trading volume, the tool ranks the top-performing cryptocurrencies.

The website provides digital asset prices simultaneously in Bitcoin (BTC) and 13 other major fiat currencies, including the US and Canadian dollars, the Euro, the British pound, the Turkish lira, and the Chinese yuan.

On WorldCoinIndex, however, only Bitcoin is available in a variety of fiat currencies. Since Bitcoin is the most well-known and commonly used digital currency, each BTC-fiat pair has its own Bitcoin Price Index. The average BTC price on the top cryptocurrency Exchanges are represented by the Bitcoin Price Index when compared to the respective fiat currencies.

All other digital coins are denoted in BTC or currencies like Ethereum (ETH) or Tether (USDT) and their price indexes are calculated based on the Bitcoin Price Index.
