Live crypto prices and conversion
The CryptoBear converter pulls live market prices from CoinGecko so you can see what any amount of crypto is worth in your local currency. Prices are aggregated across many exchanges and may differ slightly from the price on a single platform.
How often do prices update?
Prices refresh every time you convert and automatically every 60 seconds.
How crypto prices are quoted
A crypto price is the last price at which the coin traded against another currency, most often US dollars or a dollar stablecoin such as USDT or USDC. Because crypto trades around the clock on many exchanges at once, prices can differ slightly between platforms, and the converter shows a market reference price rather than the exact amount you would get on any one exchange.
Why the price you pay can be different
- Spread. The gap between the best buy and sell prices on an exchange. It is usually small for Bitcoin and Ethereum and wider for smaller coins.
- Fees. Trading fees and any markup built into instant-buy prices reduce what you receive.
- Slippage. Large orders, or orders in thinly traded coins, can fill at worse prices than the quote.
- Timing. Prices move quickly, so a conversion can change in the seconds between checking and trading.
Common conversions
Bitcoin is divisible to eight decimal places. The smallest unit, one satoshi, is 0.00000001 BTC, so you never need to buy a whole coin. Ether divides to 18 decimal places. Stablecoins such as USDT and USDC aim to stay at $1, which makes them a convenient way to hold dollar value on an exchange, though they carry their own issuer and platform risks.
