Hey HN,
Last month, I wanted to buy some Bitcoin and noticed something strange: the price was different on every exchange. Unlike the stock market, crypto doesn’t have one official price.
I tried using CoinMarketCap and other sites to compare prices, but they didn’t really help. So, I built Coinstate a simple, free tool that lets you see and compare live crypto prices from many exchanges in one place.
It currently pulls data from Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, OKX, KuCoin, HTX, Bybit, and Gate.io, with Crypto.com and Gemini coming soon. You can filter by trading pair, sort by price, and see near real-time updates, no signups, ads, or paywalls.
It’s a small side project, but it’s helped me find better prices when buying or selling. I’d love your feedback or ideas for improvement.
You can also sort by highest last, bid, or ask price. Here’s an example for Bitcoin: https://coinstate.co/compare/btc?sort=lastPrice
