Why the steem price is showing as 0.36 usd in bittrex where as it is showing as 0.54 in coinmarketcap? Which one is true?
I think that is one price manipulation. Hmm ... yes manipulation, that's why i dont trust coinmarketcap.
It's happened in vebitcoin too, that the price is already $ 4.31.
In my view, That happened because the scope of the calculation of capitalization and total transactions in the STEEM market was still limited, not globally. So, there will be a big difference, but the difference only occurs in a short time.
In essence, at that time, indeed at the exchange that Coinmarketcap noted, there was a surge in demand, but it did not occur in other exchanges.

Interesting. I didn’t realize that there was such a wide discrepancy. It’s good to know that steem is actually trading for much higher than coinmarketcap is claiming.
