Sources and methodology

Our routes come only from verified market-pair rows in our database. We use web research and CoinMarketCap news for background and risk context. Information from CoinMarketCap page scrapes is treated as low-confidence context. Live market values like price and volume are omitted because they change too frequently for a static guide.
