At DexGuru we're 100% committed to delivering the most accurate and complete data about on-chain markets as fast as possible to our community and users.
{% hint style="success" %} We have invested heavily in our data infrastructure. For each chain that we support, we run our own blockchain nodes in the network. As a result, we're able to retrieve on-chain transaction data as they occur in real time directly from the blockchain and display it on Dexguru with as minimal latency as possible. {% endhint %}
All market data displayed on DexGuru is from on-chain transactions. However, we have included the usage of limited amount of supplemental off-chain data sources to help us provide additional information and context for a better user experience. An example of off-chain data in DexGuru UI is the token logos or information about verified tokens.
For more details, visit data-completeness.md and off-chain-data-usage.md sections_._
Data displayed on DexGuru is relayed from our blockchain nodes as soon as they pick it up and retrieve it directly from the blockchain. Under normal circumstances, you can expect the data to be live and have minimal latency.
If you need to receive data even faster, you may need to run your own nodes!
Yes! We have an API for developers. Visit our Public API documentaion for more information on how to get started.
We currently support Ethereum, BSC, Polygon, FTM, Arbitrum, Optimism, Gnosis, Celo & Avalanche. Our team is always adding and supporting EVM-compatible chains on the DexGuru platform. We're also in the progress of adding some non-EVM chains, so keep on the look out!
For the most complete and updated list of chains on DexGuru, please visit supported-chains.md.
We prioritize in covering the most popular DEXs on all the chains that we support. For a complete list of supported DEXs, please visit supported-dexs.mdor check our Dex Metrics page for live data.
{% hint style="info" %} We're always striving to connect all major DEXs/AMMs with significant trading volume. {% endhint %}

As mentioned above, we're always looking to add the most popular Chains and corresponding DEXs/AMMs in their ecosystems.
If there is a particular chain that you would really love to see on DexGuru, hop onto our discord server and let us in the #suggestions channel.

Token prices on DexGuru are derived from the latest real-time on-chain buy/sell transactions from DEXs (Decentralized Exchanges/AMMs) that we cover as explained above. Whilst the prices you see on CoinMarketCap & CoinGecko are calculated using an average of prices from CEXs (Centralized Exchanges), even if they are illiquid.
As mentioned above, Token prices on DexGuru are derived from the latest real-time on-chain buy/sell transactions from DEXs (Decentralized Exchanges/AMMs) that we cover. There might be slight deviations in the token price if a Token is also being actively traded on a DEX/AMM that we do currently do not support.
In addition, other sites and wallets have their own methodology in which they determine the token price, you'll have to ask them how they arrive at their prices!
I found token buy/sell and liquidity transactions on Etherscan/Blockchain Explorer that are not showing up on Dexguru.
If these transactions are occurring on a DEX/AMM that is currently not supported on DexGuru then it won't show up. We do our best to cover all the major DEXs/AMMs that have high liquidity and volume.
Please check our supported-dexs.md to see if the transaction occurred on a DexGuru supported DEX/AMM.
If you believe you found an exception to this case, where a transaction on a supported DEX/AMM is not showing or being accounted for, please send a message on #support-dexguru channel on our discord.
DexGuru is a fully permission-less. Tokens are automatically listed/indexed onto DexGuru as long as they have liquidity and transactions on one of the DEXs that we support listed above. We don't manually list or blacklist any tokens.
If you're trying to search using the Token name, try using the contract address for more accurate results. Sometimes there may be issues with the name in the token contract making it difficult for it be searched and found.
Additionally, if the Token has no liquidity or transactions on one of the supported-dexs.md above then it won't be indexed on DexGuru.
Tokens on the trending tab are based on a ranking methodology involving trading activity from Whales (Heavy Trader with $500k+ of trading volume in the last 30 days). This is completely done automatically based on the formula we've implemented.
F_or more details regarding the methodology, please visit_ trending-tab.md.
{% hint style="info" %}
We have not, and will not ever promote any tokens on DexGuru. If you find that questionable tokens are appearing in the DexGuru trending tab, please note that some token may developers deploy different wash trading strategies to game trending status across different platforms to achieve visibility.
As always, please DYOR before investing in any tokens.

Everything on DexGuru has UTC time.
