Circulating Supply Verification on CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko

What does circulating supply verification include?

Circulating supply verification is the justification of which tokens are available to the market now, and which cannot yet be considered circulating. We align the project's calculation with token distribution and available lock data, so that the platform editor can understand the logic behind the figure.

It is important not to mix circulating supply, total supply, and maximum supply in the calculation. For example, tokens in a vesting contract, unvested allocations, and treasury reserves may require separate explanation. Burning is accounted for only in accordance with what actually happened and is confirmed by data.

We help prepare materials for CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko, but we do not substitute their methodology with our own. The final figure may differ if platforms classify addresses differently or apply different rules. Details about the listing service are collected on the CoinMarketCap page, and the submission process for CoinGecko is described in the CoinGecko listing section.

What data is needed to verify supply on CoinGecko?

To verify supply on CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap, prepare a reproducible calculation and evidence for each significant token category. A single final figure is usually not enough: the project team needs to show where it came from and which balances are excluded from circulation.

Before starting, gather:

• contract address and link to the network explorer;
• supply distribution by category and address, if available;
• information about locked tokens, vesting conditions, and unlocks;
• explanation of treasury reserves and their usage;
• burn data, if it affects the calculation;
• current tokenomics materials and link to official project sources.

Verify that figures and category names match across documentation, website, and submission form. If lock conditions have changed, attach current evidence and note what changed. Do not present an unverified address as locked: this creates a contradiction that is harder to resolve than explaining the limitation in advance. Additional calculation principles are covered in the supply guide.

How does preparation and data submission work?

The work proceeds from auditing source information to supporting the platform's response. This order helps detect discrepancies before submission and deliver the calculation in a form that can be verified against sources.

First, we review contracts, tokenomics, and current public information. Then we create a category table: what is included in circulation, what is excluded, and on what basis. If project data differs across sources, we record the discrepancy and agree on a correct explanation with the team, rather than masking it.

After that, we prepare materials for submission to CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko and check them for internal consistency. On request, we help address clarifications and prepare responses with evidence. Timeline is calculated after initial document review: it depends on distribution complexity, on-chain data availability, and the speed of information provided by the team. We do not state an update date in advance as a fact. If you need to update not supply but contract or brand information, consider the migration and rebranding service.

What will you receive as a result?

You will receive a consistent package of materials to justify circulating supply, not just a submitted form. It clearly shows how the figure was derived and where to verify key assumptions.

The scope includes:

• analysis of source data and identification of inconsistencies;
• supply category table with explanation of what is included in circulation and what is excluded;
• list of links and evidence to verify claimed locks and distribution;
• textual explanation of the calculation methodology for platform materials;
• preparation and support of submission to agreed platforms;
• assistance with responses to clarifications related to the submitted data.

Before work begins, we define which networks, contracts, and platforms are included in the scope. If the project uses multiple contracts or has changed tokenomics, list this in advance: such information changes the verification scope. It is also useful to update basic token information in explorers; for this, the token information update in explorer service is available. Current pricing and cooperation format can be clarified via the contacts page.

What can affect the verification result?

The acceptance and display of the value are influenced by CoinMarketCap or CoinGecko methodology, completeness of evidence, and address classification. We can be responsible for the quality of the agreed package and the completed submission, but we do not control the platform's internal decision.

We cannot promise acceptance of a specific figure, exact update date, token price, organic volume, or viral effect. We also cannot guarantee the same value across different services: their algorithms, evidence requirements, and review processes may differ. This is not a reason to adjust the calculation; it is better to disclose the methodology and show verifiable sources.

Before agreeing on the result, check:

• can each exclusion from circulation be matched to an address or document;
• are locked tokens not included in the market-available supply;
• does the distribution description match current vesting conditions;
• do figures not contradict each other in the application and public materials.

If the platform shows a warning or requires profile correction, first find out the specific reason and prepare evidence. For such tasks, listing profile recovery is provided. The general catalog of procedures and related services is in the listings and verification section.

When should circulating supply data be updated?

An update is needed when the information underlying the calculation has changed, or the public value no longer reflects current distribution. Do not wait until the discrepancy becomes noticeable in several places: first record the change, then synchronize explanations and sources.

Reasons to review the package may include token unlock, new distribution among categories, changes in vesting rules, reserve movements, or correction of burn data. For each change, save the event date, link to evidence, and explanation of the impact on circulating supply. If the event does not change the calculation, it is also useful to explain this to avoid the appearance of contradiction.

First update the project's primary materials, then align the information in CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko forms and profiles. Ensure that the same terms are used in tokenomics, on the website, and in the application. If the update is related to a change in contract address or project name, coordinate it with the separate migration and rebranding process, rather than sending unrelated edits without context.

How it works

1. Initial reviewWe examine the contract, tokenomics, distribution, and project materials. We identify gaps and contradictions before preparing the application.
2. Calculation cross-checkWe separate circulating and excluded categories, and record the basis and sources for key figures.
3. Material preparationWe formalize the methodology explanation and evidence in an agreed format for CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko.
4. SubmissionWe align the package with your team and support the data transfer to the selected platforms.
5. Responses and updatesWe help address clarifications on the submitted information and coordinate further data updates.
