Where does that Price come from?

0.04.00 - 0.07.00 Good morning and welcome to Bitcoin on the Beach

0.07.00 - 0.09.00 I thought this morning what I would do is I would explain

0.10.00 - 0.14.00 what the difference is between the actual Price of Bitcoin that you might receive

0.14.00 - 0.15.00 when you go to buy or sell it

0.15.00 - 0.19.00 and what you actually see on CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap.

0.19.00 - 0.22.00 So when you go to CoinGecko or CoinMarketCap

0.22.00 - 0.23.00 What you're seeing is

0.23.00 - 0.27.00 a collection of Prices that those websites have gone to

0.33.00 - 0.35.00 and taken the prices from and then done a summary

0.35.00 - 0.37.00 and that's what they're going to show you.

0.37.00 - 0.39.00 that's not necessarily the price

0.39.00 - 0.40.00 that you'll get

0.40.00 - 0.41.00 when you go to Buy or Sell it

0.41.00 - 0.42.00 you can then go to your Exchange

0.42.00 - 0.45.00 so if you have an account at Coinbase let's say

0.45.00 - 0.48.00 you would go to Coinbase and take a look at what that price is

0.49.00 - 0.50.00 You can look at what that price is on Coinbase

0.50.00 - 0.52.00 versus the price that you're actually seeing on

0.52.00 - 0.54.00 CoinGecko or CoinMarketCap

0.54.00 - 0.56.00 and you can see that there's a difference

1.02.00 - 1.05.00 when you go to buy it you would have to buy it at Coinbase's Price

1.05.00 - 1.09.00 You couldn't Buy it at what CoinGecko or CoinMarketCap are showing you

1.09.00 - 1.12.00 because those are a collection of Prices from various exchanges, it's a summary.

1.12.00 - 1.16.00 It's different, by the way, than what you normally see in the US equities markets

1.16.00 - 1.20.00 or most equities markets where there's a consolidated tape.

1.20.00 - 1.24.00 That if you're looking at the Price on Coinbase

1.24.00 - 1.26.00 Then you look over there at the Price on Kraken

1.26.00 - 1.32.00 and you wanna Sell your Bitcoin that you have on Coinbase at Kraken

1.32.00 - 1.34.00 Well you can't do it unless you move it to Kraken

1.34.00 - 1.38.00 And you can do that over the networks, it does cost

1.38.00 - 1.40.00 That's where this Gas Fee comes in but you can do it.

1.40.00 - 1.43.00 But then you have to remember your keys.

1.43.00 - 1.47.00 If you forget your keys you lose your Bitcoin.
