Where does this price come from?

This is a daily close in US dollars — one number per day, not a live tick. History comes from Coin Metrics and the current day from CoinGecko, both of which build a volume-weighted composite across venues rather than quoting any single order book. So it will not match the last trade you saw on one exchange, and it is not meant to: a composite is the right input to a chart that spans years.

Price is the one number here we do not compute ourselves. Everything else on this site is derived from a full node we run — supply, fees, pool balances, flows — and is exact because consensus makes it exact. Price has no consensus value; it is an external observation, and every chart that multiplies by it inherits that. That is why market cap and the valuation series are estimates while supply is not.

The moving averages are weekly, not daily. The 50- and 200-week weekly moving averages (WMAs) are the long-cycle version of the familiar 50/200-day pair: they are slow on purpose, and they are there to show where multi-year support has sat, not to time anything. A cross means the last four years disagreed with the last year; it does not mean tomorrow.

For price against what the average coin actually cost, see realized price — the gap between the two is the metric most of this site's valuation work is built on.
