What Biscoint does

Biscoint (legal entity CBTC SERVICOS DIGITAIS LTDA) is a Brazilian cryptocurrency price comparison platform founded in 2016 and headquartered in Navegantes, Brazil. The platform connects via API to approximately 30 cryptocurrency exchanges operating in Brazil and aggregates real-time Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT, and USDC prices across these venues, ranking them by effective price after transaction fees. Its product surface includes a web-based Price Comparator, Buy and Sell interfaces, an Exchanges directory with live order book and volume data, an Indexes tracker, an embeddable Widget, and the Biscoint Lite mobile app for iOS and Android.

The core technology is an API-based price aggregation layer that normalizes fee-inclusive effective prices from multiple independent exchange order books and presents them in a unified ranked view. Biscoint itself does not custody or execute trades; users select an exchange from the ranking and are redirected to the partner platform to complete transactions, creating a top-of-funnel comparison layer for the Brazilian retail crypto market.

The business model is freemium for end users, with revenue generated exclusively through affiliate and referral fees paid by partner exchanges when users click through and transact. Following its July 2022 merger with Bitypreço, Biscoint users gained access to PRO trading features (limit orders, stop-loss), while transactional activity and user funds were migrated to the related Bitybank digital wallet and crypto card platform. Biscoint continues to operate its comparison service and serves as the public-facing lead-generation surface for the broader Bity ecosystem.

Direct peers

• CoinGecko: Global crypto data aggregator that ranks exchanges and surfaces effective prices across thousands of trading pairs. Most direct functional peer to Biscoint's price-comparison and exchange-market-share model, just at global rather than Brazilian scale.
• CoinMarketCap: Long-standing crypto market-data aggregator with exchange-level pricing, volume, and liquidity rankings. Mirrors Biscoint's core value proposition of letting users identify where crypto trades cheapest, with deeper coverage and global reach.
• Coinpaprika: Independent crypto market aggregator providing prices, volumes and exchange-level data. Functionally aligned with Biscoint as a multi-exchange data aggregator with a comparable self-serve, comparison-led experience.
• LiveCoinWatch: Crypto price tracking site that aggregates prices and volumes across exchanges and ranks venues by metrics. Closely parallels Biscoint's "rank exchanges by effective price" UX for retail crypto buyers.
• CryptoCompare: Crypto market-data platform aggregating prices, order book, and exchange quality data; offers institutional and retail data products. Comparable data-aggregation and exchange-rating franchise to Biscoint, with stronger B2B and institutional monetization.

Emerging players

• CoinCodex: Smaller crypto data aggregator offering exchange prices, news, and portfolio tools. Niche peer to Biscoint focused on retail price comparison rather than enterprise data feeds.
• Coinigy: Multi-exchange crypto trading terminal and data aggregator that connects to numerous venues via API. Overlaps Biscoint on the "one screen, many exchanges" model but leans into active trading rather than retail price discovery.

Broad incumbents

• TradingView: Multi-asset charting and analytics platform that also covers crypto exchanges and prices. Adjacent competitor on charting and cross-exchange comparison, but operates globally across asset classes far beyond Biscoint's crypto/Brazil scope.
• Mercado Bitcoin: Largest Brazilian crypto exchange and one of Biscoint's top affiliate destinations (~21% of tracked volume). A broad incumbent in Biscoint's home market that also consumes Biscoint's comparison traffic as a referral source.

Others

• Bitypreço (merged with Biscoint): Brazilian crypto comparison platform that merged with Biscoint in July 2022 and now operates the combined company's PRO trading interface. Now part of the same corporate entity rather than a true competitor, but historically the closest Brazilian peer.
