HBAR Price: Average USD Conversion

Overview​

The HBAR Price statistic provides the latest price of HBAR, aggregated from multiple sources. This statistic is essential for tracking the value of HBAR in real time and analyzing price trends over different timeframes. Minute-level granularity is now available for high-frequency price tracking.

Hedera Data Access

To access this Hedera network statistic (and others) via Hgraph's GraphQL & REST APIs, get started here.

Hedera Stat Name: avg_usd_conversion

Methodology​

  • Data Sources: Binance, Bybit, OKX, Bitget and MEXC
  • Aggregation:
    • The average of candlestick closing prices for a given period for the HBAR/USDT pair on the five major exchanges by trading volume was calculated.
    • The price is multiplied by 100,000 for integer representation for each time period.

Data Representation​

Each period represents the latest available HBAR price at the given timestamp. This metric is useful for tracking price fluctuations and market trends.

Additional Notes​

  • HBAR price fluctuations can be influenced by market conditions, trading volume, and broader crypto trends.
  • Minute-level data provides real-time price tracking and is retained for 72 hours to balance data freshness with storage efficiency.
  • Future enhancements may include price history tracking, moving averages, and volatility analysis.
