How To Use The Forbes Digital Assets Watchlist

Dear Web 3 investors, NFT collectors and all the crypto-curious, 

The @ForbesCrypto team has been hard at work for the past few months developing the ultimate platform to help navigate the world of crypto and blockchain—Forbes Digital Assets—our all-in-one platform which includes news, market data, analysis, in-house research and virtual events covering all corners of the blockchain world.

To help get you started we’re launching Watchlist, a feature located in the top right section of the Forbes Digital Assets landing page that lets you track the performance of your favorite cryptocurrencies, be it Bitcoin, Solana or one of the smaller altcoins. Think of it as a way to bookmark assets you discover on Forbes in real time, for future exploration.

If you don’t have a registered Forbes account or simply haven’t signed in, your watchlist will by default consist of Bitcoin, Ether and Litecoin, reflecting their current prices and 24-hour performance. Once you sign in, it’s tabula rasa! All you should see is the green circled cross button at the center of your watchlist. 

You can start making selections by scrolling down to the “Leaders and Laggards” segment of the main page, which shows the best and worst performers in the past 24 hours among cryptocurrencies that Forbes tracks. To view all available assets, click the corresponding link at the bottom of this section or select the “Assets” tab at the top of the main page. To remove an asset, click on ‘Edit’ in the top right corner of the Watchlist window and press the Remove button next to it.

Forbes currently tracks the 85 largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, but more will be added as we continue to enhance our platform. The tokens are ranked by “Impact”—a metric we have developed to address discrepancies in market cap calculations and the corresponding rankings of cryptocurrencies across several major platforms providing this data. Every cryptocurrency has a dedicated page with basic information about the asset, a price chart and accompanying data across various time periods as well as prices listed on major cryptocurrency exchanges such as Coinbase Pro and Gemini.

For context and further guidance, head to the News and Research section in the Dashboard tab featuring stories and research reports from our experts in data, crypto regulation, taxation and other relevant fields. We also regularly host webinars and panels with top executives and specialists to discuss emerging trends and investment strategies, where you can bring your pressing questions. All sessions are recorded and available on demand in the Events tab. 

And lastly, as the popular saying goes: “When in doubt, zoom out,”—and we mean it in the broadest sense. For the serious investor, looking for in-depth, regular insights, nothing beats the Forbes CryptoAsset & Blockchain Advisor, our monthly newsletter keeping you informed of all the nascent trends. But there’s no ultimate guide for investing in emerging assets and technologies so make sure to use other resources and platforms (other than Twitter and Discord) when building your watchlist. And if you have any questions, come to us!
