Touchstone.

The amount is in the asset's own decimals, not dollars

USDC uses 6 decimals. Most BNB Chain tokens use 18. Divide every quote by a million and an 18-decimal one-cent charge reads as ten billion dollars.

What to do: Read the asset address, look up its decimals, then convert. Never assume six.

Cost me a nearly-published accusation against CoinMarketCap. 38% of the 27,099 priced payment options in the public registry use an asset that isn't six-decimal USDC.
