What “live” means in Cexorer and how to reason about lag
Cexorer is designed for live operational checks, but live does not mean perfect simultaneity with every exchange and network condition. Freshness depends on provider availability, updater health, queue health, and the exchange-side state itself.
Why live data can still lag
Even a well-monitored exchange route board can lag temporarily because upstream APIs fail, maintenance windows hide or delay route changes, or background update jobs encounter retry conditions.
That is why route monitoring should be treated as an operational edge, not as an unconditional guarantee.
How to read freshness responsibly
Use the board to narrow decision space quickly, then verify the final route on the exchange side before moving meaningful capital. This is especially important during maintenance events or when a route just changed state.
- Use alerts to surface changes, not to outsource final verification
- Re-check fee and minimum context when a route reopens
- Expect that exchange-side UI or status pages may disagree temporarily
What to do when a route looks stale
If a route appears inconsistent, compare the live board with the exchange UI, inspect coin-level event history, and avoid making a high-confidence assumption from a single stale-looking datapoint.
FAQ
Does Cexorer guarantee zero delay?
No. Cexorer is designed to react fast, but exchange APIs, queues, and third-party delivery can still introduce delay.
Can alerts arrive after the route has changed again?
Yes, in edge cases. Alerts are helpful, but final route verification still matters before sending funds.
Why keep using the board if lag is possible?
Because even with occasional lag, a normalized live board plus history and alerts is operationally far better than checking many exchange pages manually.
