Learn how Rateya summarizes several public USDT/SDG P2P advertisements, filters outliers, and reports a reference without relying on one ad.
Why the P2P reference can differ from a general FX feed
Sudanese-pound quotes available in peer-to-peer markets may not match generalized exchange-rate feeds. P2P advertisements are individual offers: each can be shaped by payment method, order size, liquidity, and the advertiser’s terms. Rateya therefore labels this value as a P2P reference instead of presenting it as an official rate or a guaranteed cash quote.
The asset pair is USDT/SDG
Rateya reads public USDT/SDG P2P ads. USDT is designed to track the US dollar, but it is a crypto asset and can trade above or below one dollar in actual markets. A USDT/SDG reference should not be described as an exact price for physical US dollar notes. This distinction matters when cash and crypto markets are not priced the same way.
Why Rateya uses several ads
Using only the first ad can let a single unusual offer dominate the reference. Rateya requests multiple listings from each available market side, avoids counting the same advertisement ID twice, filters statistical outliers when there are enough observations, and calculates the median of the remaining prices for each side. The median is less sensitive than a mean to one extreme observation.
How the final reference is formed
When representative values are available on both sides, Rateya uses their midpoint as a neutral reference. If one side is temporarily unavailable, the available side can be used and marked as partial. If P2P data cannot be retrieved, the site may use the general currency provider as a fallback. The page’s source label is important: it tells readers whether the value is P2P, a manual override, or a fallback.
What a visitor should check before trading
Read the full advertisement, not just the headline price. Confirm that your amount is within the order limits, that the payment method is available to you, and that the advertiser’s terms and history suit your needs. Use the platform’s official order flow and follow its safety guidance. Do not rely on Rateya to reserve a listing, verify a counterparty, or guarantee an offer.
Known limitations
Public offers may be sparse, change quickly, or be unavailable. The displayed sample is not a complete record of every possible transaction or payment method. Rateya’s median is a transparent calculation over the retrieved sample, not an independent assessment of every merchant or an assurance of transaction safety.
