Metamask-extension: USD conversion not always accurate (e.g. OMG token)

[joeytwiddle]

Describe the bug
I have a few OmiseGO tokens in my wallet. But the USD value displayed below them is inaccurate!

It is displaying 6.14 USD per OMG today, but the real exchange rate today is around 3.39 USD per OMG.

The 6.14 exchange rate _was accurate_ around 31st July, so possibly the exchange which MetaMask uses to grab exchange rates dropped OMG at that time.

Expected behavior
With 2 OMG in my wallet, I would expect to see ~6.78 USD displayed below it.
But I am actually seeing ~12.27 USD displayed below it.

Browser details (please complete the following information):

• Using Google Chrome on Mac, MetaMask v4.9.2, Beta UI

Additional info
I tried hiding and then re-adding the OMG token (inspired by https://github.com/MetaMask/metamask-extension/issues/2240#issuecomment-333267521) but still see the same values.

This might be an issue with the Balanc3 API we use to pull current token conversions, we're investigating.

Balanc3 has identified the issue and is working on a fix

@bdresser How does a token get listed in Balanc3 API?
Some of my token has USD value on coin market cap/etherscan, but not in metamask

@williamchong007 can you give examples of which tokens?

[williamchong]

@danfinlay These are the 2 I use mostly

LIKE:

MDT:

https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/measurable-data-token/

but even ZRX does not show conversion as of 5.0.2

According to the balanc3 team, this would be fixed by https://github.com/MetaMask/metamask-extension/pull/5744

[williamchong]

With 5.0.3 I am always getting No Conversion Rate Available for all ERC20 tokens now
Is it expected behaviour? @bdresser

[bdresser]

Definitely not @williamchong007, I'm seeing the same and filed in https://github.com/MetaMask/metamask-extension/issues/5855.

Other teammates are having trouble reproducing so it seems like it's not affecting everyone. We'll update on that other thread.
