Coinmarketcap API Review
Unleash the Power of Cryptocurrency Data with Coinmarketcap's Top-Ranked API
CoinMarketCap is a popular website for checking cryptocurrency prices and metrics. It has a public and professional API, with the latter announced in August 2018 for more business use cases and the addition of derivatives data. However, the accuracy of the data and the exchanges it's sourced from have been questioned, with reports of wash trading. Developers are subject to strict rate limiting, but the new professional tier may offer a solution at a cost. Developers are also concerned about the website's tendency to delist coins without notice, affecting developed programs that depend on the data.
