## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).

## 🪙 Crypto Price Comparison Across Global Exchanges (USD)

**Stop overpaying for crypto.** Every exchange prices the same coin differently - this actor shows you the price on **all the major global exchanges at once** and flags the **cheapest** one, so you always buy at the best price (and spot arbitrage gaps).

![Crypto price comparison across exchanges](https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/5kEKautOrkY0cFH1G/records/crypto-table-en.png)

Compares **Binance, OKX, Bybit, Bitget, KuCoin, Crypto.com, Gate.io, Kraken, NovaDAX and Mercado Bitcoin** in a single call. For each coin: the price on **every exchange (USD)**, the **cheapest** and **most expensive** exchange, the spread, the best **arbitrage** opportunity, plus key market data. **One row per coin** - export to CSV/Excel or call the Standby API.

### What you get (per coin)

| Group | Fields |
|---|---|
| **Identity** | `coinId`, `symbol`, `name`, `snapshotAt` |
| **Price** | `priceUsd`, `avgPriceUsd`, `minPriceUsd`, `maxPriceUsd` |
| **Spread / arbitrage** | `priceSpreadPct`, `bestArbOpportunityPct`, `cheapestExchange`, `mostExpensiveExchange` |
| **Per exchange (USD)** | `binanceUsd`, `okxUsd`, `bybitUsd`, `bitgetUsd`, `kucoinUsd`, `cryptoComUsd`, `gateIoUsd`, `krakenUsd`, `novadaxUsd`, `mercadoBitcoinUsd` |
| **Market** | `priceChange24h`, `high24h`, `low24h`, `ath`, `atl`, `marketCap`, `marketCapRank`, `signal`, `liquidityScore` |

Aggregates (avg/min/max/spread/arbitrage and cheapest/most expensive) are computed across the global exchanges above. A per-exchange field is `null` when that exchange has no quote for the coin in the latest snapshot.

---

### Monitored coins

Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), XRP, Cardano (ADA), Dogecoin (DOGE), Avalanche (AVAX), BNB, Tether (USDT), USD Coin (USDC).

---

### How to use

Leave it empty for all coins, or filter:

```json
{ "coins": ["bitcoin", "ethereum"] }
````

- `coins`: filter by coin id (empty = all monitored coins)

Always returns the **latest snapshot** (no delay). Export the dataset as **JSON / CSV / Excel**, or call the **Standby API** (`POST /prices`).

### FAQ

**How fresh is the data?**
It returns the latest snapshot collected from the exchanges (refreshed every few minutes).

**Which exchanges and currency?**
Binance, OKX, Bybit, Bitget, KuCoin, Crypto.com, Gate.io, Kraken, NovaDAX and Mercado Bitcoin, all priced in **USD**.

**Why is some exchange null?**
Not every exchange lists every coin; when there's no quote in the latest snapshot, that column is `null`.

**Can I call it in real time?**
Yes. The Standby endpoint `POST /prices` responds synchronously.

#### 🔌 API integration

**Batch run:**

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/acme-ai~crypto-price-comparison/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"coins":["bitcoin","ethereum"]}'
```

**Standby (`POST /prices`):**

```bash
curl -X POST "https://acme-ai--crypto-price-comparison.apify.actor/prices" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --compressed \
  -d '{"coins":["bitcoin","ethereum"]}'
```

The token goes in the `Authorization: Bearer` header, never in the URL.
