## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

### 💰 Pricing (Pay Per Event - PPE)

This Actor uses Apify's transparent **Pay Per Event (PPE)** pricing model. You only pay for the exact cryptocurrency records and data successfully extracted and delivered to your dataset—**never** for compute run time, idle proxies, or retries.

#### Event Pricing Breakdown

| Event Name | Price (USD) | What's Included |
|---|---|---|
| **`listing-coin`** | **$0.001** / coin<br>*($1.00 per 1,000 coins)* | Basic cryptocurrency listing record: Rank, name, symbol, slug, real-time price, 1h/24h/7d/30d price change %, 24h volume, market cap, and circulating/total supply. |
| **`coin-deep-details`** | **$0.005** / coin<br>*($5.00 per 1,000 coins)* | Comprehensive coin profile: Full description, date launched, multi-chain smart contracts with explorer links, official websites, whitepaper, GitHub, socials (Twitter/X, Telegram, Discord), and security audits. |
| **`spotlight-item`** | **$0.002** / token<br>*($2.00 per 1,000 tokens)* | Trending tokens, top 24h gainers, top 24h losers, most visited coins, or newly listed microcap tokens. |
| **`exchange-scraped`** | **$0.003** / exchange<br>*($3.00 per 1,000 exchanges)* | Spot or derivatives exchange profile: Rank, score, traffic score, trading volume, monthly visits, number of markets/pairs, and Proof of Reserves status. |
| **`global-metrics-report`** | **$0.010** / report | Comprehensive global market metrics snapshot: Total market cap, 24h volume, BTC/ETH dominance %, sector volumes (DeFi, Stablecoins), and Fear & Greed index score with 7-day history. |
| **`historical-chart-series`** | **$0.020** / series | Complete chronological price chart dataset (1D, 7D, 1M, 1Y, ALL) containing all historical price, volume, and market cap time series data points. |

> 💡 **Tip**: If you only need top cryptocurrency market rankings (`mode: "top_coins"`, `includeDetails: false`), your total cost is just **$0.001 per coin ($1.00 per 1,000 coins)**!

#### 📊 Cost Estimation Table

| Number of Items | Market Listings (`listing-coin`) | Deep Coin Profiles (`coin-deep-details`) | Trending / Spotlight (`spotlight-item`) | Exchanges (`exchange-scraped`) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| **100 items** | **$0.10** | **$0.50** | **$0.20** | **$0.30** |
| **500 items** | **$0.50** | **$2.50** | **$1.00** | **$1.50** |
| **1,000 items** | **$1.00** | **$5.00** | **$2.00** | **$3.00** |
| **5,000 items** | **$5.00** | **$25.00** | **$10.00** | **$15.00** |
| **10,000 items** | **$10.00** | **$50.00** | **$20.00** | **$30.00** |
| **50,000 items** | **$50.00** | **$250.00** | **$100.00** | **$150.00** |

#### Why Pay Per Event is Better Than Traditional Compute (CU) Billing

- 🎯 **100% Predictable Budget**: You know the exact cost before starting your run.
- 🚫 **No Charge for Failures or Timeouts**: If a request fails or a network issue occurs, you pay $0.
- ⚡ **No Idle Time Fees**: You don't pay for container startup, proxy initialization, or network latency.
- 🎁 **Free Monthly Allowance**: Apify provides all users with **$5 free monthly usage credit**, meaning you can scrape up to **5,000 cryptocurrency listings or 1,000 deep coin profiles completely free** every month!

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {

    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
