## Pricing

$2.00 / 1,000 coin market data

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

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

# README

## CoinGecko Crypto Stats

Fetch live cryptocurrency market data for one or many coins from the official
CoinGecko v3 API (`/coins/markets`). Each run returns one row per coin with
current price, market cap, rank, 24h high/low, price change, supply, ATH/ATL
values and timestamps. Useful for trading bots, portfolio trackers, analytics
dashboards, and market research.

### Input

```json
{"coins":["bitcoin","ethereum"],"vsCurrency":"usd","includePriceChange":true}
```

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `coins` | array | — | CoinGecko coin ids, e.g. `bitcoin`, `ethereum`, `cardano` (max 100) |
| `vsCurrency` | string | `usd` | Target currency for prices and market caps |
| `includePriceChange` | boolean | `true` | Include 1h/24h/7d price change percentages |
| `apiKey` | string | — | Optional CoinGecko API key (`x-cg-demo-api-key`) for higher rate limits |

### Output

One row per coin with `coinId`, `symbol`, `name`, `currentPrice`, `marketCap`,
`marketCapRank`, `fullyDilutedValuation`, `totalVolume`, `high24h`, `low24h`,
`priceChange24h`, `priceChangePercentage24h`, `circulatingSupply`,
`totalSupply`, `maxSupply`, `ath`, `atl`, `lastUpdated`, `coinGeckoUrl`, and
optionally `priceChangePercentage1h/24h/7d`. Unknown coin ids produce an error
row. Each result row is a PAY\_PER\_EVENT charge event.

# Actor input Schema

## `coins` (type: `array`):

CoinGecko coin ids (lowercase, hyphenated, e.g. bitcoin, ethereum, cardano). Maximum 100.

## `vsCurrency` (type: `string`):

Target currency for prices and market caps (usd, eur, btc, jpy, etc.)

## `includePriceChange` (type: `boolean`):

Include 1h, 24h and 7d price change percentages in the output

## `apiKey` (type: `string`):

Optional CoinGecko API key (x-cg-demo-api-key) to raise rate limits. The actor works without it.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "coins": [
    "bitcoin",
    "ethereum"
  ],
  "vsCurrency": "usd",
  "includePriceChange": true
}
```

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "coins": [
        "bitcoin",
        "ethereum"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("brunofin/coingecko-crypto-stats").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = { "coins": [
        "bitcoin",
        "ethereum",
    ] }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("brunofin/coingecko-crypto-stats").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "coins": [
    "bitcoin",
    "ethereum"
  ]
}' |
apify call brunofin/coingecko-crypto-stats --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,brunofin/coingecko-crypto-stats"
        }
    }
}

```

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).
