📈 Crypto Price Tracker — Real-Time Spot, OHLCV & Price Alerts

Live spot-price tracker for 13,000+ crypto tokens across CoinGecko + CoinMarketCap + Binance + Coinbase: live spot price, 1m / 5m / 1h / 1d OHLCV bars, percent-change windows, exchange-by-exchange spread, configurable price alerts (above / below / % move), and webhook delivery. A pay-per-result alternative to CoinMarketCap Pro ($79-1000/mo), Messari, Glassnode, and Kaiko enterprise feeds — designed for crypto traders, market-making desks, on-chain analysts, and automated trading bots that need price snapshots cheaper than enterprise feeds.

Most trading desks pick this actor instead of CoinMarketCap Pro because they need a drop-in alternative to a paid feed for low-frequency strategies — cheaper than Glassnode for non-on-chain workflows, with the same JSON shape as the free CoinGecko API but without the public rate limits.

FAQ

What's the lowest polling interval? The actor itself returns a snapshot per run. For sub-minute monitoring, schedule the actor every minute via Apify Schedules.

Are the alerts state-aware across runs? Yes — the actor stores alert state in the key-value store so you don't get duplicate "above $75,000" fires.

Which exchanges are supported? Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, Bybit, OKX, Bitstamp, Bitfinex, KuCoin, Huobi, Gate.io.

Output formats? JSON, CSV, Excel, and the Apify dataset API.

Is this legal? Yes. All exchange data comes from publicly documented endpoints; CoinGecko / CMC data is published openly.

How NexGenData Pricing Works

Every NexGenData actor uses pay-per-event pricing — you only pay for results that actually land in your dataset. No monthly minimum, no seat fees, no surprise overage bills.

• Actor Start: a single-event charge each time you spin the actor up (scaled to memory size)
• Result / item: charged per item written to the default dataset
• No charge for retries, internal proxy rotation, or failed sub-requests — those are absorbed by the platform
