Bitfinex Crypto Ticker Scraper

Scrape live ticker data for every trading pair on Bitfinex — last price, bid, ask, 24-hour change %, 24-hour volume, daily high and low — in a single run. Powered by the official Bitfinex public REST API, so there is no API key, no login, and no rate-limit headaches.

Perfect for crypto traders, market-monitoring dashboards, trading bots, and portfolio trackers that need clean, structured price data on demand.

What it does

This actor calls Bitfinex's public v2/tickers endpoint and returns one clean record per trading pair. It automatically skips funding-market symbols and normalizes the exchange's compact positional-array format into readable JSON.

• All trading pairs in one run (270+ pairs).
• Optional symbol filter — grab just USD, BTC, ETH pairs, or anything else.
• Clean, typed output — every numeric field parsed to a float, everything nullable.
• Fast & cheap — a single API call, no browser, tiny memory footprint.

Example use cases

• Crypto trading — pull real-time prices and spreads for order routing.
• Market monitoring — feed a dashboard or alert system with 24h change and volume.
• Trading bots — schedule the actor and stream fresh tickers into your strategy engine.
• Portfolio tracking — value holdings using the latest last-price per pair.
