## 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

## Coinlore Crypto Market Scraper

Scrape live cryptocurrency market data from **Coinlore** - no API key, no login, no browser.
Get price, 1h/24h/7d percentage change, market cap, 24-hour volume, rank and supply figures for
**10,000+ coins**, plus a global market summary with BTC and ETH dominance.

Output is clean, flat JSON that exports straight to CSV, Excel, JSON or an API endpoint.

### Input

```json
{
  "mode": "coins",
  "maxItems": 500
}
```

| Input | Type | Default | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `mode` | select (`coins`, `global`) | `coins` | `coins` paginates the ticker list, `global` returns the market summary |
| `maxItems` | integer (1-5000) | 500 | How many coin rows to collect; ignored in `global` mode |

### Example output

```json
{
  "type": "coin",
  "coin_id": "90",
  "symbol": "BTC",
  "name": "Bitcoin",
  "rank": 1,
  "price_usd": 63387.57,
  "price_btc": 1.0,
  "change_1h": -0.2,
  "change_24h": -2.72,
  "change_7d": -2.82,
  "market_cap_usd": 1265903873708.4,
  "volume_24h": 41599543326.45,
  "circulating_supply": 19970852.0,
  "total_supply": 19970852.0,
  "max_supply": 21000000.0,
  "url": "https://www.coinlore.com/coin/bitcoin",
  "source": "coinlore",
  "scraped_at": "2026-07-28T09:00:00+00:00"
}
```

### Use cases

- **Crypto dashboards** - power a live price and market-cap board without paying for a data plan.
- **Portfolio tracking** - refresh holdings valuations on a schedule and store history in a dataset.
- **Market research** - pull the full long tail of 10,000+ coins for sector, supply and momentum analysis.
- **Trading bots** - feed rank, volume and 1h/24h/7d momentum into screeners and signal logic.

### Pricing

Pay-per-result at roughly **$0.5 per 1,000 results**. A default run of 500 coins costs about $0.25;
`global` mode is a single result. The actor runs on 512 MB and finishes a typical run in seconds.

### How it works

The actor calls the public Coinlore REST API (`api.coinlore.net`). The ticker endpoint returns a
maximum of 100 coins per request, so the actor paginates with the `start` offset until `maxItems`
or the end of the catalogue is reached. Requests use `curl_cffi` with a Chrome 124 TLS fingerprint
and fall back to a plain stdlib HTTP client, so runs work on cheap datacenter proxies or no proxy
at all. Every numeric field is coerced from Coinlore's mixed string/number types into a real float,
and empty values become `null` instead of empty strings.

### FAQ

**Do I need a Coinlore API key?** No. The endpoints used are public and unauthenticated.

**Do I need proxies?** No. The actor is datacenter-clean and works without a proxy configuration.

**How fresh is the data?** Coinlore refreshes tickers continuously; every row carries a
`scraped_at` timestamp so you can measure staleness yourself.

**Can I get all 14,000+ coins?** `maxItems` is capped at 5,000 per run. Run the actor multiple
times or use it on a schedule if you need deeper coverage.

**Is this legal?** The actor reads a public API and collects no personal data. You are responsible
for complying with Coinlore's terms when redistributing the data.

# Actor input Schema

## `mode` (type: `string`):

What to scrape. 'coins' returns one row per cryptocurrency (price, market cap, volume, rank, supply) paginated from the Coinlore tickers endpoint. 'global' returns a single aggregated market-summary row (total market cap, total volume, BTC and ETH dominance).

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of coin rows to scrape in 'coins' mode. Coinlore returns 100 coins per request, so the actor paginates until this limit or the end of the catalogue is reached. Ignored in 'global' mode, which always returns one row.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "mode": "coins",
  "maxItems": 500
}

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call ninhothedev/coinlore-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,ninhothedev/coinlore-scraper"
        }
    }
}

```

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).
