🪙 CoinMarketCap Crypto Prices & Market Data Scraper

🚀 Pull live prices, market caps, volumes, supply, and 24h/7d/30d changes for 10,000+ cryptocurrencies in seconds. Sort and paginate the full CoinMarketCap ranking, or fetch the full profile (description, links, all-time-high stats, tag taxonomy) for any coin by slug. No API key, no registration, no manual CSV wrangling.

🕒 Last updated: 2026-05-16 · 📊 40+ fields per record · 10,000+ coins covered · 25 quote currencies · Listings + full profiles in one Actor

CoinMarketCap is the industry-standard market data hub for cryptocurrencies. This Actor wraps CoinMarketCap's public market-data surface behind a single Apify input and returns each cryptocurrency as a clean, flat row in your dataset. Pick a mode (listings for the paginated rank table, or details for explicit coin profiles), choose a quote currency, optionally enrich with full profiles, and the Actor handles pagination, retries, residential-proxy routing, and field flattening. Every coin row arrives with stable, well-typed keys: prices, supply numbers, percent changes across nine windows, 24h highs and lows, and the URL back to the coin's CoinMarketCap page.

The output schema is unified across modes. Listings rows carry the full market snapshot (rank, price, market cap, circulating supply, percent changes, dominance, market-pair count, tags). Details rows add description, website, social links, source-code and explorer URLs, all-time-high and all-time-low values with timestamps, and the category taxonomy CoinMarketCap maintains. Enable includeFullDetails on listings mode to merge both into one row per coin. Failed records carry an error field so a single broken slug never derails a 10,000-coin pull.

📋 What the CoinMarketCap Scraper does

• 📊 Full market snapshot. Pulls the live CoinMarketCap ranking with price, market cap, fully-diluted valuation, 24h volume, circulating supply, total supply, max supply, market-pair count, and dominance, all in one call.
• 🔁 Nine percent-change windows. Every coin row includes 1h, 24h, 7d, 30d, 60d, 90d, and 1y price-change percentages plus YTD movement, ready for screening and sorting.
• 🪪 Full coin profiles. Switch to details mode (or flip includeFullDetails) to pull description, official website, social links, source code, explorer URLs, whitepaper, all-time-high and all-time-low with dates, and the full tag and category taxonomy.
• 💱 25 quote currencies. USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CNY, INR, KRW, RUB, BRL, BTC, ETH, and 15 more. One toggle and every price-side number rebases for you.
• 🎚️ Sort and filter. Rank by market cap, 24h volume, price, percent change, name, symbol, supply, or date added. Restrict to native coins, tokens only, or both. Skip the first N coins with startRank for paginated jobs.
• 🛰️ Pagination handled for you. The Actor walks the listing in 200-coin pages until your maxItems is hit. Free runs cap at 10; paid runs can pull up to 1,000,000.

Each record carries a stable shape: identifiers (name, symbol, slug, rank, logoUrl, url), market data (price, marketCap, fullyDilutedMarketCap, volume24h, circulatingSupply, totalSupply, maxSupply, marketCapDominance), price action (percentChange1h through percentChange1y, high24h, low24h, allTimeHigh, allTimeHighDate), taxonomy (tags, category), and profile fields (description, website, twitter, reddit, sourceCode, explorer, whitepaper). Every record also carries lastUpdated from CoinMarketCap plus a scrapedAt timestamp from your run.

💡 Why it matters: Many price feeds publish from a single exchange or rely on TradingView passthroughs. CoinMarketCap aggregates across 12,000+ market pairs per major coin, giving a wider, more decentralised view than any single venue. Pulling CMC data alongside CoinGecko is the standard cross-validation step for funds and product teams that need to spot stale or single-source prices.

⚙️ Input

Field	Type	Required	Description
mode	enum	No	listings for the paginated rank table (default), details for explicit coin profiles by slug.
maxItems	integer	No	Cap on records pushed. Free plans cap at 10. Paid plans up to 1,000,000.
convert	enum	No	Quote currency. USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CNY, KRW, INR, RUB, BRL, CAD, AUD, CHF, HKD, SGD, MXN, TRY, ZAR, AED, PLN, SEK, NOK, DKK, ARS, NGN, BTC, ETH. Default USD.
sortBy	enum	No	Listings sort field. market_cap, name, symbol, date_added, price, circulating_supply, total_supply, max_supply, volume_24h, percent_change_1h, percent_change_24h, percent_change_7d.
sortType	enum	No	desc (default) or asc.
cryptoType	enum	No	all (default), coins (native, own-chain assets), or tokens (issued on another chain).
startRank	integer	No	1-based starting rank for listings. Use to skip the top N and paginate deep.
includeFullDetails	boolean	No	Listings mode only. When true, every listed coin is followed up with a detail call. Slower but adds description, links, ATH stats, and category taxonomy.
slugs	array of strings	For details mode	CoinMarketCap slugs like bitcoin, ethereum, solana. The slug is the lowercase segment in coinmarketcap.com/currencies/{slug}/.

Example: top 50 coins by market cap, USD-quoted.

{
  "mode": "listings",
  "maxItems": 50,
  "convert": "USD",
  "sortBy": "market_cap",
  "sortType": "desc"
}

Example: full profiles for three named coins, EUR-quoted.

{
  "mode": "details",
  "slugs": ["bitcoin", "ethereum", "solana"],
  "convert": "EUR",
  "maxItems": 3
}

⚠️ Good to Know: Listings mode is the fast path and returns the most fields per request. Use includeFullDetails: true if you want description and link fields on every coin, but be aware it triggers one extra HTTP call per coin and slows large runs. For just a handful of named coins, details mode is the cleanest fit.

---

📊 Output

Every record is one row in your dataset. Listings rows hold the ranked market snapshot. Details rows (or listings rows with includeFullDetails: true) add the full profile.
