CoinGecko Scraper — Crypto Prices, Markets, NFTs & Exchanges

Extract complete crypto market data from CoinGecko — live coin prices & markets (market cap, volume, 1h/24h/7d/30d change, ATH/ATL, supply, sparkline), full coin profiles (description, contract addresses, project links & socials, developer + community stats), historical OHLC & charts, exchanges and derivatives venues, NFT collections (floor price, volume, holders), categories/sectors, trending coins, global market data, and public-company BTC/ETH treasuries.

No browser, no login — fast, direct-to-API extraction, keyless out of the box (add a free CoinGecko Demo key for higher limits). Built for price feeds, dashboards, alerts, research and trading bots you can run on a schedule.

Why this CoinGecko scraper?

Most crypto scrapers grab a single thin list of prices and stop there. This actor reads CoinGecko's full public API and ships the richest dataset in the category — markets, deep coin profiles, history, exchanges, NFTs, sectors and macro data — all from one actor, with a monitoring mode that returns only what's new.

Use cases

• Trading & alert bots — pull historical OHLC for backtesting, or run monitoring mode for new-listing and trending alerts.
• Token & project research — full coin profiles with description, contract addresses across chains, links/socials and developer + community activity.
• Market & sector analysis — categories/sectors with market cap and 24h change, plus global market cap, BTC dominance and DeFi share.
• Exchange & derivatives intelligence — rank venues by trust score, 24h volume and open interest; capture their socials and websites.
• NFT analytics — floor prices, volumes, holders and supply across the top collections.
• Corporate-treasury & macro research — which public companies hold Bitcoin/Ethereum, how much, and at what entry value.

How to use

1. Sign up for Apify — the free plan is enough to try this actor.
2. Open the CoinGecko Scraper, pick a mode (Coins & prices by default), and either leave it on the top coins by market cap or list the coins you want in searchQueries / coinIds.
3. Click Start and watch results stream into the dataset table.
4. Export as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or RSS — or pull results programmatically via the Apify API.

Input

{
    "mode": "coins",
    "searchQueries": ["bitcoin", "ethereum", "solana"],
    "vsCurrency": "usd",
    "enrichCoinDetails": true,
    "includeSparkline": true,
    "maxResults": 100
}

• mode (default coins) — coins, coinHistory, exchanges, derivatives, categories, nfts, trending, global, or companyTreasuries.
• searchQueries — coin names/symbols to resolve to CoinGecko ids (Coins & Historical modes). Leave empty in Coins mode for the top coins by market cap.
• coinIds — exact CoinGecko ids (e.g. bitcoin, matic-network) — faster and more precise than search.
• startUrls — paste CoinGecko URLs for coins, exchanges, NFTs or categories; they're routed automatically.
• category — limit Coins mode to one sector id (e.g. layer-1, meme-token, artificial-intelligence). Run Categories mode to discover ids.
• vsCurrency (default usd) — quote currency (usd, eur, gbp, btc, eth…).
• order (default market_cap_desc) — ordering for the top-coins list.
• historyDays (default 30) — window for Historical mode (1…365 or max).
• treasuryCoins (default ["bitcoin","ethereum"]) — coins to fetch public-company holdings for.
• enrichCoinDetails / enrichExchangeDetails (default false) — fetch full profiles (descriptions, links/socials, dev & community stats). One extra API call per item.
• includeSparkline (default false) — attach the 7-day price sparkline to each coin.
• maxResults (default 100) — cap per run.
• monitorMode / monitorKey — return only records not seen in previous runs (new coins, listings, treasuries). Works with Schedules.
• demoApiKey (optional) — a free CoinGecko Demo key for higher rate limits.
• maxConcurrency (default 3) — keep low on the keyless free tier.
• proxyConfiguration — proxy settings (Apify Proxy by default; IP rotation spreads the free rate limit).

Other record types: coinHistory (ohlc candles + prices/marketCaps/totalVolumes series + summary), exchange / derivativesExchange (trust score, 24h BTC volume, open interest, socials), nft (floor price, volume, holders, supply, links), category (market cap, 24h change, top coins), global / globalDefi (total market cap, BTC dominance, DeFi share) and companyTreasury / companyHolding (public-company BTC/ETH holdings).

What to expect (field coverage)

Entity	Always present	Usually present	Present when published
Coin	id, symbol, name, price, market cap, volume, url	rank, 24h/7d change, ATH/ATL, supply	full profile, links/socials, dev & community stats (with enrichCoinDetails)
Coin history	id, currency, window, candles, summary	OHLC, price/market-cap/volume series	—
Exchange	id, name, trust score, 24h BTC volume	country, year, rank	socials & website (with enrichExchangeDetails)
NFT	id, name, floor price, market cap, volume	holders, supply, sales	links (homepage/X/Discord)
Category / Global / Treasury	core metrics	top coins, dominance, holdings	—

A blank field means CoinGecko doesn't publish it for that record — nothing is dropped, so you always get the richest dataset available.

Automate & schedule

Run this actor on autopilot and pull results into your own stack:

• Apify API — start runs, fetch datasets, and manage schedules over REST.
• apify-client for JavaScript and apify-client for Python — official SDKs.
• Schedules — run it every hour/day to keep prices fresh or to catch new listings and trending coins.
• Webhooks — trigger downstream actions (alert, trade, sheet update) the moment a run finishes.

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'MY_APIFY_TOKEN' });

const run = await client.actor('scrapesage/coingecko-crypto-scraper').call({
    mode: 'coins',
    searchQueries: ['bitcoin', 'ethereum', 'solana'],
    vsCurrency: 'usd',
    enrichCoinDetails: true,
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(`Got ${items.length} coins`);

Integrate with any app

Connect the dataset to 5,000+ apps — no code required:

• Make — multi-step automation scenarios.
• Zapier — push new prices or listings into Sheets, Slack or a database.
• Slack — get alerted when a coin enters the top list or a collection's floor moves.
• Google Drive / Sheets — auto-export every run to a spreadsheet.
• Airbyte — pipe results into your data warehouse.
• GitHub — trigger runs from commits or releases.

Use with AI assistants (MCP)

The output is clean, LLM-ready JSON. Call this actor from Claude, ChatGPT, or any agent framework through the Apify MCP server — ask your assistant to "get the price, 7-day change and project links for the top 50 coins" and let it run the scraper for you.

Agent-ready: autonomous payments (x402 & Skyfire)

This actor is agent-ready — AI agents can discover it, run it, and pay for it autonomously, with no Apify account and no human in the loop. It uses pay-per-event pricing and limited permissions, so it qualifies for Apify's agentic-payment standards:

• x402 — an open, HTTP-native payment protocol. Agents pay per run in USDC on the Base network directly through the Apify MCP server — no account, no API key.
• Skyfire — agent-to-service payments for fully autonomous AI-agent workflows.

Tips

• Pick one mode per run for a clean, fully-populated table. Use the dataset views (Coins / Exchanges / NFTs / Categories / History) to switch perspective.
• Top-N price feed: leave searchQueries empty in Coins mode and set maxResults to 100/250 — you get the top coins by market cap in one run. Schedule it hourly.
• Deep profiles: turn on enrichCoinDetails for descriptions, contract addresses, project links/socials and developer & community stats. It adds one request per coin.
• Rate limits: CoinGecko's free tier is limited per IP. Keep maxConcurrency low (2–4); the actor rotates proxy IPs and retries on 429. For big runs, add a free CoinGecko Demo API key.
• Monitoring: combine monitorMode with Schedules to capture only new coins, listings or treasury changes since the last run.

FAQ

Does it need an API key? No. It runs keyless on CoinGecko's free public API and rotates proxy IPs to spread the per-IP rate limit. For large or frequent runs, add a free CoinGecko Demo key in demoApiKey for higher limits.

Which coins/exchanges/NFTs can I get? Anything on CoinGecko — 17,000+ coins, 1,000+ exchanges and the top NFT collections. Use searchQueries/coinIds, a category filter, startUrls, or just take the top list.

What currency are prices in? Whatever you set in vsCurrency (USD by default) — including fiat, BTC and ETH denominations.

Can I get historical prices? Yes — set mode to coinHistory and choose a historyDays window for OHLC candles plus price, market-cap and volume time series.

Can I export to Google Sheets, CSV, or Excel? Yes — one click in the dataset view, or automatically on every run via the Google Drive integration.

How do I watch for new listings or trending coins? Turn on monitorMode and create a Schedule; each run returns only records not seen before. Add a webhook to push them anywhere.

Is scraping CoinGecko legal? This actor collects publicly available data from CoinGecko's public API. You're responsible for complying with applicable laws and CoinGecko's terms, and for any trading decisions made with the data. This is not financial advice.
