Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## CoinGecko Crypto Market Data 🪙📈 **Live coin prices and market data from CoinGecko — price, market cap, volume, 24h / 7d / 30d changes, supply, ATH / ATL, trending coins and global market stats. No API key required.** This Actor pulls clean, structured crypto market data for specific coins, the top coins by market cap, or a whole category — plus optional trending coins and a global market summary. Perfect for dashboards, price alerts, portfolio tools, research and no-code data pipelines. > Uses CoinGecko's public API — no key needed. Add a free Demo key to raise rate limits. --- ### What you can do with it - 💹 **Track prices** — live price, market cap and volume for any coins. - 📈 **Monitor movers** — 1h / 24h / 7d / 30d percentage changes. - 🔥 **Trending coins** — what's hot on CoinGecko right now. - 🌍 **Global market stats** — total market cap, volume, BTC/ETH dominance. - 📊 **Feed dashboards & sheets** — schedule it and pipe to Google Sheets / Slack / webhooks. ### Features - ✅ **No API key** — works out of the box (optional free Demo key raises limits). - ✅ **By coin, top N, or category** — flexible selection. - ✅ **Rich records** — price, market cap, rank, volume, changes, supply, ATH/ATL. - ✅ **Any quote currency** — usd, eur, gbp, btc and more. - ✅ **Trending + global** — optional extra insights. --- ### Input | Field | Description | |---|---| | **Coin IDs** | CoinGecko IDs, e.g. `bitcoin`, `ethereum`. Empty = top coins. | | **Quote currency** | `usd`, `eur`, `gbp`, `btc`, … | | **Top N** | How many top coins if no IDs given. | | **Category** | e.g. `layer-1`, `meme-token` (overrides Top N). | | **Order** | Market cap / volume / ID. | | **Include trending** | Add currently trending coins. | | **Include global** | Add a global market summary row. | | **Demo API key** | Optional free key to raise rate limits. | #### Example — track specific coins with global stats ```json { "coinIds": ["bitcoin", "ethereum", "solana"], "vsCurrency": "usd", "includeGlobal": true } ```` ### Output Each coin row: ```json { "type": "coin", "id": "bitcoin", "symbol": "BTC", "name": "Bitcoin", "vs_currency": "usd", "current_price": 63125.0, "market_cap": 1265972154299.0, "market_cap_rank": 1, "total_volume": 24893680391.0, "price_change_percentage_1h": -0.12, "price_change_percentage_24h": -1.56, "price_change_percentage_7d": -1.69, "price_change_percentage_30d": 4.21, "circulating_supply": 20057431.0, "max_supply": 21000000.0, "ath": 126080.0, "ath_change_percentage": -49.9, "last_updated": "2026-07-17T10:49:01.643Z" } ``` A **global** row (when enabled) has `type: "global"` with total market cap, volume and BTC/ETH dominance. ### Run it on a schedule Schedule the Actor every few minutes and connect a **Google Sheets / Slack / webhook** integration to build live price dashboards and alerts. ### Notes & limitations - Uses CoinGecko's public API — no key needed; the free public tier is rate-limited, so add a free **Demo API key** for heavier use. - Prices are point-in-time snapshots at run time. - Data attribution: powered by CoinGecko. - This is public market data (non-personal). *** #### Keywords CoinGecko, crypto prices, cryptocurrency data, coin prices, crypto market data, bitcoin price, ethereum price, crypto API, live crypto prices, market cap, trading volume, price change, crypto scraper, altcoin data, DeFi data, crypto dashboard, price tracker, crypto market cap, trending coins, Web3 data. # Actor input Schema ## `coinIds` (type: `array`): CoinGecko coin IDs, e.g. bitcoin, ethereum, solana.
