24 alternatives to qoery - every stat queryable

The current pricing for crypto data APIs (CoinGecko/CMC) is based on a legacy requirement: maintaining hundreds of real-time websocket connections to centralized exchanges (Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, etc.). That infrastructure is heavy, expensive, and requires constant maintenance to filter wash-trading and normalize order books. But if you are building for DeFi, that data is technically irrelevant. The "real" executable price is on-chain (Uniswap, Raydium, Curve). I realized that if I just ignored the CEXs entirely and only indexed the blockchain, I could drop the cost basis by an…

    I'm a university student and needed DeFi data for my project. CoinGecko's API pricing was way out of my budget (like, not even close). $35+/month just for high-granularity data – and that's not even minute-by-minute! So I did what any broke student would do – I started querying the blockchain directly instead. Turns out, going straight to the source is not only cheaper, but I could offer the same data for more than 50% less than traditional providers. So I built Qoery, a Python SDK that makes DeFi data actually affordable for students, indie devs, and anyone building side projects. What…

    We built a data feed oracle to write prices on-chain, and it’s live on the Ropsten test network! In Decentralized Finance (Defi), you can build your own financial instruments and you often need an oracle to write off-chain prices onto the blockchain. We built an oracle focused on data feeds because the current options are too expensive and slow for regularly, repeating data. This oracle is designed for price feeds and uses public key encryption to validate the data submitted is accurate. We modeled our oracle off of MakerDao and generalized the design to work with any datafeed. We’re…

    Hi there HN, just wanted to share a little project I've been working on for some time: a coinmarketcap.com Python (API) wrapper. As coinmarketcap does not provide any API endpoints, the code is pretty dirty and should be considered as a scraper more than a real API wrapper. Example usage: >>> import coinmarketcap >>> coinmarketcap.market_cap('bitcoin') $ 7,644,402,276 Everything is well documented in the README but if you have questions, don't ask. Hope you enjoy it, issues and PR on Github are more than welcome. (https://github.com/c0ding/coinmarketcap-api)

    Hi everyone, we recently launched our cryptocurrency pricing site we have been working on for a few months: https://chainsage.com Currently we are aggregating data from 200+ exchanges for 2000+ assets. Being cryptocurrency enthusiasts and investors ourselves, we were frustrated with the lack of filtering/sorting options existing providers of similar data had. For example, here's a live dashboard of assets with at least $100k in trading volume and a 10%+ USD price increase in the last 24 hours:…

    Hey HN, Last month, I wanted to buy some Bitcoin and noticed something strange: the price was different on every exchange. Unlike the stock market, crypto doesn’t have one official price. I tried using CoinMarketCap and other sites to compare prices, but they didn’t really help. So, I built Coinstate a simple, free tool that lets you see and compare live crypto prices from many exchanges in one place. It currently pulls data from Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, OKX, KuCoin, HTX, Bybit, and Gate.io, with Crypto.com and Gemini coming soon. You can filter by trading pair, sort by price, and see near…
