Coinbin.org: A Human–Friendly API Service for Crypto Currency Information (coinbin.org)
18 points by kenneth_reitz on Aug 24, 2017 | hide | past | favorite | 8 comments



How about a https://coinbin.org/lbc,btc,eth -type query? (similar to a few stock market apis I've used)


Know of any crypto APIs with this feature?


I like this idea! Want to add a PR?


Is the data from coinmarketcap.com?


Just compared a few coins from coinbin to http://coincap.io/front/ and the prices seem to differ, so my initial instinct is to say no, but dev feedback would be great :)

EDIT: Just looked through the source of the project, and they source their info from https://coinmarketcap-nexuist.rhcloud.com/api/all, which is indeed built on top of the coinmarketcap API.


The data was stale, it turns out, for some coins — issue fixed now.


Yes.
