CoinGecko
CoinGecko tools answer questions about crypto prices and the overall market. You can ask with a coin name, a ticker, or a contract address. Your assistant turns that into the id CoinGecko uses, such as bitcoin or ethereum.
Save a CoinGecko credential on the tenant’s Credentials tab. Both key fields can be left blank. You do not paste a key into chat.
The prices and market figures are the same in every mode below. What changes is the rate limit, and how far back history can go.
| Saved keys | Where requests go | What you gain |
|---|---|---|
| Neither key | Public CoinGecko, https://api.coingecko.com |
The public rate limit. History stops at 365 days. |
| Demo API key | The same public address. Each request sends that key as x-cg-demo-api-key. |
A higher rate limit. History still stops at 365 days. |
| Pro API key | CoinGecko Pro, https://pro-api.coingecko.com. A Pro key is used even when a demo key is also saved. |
The Pro rate limit, and the full history (max) on History. |
The tools
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Search | Turn a name or ticker into a coin id |
| Prices | Current price for one or more coin ids |
| Markets | Price, market cap, volume, and recent change |
| Token by address | Identify a token from its contract or mint address |
| History | Price, cap, and volume over a span of days |
| Global market | Total market size and Bitcoin and Ethereum share |
How they work together
Search → name or ticker becomes an id
Prices → the latest price for ids you already know
Markets → a snapshot, including by ticker
Token by address → a contract becomes an id
History → the path of one id over time
Global market → the whole market, no coin required
