A Note From Our Sponsor:

Do you Need An Enterprise-Grade Crypto Market Data API For Your Fund, Smart Contract, or App?

Nomics is an API-first cryptoasset market data company. Our product is a developer tool for funds, family offices, enterprises, and fintech developers. Our API enables programmatic access to clean, normalized, and gapless primary source trade data across a number of cryptocurrency exchanges. Instead of having to integrate with multiple exchange APIs of varying quality, you can get everything through one screaming fast fire hose. If you found that you or your developer have to spend too much time cleaning up and maintaining datasets, instead of identifying opportunities, or if you’re tired of interpolated data and want raw primary source trades delivered simply and consistently with top-notch support and SLAs, then check us out here. One notable difference between Nomics’ API and competition is that the Nomics product has no rate limits.

If you’re an enterprise or fund that requires error rate, update, and accuracy guarantees along with email and phone support, then consider using the Nomics Cryptocurrency API.
