Access real-time crypto rankings, coin details, market overviews, company directory, search, and news from CryptoSlate via 6 structured API endpoints.
What is the CryptoSlate API?
The CryptoSlate API exposes 6 endpoints covering real-time cryptocurrency rankings, detailed coin metrics, global market statistics, a company directory, site-wide search, and paginated news articles. The get_coin_rankings endpoint returns up to 100 coins by default, each with price, 24-hour and 7-day percent changes, market cap, and volume. The get_coin_detail endpoint adds team members, project descriptions, and external links for individual assets.

Typed, relational, agent-ready
A generated client with real types, enums, and the links between objects — the structure a flat JSON response can't carry. Autocompletes in your editor and reads cleanly to coding agents.

Get real-time cryptocurrency rankings with market data. Returns top 100 coins by default, or filtered by view type (gainers, losers, volume, recent). Each coin includes name, symbol, slug, price, percent changes over multiple timeframes, market cap, and 24-hour volume.

}About the CryptoSlate API
Coin Rankings and Detail
get_coin_rankings returns an array of coin objects sorted by market cap by default. The optional view parameter accepts predefined filters — gainers, losers, volume, and recent — letting you scope the result set without post-processing. Each object includes name, symbol, slug, price, change_24h, change_7d, change_30d, market_cap, and volume_24h. get_coin_detail accepts a slug (e.g. bitcoin, solana) and returns richer data: a team array with names and roles, an about description string, a links object mapping label to URL, and a metrics block with fields like coin_rank, coin_price_usd, coin_market_cap_usd, coin_24h_volume_usd, and percentage changes.
Market Overview and Company Directory
get_market_overview takes no inputs and returns global figures: cryptos (count of tracked assets), market_cap, volume_24h, btc_dominance, and a top_coins array with per-coin price and change. list_companies pulls from the CryptoSlate Directory. The category parameter accepts vertical slugs such as crypto-exchanges, mining, or wallets, and defaults to crypto exchanges when omitted. Results are paginated via the page parameter and return company name and slug pairs.
Search and News
search accepts a free-text query and returns categorized matches across coins, companies, people, and news. Each result includes title, url, type, badge, meta, and group fields, with a total count at the top level. get_news_articles returns paginated article listings — title, slug, and url per item — and accepts an optional category slug (e.g. bitcoin, regulation) to filter coverage.
The CryptoSlate API is a managed, monitored endpoint for cryptoslate.com — not a raw scraper you maintain. Every endpoint is automatically health-checked on a schedule, and when cryptoslate.com changes and a check fails, the API is automatically queued for repair and re-verified. It is built to keep working as the site underneath it changes.
This isn't an official cryptoslate.com API — it's an independent, maintained REST wrapper over public data. Where the source has no official API (or only a limited one), Parse gives you a stable contract over a source that never promised one, and keeps it current. Need a new endpoint or field? You can revise it yourself in plain English and the agent rebuilds it against the live site in minutes — contributing the change back to the shared API is free.
Will this API break when the source site changes?+
Is this an official API from the source site?+
Can I fix or extend this API myself if I need a new endpoint or field?+
What happens if I call an endpoint that has an issue?+
- Track real-time price movements and percent changes across the top 100 cryptocurrencies using
get_coin_rankings. - Build a coin profile page pulling team members, project descriptions, and official links via
get_coin_detail. - Display a live market dashboard with BTC dominance, total market cap, and 24h volume from
get_market_overview. - Populate a crypto company directory filtered by vertical (exchanges, mining, wallets) using
list_companies. - Implement site-wide keyword search across coins, companies, and news articles via the
searchendpoint. - Aggregate the latest crypto news by category (e.g. Ethereum regulation) using
get_news_articleswith thecategoryparam. - Monitor top gainers and losers on a given day by passing the
viewparameter toget_coin_rankings.
| Tier | Price | Credits/month | Rate limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0/mo | 100 | 5 req/min |
| Hobby | $30/mo | 1,000 | 20 req/min |
| Developer | $100/mo | 5,000 | 100 req/min |
One credit = one API call regardless of which marketplace API you call. Exceeding the rate limit returns a 429 response. Authenticate with the X-API-Key header.
Does CryptoSlate offer an official developer API?+
What does `get_coin_rankings` return and how can I filter it?+
name, symbol, slug, price, change_24h, change_7d, change_30d, market_cap, and volume_24h. Pass the optional view parameter with values like gainers, losers, volume, or recent to switch the sort context.Does the API return historical price data or OHLCV candlesticks?+
How does pagination work in `list_companies` and `get_news_articles`?+
list_companies and get_news_articles both accept an integer page parameter. Each response includes the current page value alongside the results array. Omitting page defaults to page 1. There is no total_pages field in the response, so you increment until the results array is empty or shorter than a full page.
