crypto-market-research

Researches public cryptocurrency markets, coins, exchanges, categories, global metrics, news, NFTs, token unlocks, and treasuries through CoinGecko via the Crawlora API. Use for market snapshots and comparative research, not trading or financial advice.

Pull public CoinGecko market data as normalized JSON for coin discovery, market comparisons, category and chain research, global metrics, news, NFT surfaces, token unlocks, and treasury snapshots.

When to use this skill

• Resolve a coin or token before comparing price, market cap, volume, or supply.
• Screen markets, categories, chains, exchanges, gainers/losers, or trending coins.
• Inspect global crypto metrics, public news, token unlocks, or treasuries.
• Compare an asset's public profile and market data across a defined timestamp.

Research workflow

1. Search with /coingecko/search and use the returned CoinGecko ID. Tickers are ambiguous and must not be used as stable identity keys.
2. Fetch /coingecko/coin/{id} and /coingecko/markets with explicit currency, page, and ordering parameters. Preserve the quote currency and timestamp.
3. Use category, chain, exchange, and global routes for comparable cohorts. Keep spot markets, derivatives, NFTs, and treasury holdings as separate surfaces.
4. Treat gainers/losers, trending, news, and unlocks as time-sensitive signals, not forecasts. Report missing data and stale snapshots explicitly.

Notes and limits

• Public market information only. This skill does not place orders, connect wallets, move funds, or access private exchange accounts.
• Prices, volumes, rankings, and news change quickly; include retrieval time, quote currency, source, and requested filters in reports.
• Market data is not investment advice. Do not convert a snapshot into a price target, guaranteed return, or claim of manipulation without evidence.
• CoinGecko IDs, symbols, chain IDs, and exchange IDs are distinct namespaces.
