If you wanna develop something cool in crypto, the CoinGecko API is a must-try! It's packed with information on almost every coin and token, plus chain data. And it's super easy to integrate.
Utilising the @coingecko API again, I completed an analysis of the yearly low prices for 2023 vs the yearly high prices for 2024 to get an understanding of which tokens had performed best this cycle.
After testing various API's, I've come to a conclusion that:
This @coingecko's API is so underrated.
There's almost no limit to what you can build with it.
