How to Track New Tokens on Solana, Base, BSC, and 250+ Chains

Cross-chain token detection across Solana, Base, BSC, and 250+ chains relies on ingesting newly created DEX liquidity pool events at deployment time. Instead of managing chain-specific APIs, indexers, or custom RPC infrastructure per network, developers can use an onchain market data provider that aggregates new liquidity pools across multiple chains into a single API. This approach simplifies multi-chain token discovery and enables scaling across popular and new emerging networks through a single integration.

In this guide, you'll build a Python workflow using the CoinGecko API, powered by GeckoTerminal to discover newly launched tokens, retrieve and filter newly created liquidity pools to identify emerging tokens as soon as they become tradable.

How to Fetch New Tokens on Solana, Base, BSC, and 250+ Chains in Python

CoinGecko API provides access to newly created tokens and liquidity pools through two endpoints: /onchain/networks/new_pools returns the latest pools across all 250+ supported networks, while /onchain/networks/{network}/new_pools returns the latest pools for a specific chain. Both return data from the past 48 hours, making them an ideal starting point for tracking new token launches.

Prerequisites & Setup

You'll need a CoinGecko API key. If you don't have one, follow the guide to get a free Demo API key. The Demo plan includes 30 calls per minute, which is more than enough to follow along with this tutorial.

Install the dependencies.

Next, set up a shared HTTP client that handles authentication, configures the base URL, and includes a helper for resolving related data returned by GeckoTerminal.

Fetch new pools across every chain

The core function works across all 250+ supported networks using the same code and response format. Specify a network ID to filter results to a single chain, or leave it blank to fetch newly created pools across all chains.

Running this script produces output like the following:

How to Filter High-Quality New Tokens

The raw new-pools feed is a high-volume, unfiltered stream that may include bots, scams, honeypots, and low-liquidity tokens. The CoinGecko API Pools Megafilter endpoint lets you define quality and safety criteria as query parameters to return only matching newly created pools across all supported chains, with 30+ filtering and sorting options spanning liquidity, activity, distribution, and security metrics.

The example below filters for recently created pools with minimum liquidity and volume thresholds, honeypot exclusion, and a healthy GeckoTerminal GT Score (a 0–100 pool quality score). Results include price, FDV, market cap, 5-minute volume, and 5-minute price change in a single response.

Here is an example of how the output looks like:

How to Get Real-Time New Token Alerts

The CoinGecko API’s New Pools List endpoint returns newly created liquidity pools across all supported networks in a single call. To build an alert pipeline, run the endpoint at regular intervals and track previously seen pools to avoid duplicate alerts. The combination of network and pool address provides a simple deduplication key.

Instead of continuously polling, the new coin listed webhook event (currently under private beta) triggers when a token completes indexing and becomes available across CoinGecko, enabling real-time alerts as soon as new tokens go live. Submit the form for early access.

What Can You Build with Multi-Chain New Token Data?

The following use cases show how teams build alerts, dashboards, automated trading systems, and onchain analytics platforms on top of new token streams.

• Real-time alert channels: Send alerts about new token launches to Telegram, Discord, Slack, email, or internal systems.

• Sniper bots and automated trading: Auto-buy logic catching newly launched tokens before CEX listings move price.

• Token discovery feeds: Surface trending and newly launched tokens across all supported chains via a single API, with GT Score and honeypot-based filtering for safer launches. Token discovery feeds are commonly integrated into wallet experiences like Phantom, Crypto.com, and Magic Eden.

• CEX new-listing monitoring: Identifying cross-chain launches that achieve real liquidity within hours. The multi-chain new-pools feed combined with GT Score helps exchanges detect early market demand and prioritize which new assets to evaluate for listing.

Conclusion

CoinGecko API enables unified multi-chain tracking for new tokens across 250+ blockchain networks with the broadest onchain data coverage, allowing a single integration code to scale across networks without re-architecture. A wallet, screener, or listing-monitoring workflow built for one chain can be easily extended across hundreds of others without maintaining separate integrations for each network.

These token discovery signals can be used to power automated trading strategies. Our guides on building a Solana sniper bot and pump.fun sniper bot show how to turn them into automated execution workflows. For broader onchain coverage, the GeckoTerminal onchain data guide shows how to retrieve pool, token, liquidity, market, and OHLCV data across 250+ networks.
