Crypto market tools and data
Across 8 categories, 128 products for whoever pays in this market: the developer choosing a data API, an exchange SDK or a backtesting library; the researcher buying on-chain analytics; the trader picking a terminal, charting platform or bot. Every entry is held to one checklist, each answer dated: what every tier costs, where free runs out, which exchanges and pairs it reaches, whether quotes are tick-live or minutes old, and whether the terms let you store, chart or resell the data.
Exchanges themselves, wallets, custody, RPC nodes, tax software and signal or copy-trading services are left out on purpose.
There is no bitcoin price
94 of these quote in real time and no two quote quite the same number — which venues count, how they are weighted, which trades are thrown out when one stops responding. Two honest sources can differ and both be right.
57 of them will not quote you a price
At least one tier with no number on it, and the closer a product sits to institutional data the likelier that is. The fee is set from what a buyer is worth, which only works while the price list stays private.
51 ship an MCP server for your agent
Price feeds, wallet labels, exchange connectivity and research a model can query by name instead of parsing a web page. Each page names the licence the output comes under, so you know before wiring it in whether an agent may store it or hand it on.
What replaces Cryptowatch, Nomics or the Coinbase Pro API?
20 pages on crypto products that closed or fenced off their data, 18 of them for good. Each names what here does the same job now, ranked by a rule printed on the page that no sponsor can buy.

Collections
The same cards sliced by one thing they have in common rather than by the job they are hired for — what you can run on your own machine, what is live rather than delayed, what drops into a spreadsheet.

Most people do not arrive at a catalogue to browse. They arrive because a provider shut down, changed its terms, or costs more than the job is worth — one page each, with what here does that job now.

Everything here that speaks MCP
51 of the 128 tools expose an MCP server an LLM can call directly — market data, on-chain analytics, execution, research. Nobody else keeps this list, so we do.
See the listFrequently asked questions
What does "hands-on" mean on a card?
That we obtained a key or an account and used the tool ourselves — pulled the same ticker, hit the free tier until it stopped, followed the documentation to the place where it was wrong. No card carries the badge today: it marks the tools we did run, never the ones we intend to. The other 128 are compiled from the vendor's own documentation, pricing page and terms, and claim to be nothing more.
How often is a card updated?
Per block, not per page. Pricing goes stale in weeks and chain coverage in years, so each block on a card carries its own verification date and the ones that have gone old are flagged on the card itself. There is no site-wide "last reviewed" date, because it would be true of one block and a lie about the rest.
How is a tool filed into a category?
By the job it is bought for, not by its feature list. One product gets one primary category; a screener inside a charting platform is a capability flag, not a second category. The unit is a product, not a company, so one vendor can hold several cards.
What is not in the catalogue?
Exchanges, custodians and token calls — anything that holds your coins or tells you what to buy. What is in is software and data in whatever shape it arrives: hosted APIs, desktop terminals, open-source libraries and bots you install yourself, and the guides explaining how the industry prices all of it.
Does paid placement change what a card says?
No. A sponsorship buys a label and presentation — never sort position, never a rating, never a different set of fields, and free cards are never trimmed. Vendor-supplied copy renders in its own labelled block and is never merged into ours.
Can an AI agent read these pages?
Yes. Every card and listing has a plain-Markdown twin at the same URL with .md on the end — /tools/polygon-io.md, /tools.md — carrying the fields without the page chrome.
