Get list of coins

Get a list of coins. On Coinranking, we use this endpoint on our home page.

Be aware that by default the list includes coins with tier 1, 2 and 3. This results in little-known coins with large market caps ranking on top. If you only want to show 'quality coins', then you should filter on tier 1.

Coins are by default ordered by their rank, which - somewhat simplified - means that they are ordered on market cap. The response not only returns a list of coins, but also statistics regarding the requested list, such as the volume in the last 24 hours. If you need all our coins at once, check out our metadata endpoint.

Query parameters

Parameter Description
referenceCurrencyUuid (optional) String

UUID of reference currency, in which all the prices are calculated. This includes the price, the change and the sparkline. Defaults to US Dollar

Default value: yhjMzLPhuIDl

Example:
...coins?referenceCurrencyUuid=Qwsogvtv82FCd
timePeriod (optional) String

By setting the timePeriod the change percentage and sparkline in the response will be calculated accordingly.

Default value: 24h
Allowed values:
1h 3h 12h 24h 7d 30d 3m 1y 3y 5y

Example:
...coins?timePeriod=7d
symbols (optional) Array

Symbols to filter the list on. Do note that symbols are not unique. Should you need a specific coin, then you should use the uuids filter.

Example:
...coins?symbols[]=BTC&symbols[]=ETH&symbols[]=XRP
contractAddresses (optional) Array

contract Addresses to filter the list on. These are the addresses currencies get on their respective blockchains. Smart Contract Addresses are a common name for addresses on blockchains, but some chains might call them AssetID, Token Address or something else. We use the term Contract Address to cover all these cases. Note that tokens might be issued on several blockchains, so the same token might have several addresses

Example:
...coins?contractAddresses[]=0xdac...&contractAddresses[]=0xa0...
blockchains (optional) Array

Blockchains to filter the list on. With this filter you can for example fetch only coins that are minted on the Ethereum blockchain. You can filter on multiple blockchains at once.

Example:
...coins?blockchains[]=ethereum&blockchain[]=eos
uuids (optional) Array

UUIDs to filter the list on. If you know the UUIDs of the coins you want to fetch, you can use this filter to get the specific coins.

Example:
...coins?uuids[]=razxDUgYGNAdQ&uuids[]=Qwsogvtv82FCd
tiers (optional) Array

We separate coins into three tiers. With this parameter you can filter coins on the tiers you need. Read more about out our tiers in our methodology.

Allowed values:
1 2 3

Example:

tags (optional) Array

Tags to filter the list on.

Allowed values:
defi stablecoin nft dex exchange staking dao meme privacy metaverse gaming wrapped layer-1 layer-2 fan-token football-club web3 social

Default value: marketCap
Allowed values:
price marketCap 24hVolume change listedAt

Example:
...coins?orderBy=price
search (optional) String

Filter the results by searching for coin names or symbols.

Example:
...coins?search=bitcoin
scopeId (optional) String

A scope can be used to make a subset of the coin list. To be used in combination with scopeLimit. The scopeId defines a subset, while the scopeLimit defines the size of the subset. Subsequently, any orderBy and orderDirection you choose is applied on the subset. This can be used if you want to sort a subset of coins, while the set itself is ordered by market cap or volume. We use it to make our 'Best Performers' list on Coinranking, where we show the coins that increased the most out of the top 200 highest ranked coins.

Default value: marketCap
Allowed values:
marketCap 24hVolume

Example:
...coins?scopeId=24hVolume&scopeLimit=100
scopeLimit (optional) Number

The scopeLimit defines the size of a scoped subset of coins. To be used in combination with scopeId. For more explanation, see scopeId.

Default value: 100


Example:
...coins?scopeId=24hVolume&scopeLimit=100
orderDirection (optional) String

Applies direction to the orderBy query, which can be in ascending or descending order.

Default value: 50
Size range: 0-5000

Example:
...coins?limit=10
offset (optional) Number

Offset. Used for pagination.

Default value: 0
