Kraken Exchange API

healthy 3,241 Subscribers

Live market data from the Kraken cryptocurrency exchange, served straight from Kraken's public API — no key, no account, nothing cached. Kraken is one of the oldest and largest crypto exchanges; this reads its order book and trades directly. The ticker endpoint returns the live quote for one or many pairs — the last traded price, the best bid and ask and the spread, the 24-hour volume and VWAP, the 24-hour high, low and open and the change since open, and the 24-hour trade count: XBT/USD trades around its live price with thousands of trades a day. The orderbook endpoint returns the live order book to any depth — the bid and ask price levels with their sizes, the best bid/ask and the spread — the real liquidity behind the price. The ohlc endpoint returns candlestick history at intervals from one minute to two weeks. Pairs can be given the friendly way (BTCUSD, ETHEUR) and it resolves them to Kraken's canonical names. This is the exchange-market-data layer for any trading, charting, arbitrage or bot application. Live from Kraken, nothing stored. Distinct from aggregate-price and other single-exchange APIs — this is Kraken's own ticker, order book and candles. 4 endpoints.

Crypto.com Exchange API

Live spot market data from the Crypto.com Exchange, one of the largest global retail crypto venues and the heart of the CRO ecosystem, served straight from its public API with no key and nothing cached. The ticker endpoint returns a market's last price, best bid and ask, the spread, 24-hour high and low, 24-hour change and base and quote volume. The tickers endpoint returns every spot market for a quote currency ranked by 24-hour quote volume, so one call gives you the most-traded pairs on the venue. The instruments endpoint lists the tradable spot pairs with their price and quantity tick sizes and decimal precision. The book endpoint returns live order-book depth — every bid and ask level with price, amount and order count, plus the best bid/ask and spread. Everything is read live from Crypto.com on each request, nothing stored; perpetual contracts are excluded so you get clean spot data. A distinct global venue, separate from the other exchange feeds on the marketplace. Ideal for trading bots, price tickers, arbitrage scanners, portfolio trackers and market dashboards. Live, no key. 4 spot endpoints. For perpetuals or candles use a derivatives or OHLC API.
