CoinGecko Review for Trackers and Builders | Quasa.io
#Quasa #QUA #coingecko
CoinGecko is the public tape for crypto: 21,000+ coins, 1,400+ exchanges, charts, NFTs, RWAs, portfolios, and “Ask Gecko.” The website is usable for free. Premium is about $10 a month or $99.90 a year (~$8.32) after a 14-day trial: no ads, more wallets, unlimited manual lots, extra Candy. The real bill for builders is the API. Demo is 10,000 calls. Basic is $35 monthly or $29 yearly for 100k credits. Analyst is $129 / $103 for 500k and faster data. Lite, Pro, and Enterprise climb to millions of calls. One successful call equals one credit. It is a data site, not a broker. Listings lag. Thin tokens lie. Use the free tape. Pay Premium only if ads annoy you. Pay the API when an app depends on the feed.
