Discuss Coingecko API limits #65

Closed nop33 closed 2 years ago

nop33 commented 2 years ago

The coingecko free API was facing some 504 errors today, so I am taking the opportunity to discuss its usage in our app.

The free API has a rate limit of 50 calls/minute: https://www.coingecko.com/en/api/documentation

We might wanna consider using a better API than the free coingecko one.

Now that I think about it... This 50 calls per minute (or 1 call per second for simplicity) is an IP limit, right, and not "per app" limit? So, I guess it's fine?
