CoinLore API
Zero-auth crypto ticker API; one curl, no key, no signup, no docs friction
CoinLore exposes cryptocurrency tickers, global market data, exchange listings, and coin markets with no authentication whatsoever. It is intentionally minimal and ideal for quick price lookups and prototypes. Coins are addressed by a numeric id.
