# Current price and 24h market figures of one token, by ticker symbol or by contract address.

`POST /v2/ops/crypto.token.price`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.agentkey.app`
- URL: `https://api.agentkey.app/v2/ops/crypto.token.price`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Looks up one token's latest USD quote. Pass symbol (BTC, ETH, SOL) for coins and listed tokens, or address + chain for any on-chain token contract. Exactly one of symbol / address is accepted per call.

Fixed price: 0.6 credits per successful call, whichever provider serves it.

## Request body

- object
  - `address` string: Token contract address (0x… on EVM chains). Routes to on-chain providers; pair it with chain.
  - `chain` 'ethereum' | 'polygon' | 'bsc' | 'arbitrum' | 'optimism' | 'base' | 'avalanche': Chain the contract lives on. Only used with address.
  - `fields` string[]: Projection: keep only these dotted paths of data, e.g. ["items.id", "items.text"].
  - `include_raw` boolean: Attach the raw upstream payload as `raw` (not a stable contract; truncated above 256 KB).
  - `provider` string: Shorthand for routing.only = [provider].
  - `routing` Routing: Provider routing override. order: try these providers first; only: restrict to these (equivalent to pinning); allow_fallbacks: false tries only the first eligible provider.
    - `allow_fallbacks` boolean: false = try only the first eligible provider.
    - `only` string[]: Restrict to these providers.
    - `order` string[]: Providers to try first, in order.
    - `strategy` 'auto': How eligible providers are ordered. auto = the method's curated order. fastest / stable / popular are specified but not implemented yet (400 until then). The price is fixed whatever the strategy; mutually exclusive with order.
  - `symbol` string: Ticker symbol (BTC, ETH, USDC). Routes to market-data providers. Case-insensitive.
