# Coin Category Groups

`GET /api/v1/coins/category-groups`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://cryptodataapi.com`
- URL: `https://cryptodataapi.com/api/v1/coins/category-groups`
- Auth: API key in header `X-API-Key`

Curated coin-category themes (20+ major categories).

Covers AI, Layer-1 / platform, Layer-2 & scaling, DeFi, DEX, lending, liquid
staking, stablecoins, exchange tokens, meme, privacy, RWA, NFT, gaming,
metaverse, DePIN, oracles, interoperability, storage, Bitcoin / Solana /
Cosmos ecosystems, PoW and derivatives. Each group carries a plain-English
description and a resolved list of the tracked coins that belong to it (live
price, market cap, rank, 24h/7d change), sorted by market-cap rank. Unlike
`/coins/categories` (raw CoinGecko tag names), this is an editorial set built
for the Coin Categories page.
