Currencies

Currency Search

Description

Server-side search of coins by name or ticker, ranked by relevance; resolves a query string to an id/slug.

Note: Does not return market data — use /currencies/list or /currencies/:id for that.

Tip: Results are ranked by relevance, so the first hit is usually the right one.

Tip: Resolve ids once, then pass them as currencyIds to /currencies/list to fetch the whole watchlist with market data in one call.
