Does anyone recommend a good token price API?
I don't need historical data, I don't care if it's not extremely to-the-second updated. As long as it's reliable and not too expensive (good free tier).
Tokens and projects launching every second. I think a curation service is really required.
A platform that verifies (for potential scams), lore, categorize, document founders stories, tracks github stats + rates different aspects like Memetics, Tokenomics, Design, etc.
I see crypto podcasts (like Laura Shin's Unchained), talking about how this crypto cycle feels different and that there's no new tech-innovation (like DeFi, NFT) driving this cycle.
I tend to disagree. We're at the early stages of a massive AI-Agent Crypto bot era - this IS the new tech pushing boundaries.
I'm thankful to HackerNews to help me discover Bitcoin in 2012.
But their hostility towards crypto needs to be studied.
Went there to check the discussion on the $100k news today. Nothing on the front-page, cuz the news was flagged.
Bitcoin at $100k.
Waiting to post this for a long time. A feat, that felt so far away and yet so obvious, when I joined this space 8-years ago.
BTC at $1 Million, in some ways feels closer now. Just a matter of time.
Just bought and used a mechanical keyboard for the first time in my life and I can't believe I waited this long to try it. Won't be able to go back to the shitty laptop keyboards again.
I don't know what to type but I feel like I want to keep typing!
Lofree Flow - low profile keyboard. Highly recommended!
Got on a conference call with some non-technical friends who were curious about AI and crypto and wanted to learn.
Very quickly, I realized I used some heavy terms we take for granted and had to backup and explain some of the basics: What is an API, LLM, Context, Claude vs ChatGPT vs LLama, Local vs cloud, 3B vs 70B, RAM, CPU/GPU.
Just scratched the surface but there's a so much show and tell! Will try to make this into a series.
Does anyone know of an API that takes a wallet / contract address and gives you the name of the known service?
For example, I give the address and the API says "Uniswap V2 Router".
Basically what Etherscan does with their address-tagging feature but through an API?
