It doesn't seem remarkable in any way? I think I'd prefer to run my own wrapper than use this (due to lack of proper url building, lack of proper errors, not possible to use async without changing the codebase, etc)

Crypto compare api cannot be used for commercial use. Are there any similar apis out there that are free and available for commercial use?

I made this this week: https://coinbin.org/

In a similar vein.

Saw that, but you posted it the day I started using cryptowat.ch's API[1]: https://tahabsim.org/ltc-price/

Looks useful. Did you make the API documentation on your own? I used github.com/lord/slate to make a documentation page out of a swagger.yaml file for http://www.coinbots.io.

I'm curious how many other coin-related APIs are out there.

I wrote it by hand with tufte-css :)

I love Swagger.yaml, and considered it for this project, but it's small enough to do by hand...

For example, all the queries on the homepage are live results :)

tufte CSS! I knew it looked familiar :D

A way to fetch historical data but limit it to the last N days would be a useful addition.
