CMC just dropped new DEX APIs and they look really useful for DeFi devs

Okay so CoinMarketCap released a bunch of new DEX APIs recently and I think it's actually a big deal for anyone building DeFi stuff.
You can get real-time on-chain transaction data, live trade feeds (every swap as it happens), data from all major DEXs, and historical DEX data.
If you're building anything in DeFi, a trading bot, an analytics tool, a portfolio tracker, a sniper, having reliable DEX data is super important and this covers a lot of it.
They have a separate DEX API plan alongside their regular crypto data API. Worth checking out if you're working on anything in this space.

Didn't know CoinMarketCap had a free API until today, this changes everything for me

I've been manually checking prices every morning like a caveman and today I found out CMC has an API that just gives you all that data automatically??

You can get live prices, market caps, volume, historical data, trending coins, literally everything. And there's a free tier so you can just sign up and start using it without paying.

I'm already thinking about building a personal dashboard so I don't have to open 10 different tabs every morning. If you're into crypto and know even a little bit of coding, definitely worth looking into.
