  title: CryptoCompare min-api (Legacy) Social API
  description: The CryptoCompare min-api (now CoinDesk Data Legacy API) provides cryptocurrency market data including current and historical prices, OHLCV candles (minute/hour/day), top lists by volume and market cap, news, social statistics, order book data, blockchain data, and exchange information. The REST API is available at https://min-api.cryptocompare.com/data and supports authenticated access via an API key passed either as the api_key query parameter or in the Authorization header. Free-tier traffic is metered in monthly call credits; paid commercial tiers expand the monthly budget and enable additional endpoints such as news, social, blockchain, top lists, and order book.
