API is a set of internal protocols that define the interaction of data and services with internal or external applications.  This API will enable product developers and funds to use aggregated data in crypto prices, market capitalization, conversions and trading pair collected from multiple exchanges.

The platform is also adding derivatives which are tradable financial contracts. Virtual currency-based derivatives came into existence in 2017. Addition of derivatives markets is a great move as cryptocurrency derivatives are now gaining wider popularity.

CMC now supports data listing of futures, options, and OTC exchanges. The users can now view additional information on multiple crypto exchanges at a glance. This includes exchange ranking, market penetration, and trading volumes for different date time interval.

The new product comes with a fee that will be levied as per different tiers. It starts with a monthly fee of $0 for a starter to $699 contract for a ‘professional’ and beyond for enterprises.

Chez stated :

“As part of our mission to continue growing the cryptocurrency sector with our partners, our professional API will ensure that the CoinMarketCap data that users know and trust can be integrated into every application. Our API comes with a best-in-class developer dashboard that will help every developer – from hobbyist to large-scale cryptocurrency product teams – make the most of our data.”
