Codex vsCoinMarketCap

See how Codex compares to CoinMarketCap API for speed and onchain capabilities

Real-Time WebSockets Subscriptions

Build high-performance apps with unlimited WebSocket connections, included in your plan. CoinMarketCap's WebSocket is beta, starts at their $79/mo tier, and bills per message received.

2B+ Indexed Wallets

Access comprehensive wallet data, including PnL tracking and trading history across 2B+ wallets. CoinMarketCap exposes holder analytics per token, but not wallet-level portfolio state across every token an address holds.

Onchain to API in 1 second

Get enriched blockchain data within 1 second of onchain confirmation, for every token. CoinMarketCap's REST endpoints refresh on roughly a 60-second cycle, and its stream pushes about every 5 seconds for the top 500 assets and 15 seconds for the rest.

DeFi Focused

CMC added onchain DEX endpoints, but the data is still aggregated from market sources. Codex indexes onchain transactions directly, giving you DeFi data, including DEX trades and wallet activity, as they confirm.

TradingView, and their 50 million users, rely on Codex as the sole source of truth for all onchain data. We were using 3 to 4 data providers previously, including The Graph, and have now consolidated everything on Codex.

Codex has always been very supportive and quick with any changes or features requested. But by far the most solid difference for me is the support of the many available launchpads these days and their extensive token filter endpoints.

I can spin up a UI. I cannot spin up Codex. Don't try to price all the assets on every chain ever. Just don't. I'll see you in three years, gray and impoverished.

On the amount of data, nothing is comparable. We had CoinGecko for candles, Birdeye for something else, CoinMarketCap for this and that. With Codex, it's the whole package, and the speed is incredible. That's why we stuck with it.

Working with the Codex team has been a game-changer. Codex seamlessly provides all the data we need, when we need it. If the data we want isn't currently available, the development team makes it available for us. I wish all of our integrations went this smoothly.
