Title: Blockchain API That Supports The Most Coins Post by: Kruddler on February 04, 2018, 04:37:28 AM I'm using dozens of clients for to scan all the different blockchains. The main query I need to do is getting address balances. Do you have a recommendation for a REST or Websocket API that supports a lot of coins?
Bonus points if the API can retrieve balances for multiple addresses at once. Title: Re: API That Supports The Most Coins - Hopefully with Get Multiple Addresses Post by: Nrcewker on February 04, 2018, 05:16:36 AM are you talking about something like cryptonator ?
Title: Re: Blockchain API That Supports The Most Coins Post by: Kruddler on February 04, 2018, 05:32:10 AM Sorry. I've updated my question. This looks like a good price API that I might use, but actually I'm looking for blockchain APIs so I can query address balances etc.

This is programming question. Title: Re: Blockchain API That Supports The Most Coins Post by: herecomesjohnny on February 04, 2018, 10:41:51 AM Sorry. I've updated my question.

The main query I need to do is getting address balances. Do you have a recommendation for a REST or Websocket API that supports a lot of coins? I have one recommendation, have a look at (https://chainz.cryptoid.info/api.dws), it has lot of altcoins. the only problem is that it returns JSON object/data.Bonus points if the API can retrieve balances for multiple addresses at once. What? Why did this end up in Bitcoin Forum > Economy > Marketplace > Service Discussion? It's probably because you're asking of a service/site that provides API to query balance of a address?This is programming question.

That seem more of a benefit than a problem, at least to me. I see no better way that the information could be served from a REST API. I glanced at the documentation for the API you linked to and it seems that it could work for OP. My only concern with it is the rather limiting quota that each API key is assigned (no more than 1 query every 10 seconds). Depending on how many coins OP needs to obtain address information for, this method could potentially be too slow for his purposes since because of the nature of the API, at least one query is required per coin, but it does seem like the most convenient method. The only alternative is to find different APIs for each coin and use those so that the different blockchains don't have to be stored on the machine, but that is all that I can really think of. |
