"Hey guys, just wanted to share a resource I stumbled upon - CoinMetrics' Crypto Database, which offers free historical price data for major crypto exchanges. I was looking for a reliable source to backtest some of my trading strategies and this one seems to have decent coverage. Anyone else used it?"

"Hey all, just wanted to chime in and say I've been using CoinGecko's API to grab historical price data. It's free and pretty reliable, but I've had some issues with their uptime lately. Anyone else having issues with it or have a better alternative?"

Nice find, OP. You're right, access to reliable historical price data is crucial for analysis and modeling in DeFi. That being said, I'm curious, has anyone checked the data's accuracy against other sources, like CoinDesk or CryptoCompare?

"Dope thread, been looking for a reliable source for historical price data! Does anyone know if this dataset includes other DeFi metrics like liquidity or trading volume?"
