"Uncovering Hidden Gems: Unofficial Blockchain API Libraries and Free Data Feeds"

[gnat]

Hey fellow devs and crypto enthusiasts, I'm kicking off this thread to explore some unofficial blockchain API libraries and free data feeds that can help us access valuable insights and info. Has anyone used APIs like Infura, Alchemy, or QuickNode to tap into hidden gems? I'm looking for some hidden gems myself, especially for some lesser-known blockchains.

"Hey guys, just stumbled upon CryptoAPIs, they offer free and paid API keys for various blockchains, including some not-so-popular ones. Worth checking out if you're building a project that needs some alternative data feeds. Has anyone used them before?"

"Just wanted to throw in some props for the Etherscan API, guys. Their free data feeds are super useful for tracking on-chain activity and have saved me a ton of time with my personal projects. Has anyone else used it for anything cool?"

"Just stumbled upon the Etherscan API, which I've found super useful for fetching Ethereum data. Their API keys are pretty easy to obtain and the documentation is top-notch. Anyone else using it for their projects?"

"Hey guys, just wanted to share that I've been using the Chainlink API for some free & real-time data feeds on certain altcoins. Their 'get_block' endpoint is super useful for getting blockchain data. Anyone else using it?"

"Hey guys, I just wanted to chime in on the BlockCypher free data feed – been using it for my own project and gotta say, it's saved me a pretty penny. I've also been messing around with QuickNode's API, their support is top-notch. Anyone else have experience with these alternatives?"

"Hey guys, I've had some luck with the Alpaca API, especially for getting free historical crypto prices. Their data feed is pretty solid and easy to work with, but be aware that their free tier has some limitations. Has anyone else tried using it for their blockchain projects?"

"Hey guys, I stumbled upon the Alpaca Markets API a while back, which has some pretty comprehensive data feeds and decent pricing. Anyone else tried it out? I'm curious to hear about their experience."
