"Great thread, guys! I want to throw out there that I found Alpha Vantage to be a solid free resource for live crypto data. Their API is pretty straightforward and has decent limitations for personal use."
"Whoa, this thread is fire! I've been using CoinGecko's free API for market data, and it's been a lifesaver for my trading scripts. Anyone try CryptoCompare's APIs for alternative data?"
"Dude, I'm all about the free resources, but I've been using CoinGecko's API for my bot, and it's been super reliable. For premium, I've heard great things about Alpha Vantage and CryptoSpectator, but haven't tried them myself yet."
