More ways for AI agents to access crypto data efficiently! 🔥 Our team shipped CoinGecko MCP, x402 API, and now the CoinGecko CLI. AI needs reliable, structured crypto data to do useful things. If you're building AI agents in crypto, @coingecko API should be your data layer.

@zeancharlie @Serhatyay3 @0FJAKE @bankrbot @0xDeployer @GeckoTerminal Thanks for flagging to me. I'll get our team to investigate further

@GeckoTerminal @bobbyong You may have seen this interesting bug already. As V4 hook is preventing some new RH-chain tokens from showing up properly, some imposter coins (non-v4) are hiding their bugs but getting pristine security scores on gecko, but actually drainers in background?

woww i just came up with an absolutely hooded idea would need big help from the @bankrbot team just messaged the goat @0xDeployer will see what he thinks....

Hi memecoin trenchers - I heard Robinhood Chain is where all the action is right now so we at GeckoTerminal are offering free fast pass updates for the next 2 weeks. Submit your memecoin token info and get it reflected fast on GeckoTerminal. We are joining in the fun right too!

Some people have asked me what do I think of this current bear cycle - does it feel worse than previous cycles? Or previous cycles were much worse? Short answer to this question is that - to me, this bear cycle feels pretty much exactly the same as the previous 3 bear cycles that I've gone through. Perhaps I'm also a bit desensitized to price movements by now. Long answer to this question is that how one feels during the bear cycle depends entirely on each individual's circumstances. Are your funds safe, did you get liquidated, did you get hacked, did you manage to sell during the bull cycle, did you lose your job, is your company growing etc. For example, if you had all your crypto stuck in FTX or Terra's ecosystem in the previous bear cycle, that must have felt like hell to you to have all your liquid assets disappear overnight. This cycle, we didn't have any ecosystem going entirely belly up, so this bear may have felt like a breeze instead. For some other folks, this cycle could be terrible cause if you had been trading futures on Binance, you would have been liquidated with the 10/10 incident last year. It was not a spot blowup, but almost everyone trading futures had their account blew up. Or maybe you were using some DeFi protocols and unfortunately got your funds drained from one of the many hacks that took place this year and saw them all disappear. Or maybe you have been trading alts, and alts have been bleeding since Jan 2025. It's been nearly 18 months of down only negative news cycle with no light at the end of the tunnel, and quite frankly this is depressing. This cycle is horrible as the ATH bull that we were promised for all our tokens like ETH, SOL etc all did not appear. Yes, we briefly touched ATH but it wasn't a sustained period of elevated prices way beyond the ATH. Or maybe you lost your job and that's a horrible feeling this cycle. Or maybe you work in a company involved with stablecoins or tokenization and despite the bear market, you are busier than ever and on track for a big bonus cause Wall Street can't get enough of this right now. If you had been prudent and taken profit last year before the 10/10 incident, then this cycle would not be as bad for you. You probably would have learned your lesson by now and probably also wiser to know what to expect this cycle. So yea, that's my long answer on how I answer this question on whether this bear cycle is worse or not. It all depends on your own circumstance. We learn to be a bit stronger each bear cycle. Stay strong this bear cycle. We are hopefully coming towards the end soon.

I'm still trying to figure out if they moved to Robinhood Chain or staying at Solana. I think this is a parody and they are actually staying on Solana. I guess it triggered many folks and got them the attention that they really want, which is all that matters in consumer tech

@elvis_osawe If you have been shorting since the start of the year, you would have had your lambo by now!

@bobbyong If that’s the case it means my dreams of buying lambo this year might have to wait until next year for pre bull or 2028 for first bull 🥹🙆🏿‍♂️

I was chatting with a fellow crypto OG last night. As much as we hate to admit, this bear market feels exactly like a simulation with the 4 year cycle. This is my 4th bear cycle and things are moving exactly according to this script. Next few months will be very challenging before we finally bottom and get to pre-bull stage next year, at which so many of us will be so PTSD with crypto but it's actually the best time to buy and ride the wave for the next 2.5 years

Great to see developers using the CoinGecko API and building cool stuff. Here is Potato building memebubbles.io Share with me other cool projects you are building on top of the CoinGecko API

Our research team's latest report digs into how exchanges have pushed into TradFi over 17 months. Interestingly, SpaceX's pre-IPO perps settled within 5% of its Nasdaq opening price, solidifying crypto's use case for pre-IPOs. Check it out and let me know what you think 👇

The AI trade is so definitely similar to the crypto bubble. Retail holding the IPO bags. Sol, Terra, Luna 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

@alvin_kan @Seol_luna We are closer to the bottom, then up only hopefully

@bobbyong @Seol_luna Funnily after reading this, i feel like i can see the light at the end of the tunnel

Our Research team member @Seol_luna did a study to see how far deep into the bear market we are currently in. Based on past cycles in 2019 and 2023, it seems like we may have another 5 more months and 30% more drawdown to go. Let's have the bear cycle be over fast please 😭 coingecko.com/research/publi…

Holding on to airdrops is for fools. The best time to sell airdrops is within 14 days of receiving it coingecko.com/research/publi…

GeckoTerminal is a way better product. The community is starting to notice this. All the small improvements that we are making each day is starting to show and we are still improving further!

Anything that can be tokenized, will be tokenized. We will have millions of tokens. What they don’t say is the vast majority of tokens will just die a quiet death with zero trading volume and zero interest

CoinGecko 🤝 LI.FI Thank you for the trust in using our API

@elvis_osawe Yes! Finally found some time to start tweeting again

@bobbyong Bobby is back to tweet and I absolutely love it.🥰

I read about the layoffs happening at Ethereum Foundation and the part that surprised me the most is how large EF is. The organization is 270 people large before they laid off 20% of their staff! Why are there so many people at EF and what do they all do there? Managing people is a lot of headache, especially a few hundred people. No wonder things feel so dysfunctional in Ethereum the past few years. This trim is much needed and I would argue that EF needs to trim more to make things more focused and lean. That way EF can stop selling so much ETH and dump on all of us too!

@prozic Try asking the Gecko AI 👀

@bobbyong Can I ask it which is the next cabal coin?

I was wondering what is $M and why did it crash today. Luckily I have Gecko AI to help me with my research

@officialbunnyos We have coin AI insights but only on the Enterprise plan docs.coingecko.com/reference/insi…

@bobbyong hi bobby is there an api for this! would love to pay for it.

@IMenlikovaOG Yea it's a new feature we just launched. Try it out! coingecko.com/chat

@bobbyong I didn’t even know you’d set up an AI chat there
