Prices API FAQ
Commonly asked questions when using Alchemy’s Prices API for fungible token prices.
How are prices calculated?
Each endpoint has slight different price sources: By Symbol combines CEX and DEX data, whereas By Address only relies on DEX data.
For each token, the price is aggregated by averaging exchange prices (weighted by total volume).
What tokens do you support?
By Symbol: We support the top 1000+ token symbols by market cap.
By Address: 10K+ tokens from all the leading DEXes.
