CoinGecko cuts x402 crypto data costs by 50% to $0.005 per call

The data aggregator halved the price of its pay-per-request API endpoints and added USDC payments on Polygon alongside Base and Solana CoinGecko just made its pay-as-you-go crypto data a lot cheaper. The company has cut the price of its experimental x402 API endpoints from $0.01 USDC to $0.005 USDC per request, a 50% reduction. It also added a third way to pay. Developers can now settle in USDC on Polygon, joining existing support for Base and Solana . The pricing update applies to CoinGecko’s x402 endpoints, which the company still labels experimental. These are separate from its traditional API plans, which rely on keys and accounts. The x402 approach skips both. There is no API key to manage and no account to create.
