Crypto Conversion API
GET /api/convert $0.001 per call
USDC on Base · x402
Live crypto conversion at CoinGecko prices: any coin to any coin or fiat, and fiat to coin. ?amount=0.5&from=bitcoin&to=ethereum — common tickers (btc, eth, sol…) accepted. Returns the rate, the converted amount, and the underlying prices. Prices cached ≤30s; cheap enough to call in a loop.

amount | query | quantity of 'from' (default 1) | |
from | query | required | CoinGecko id or ticker (bitcoin/btc), or fiat code (usd, eur…) |

How payment works
There is no signup and no API key. Call the endpoint; it replies 402 Payment Required with machine-readable payment requirements. Your client signs a USDC transfer authorization (EIP-3009, gasless) and retries with the X-PAYMENT header — @x402/fetch does this automatically. See the overview for a working snippet.
