Workflow name
Automated trending cryptocurrency updates from CoinGecko to Telegram

This workflow fetches the latest trending cryptocurrency searches from CoinGecko and automatically sends them to your Telegram group/channel.

✅ No account or API key required ✅ Uses CoinGecko’s free public API ✅ Sends formatted daily updates to Telegram ✅ Easy to customize schedule with a Cron node

Perfect for community managers, traders, or anyone who wants to keep their Telegram group updated with the hottest crypto trends.

How it works

  • Manual Trigger (for testing) & Schedule Trigger (runs automatically at set times)

  • Uses CoinGecko API https://api.coingecko.com/api/v3/search/trending

  • Extracts coin name, symbol, price (if available), and market cap rank

  • Formats into a readable Telegram message & sends the message to your configured group/channel

How to use

  • Import the workflow: Download the JSON file and import it into your n8n instance.

  • Connect your Telegram account: Add Telegram credentials in n8n using your Bot Token.

  • Replace the placeholder Telegram Chat ID (chatId) with your group/channel ID.

  • Adjust schedule (optional): By default, the workflow runs at 8:30 AM and 8:30 PM IST. You can change this in the Schedule Trigger node.

  • Activate the workflow: Once configured, activate it, and your Telegram group will start receiving daily trending coin updates.

Requirements

  • An n8n instance (self-hosted or cloud)

  • A Telegram Bot Token (create via BotFather)

  • Telegram Group or Channel ID where messages should be sent
