🔍 Tool Summary

  1. Crypto Map – Lookup CoinMarketCap IDs and active coins
  2. Crypto Info – Get metadata, whitepapers, and social links
  3. Crypto Listings – Ranked coins by market cap
  4. CoinMarketCap Price – Live prices, volume, and supply
  5. Global Metrics – Total market cap, BTC dominance
  6. Price Conversion – Convert between crypto and fiat

What You Can Do with This Agent

🔹 Get live prices and volume for tokens (e.g., BTC, ETH, SOL)
🔹 Convert crypto → fiat or fiat → crypto instantly
🔹 Retrieve whitepapers, logos, and website links for any token
🔹 Analyze total market cap, BTC dominance, and circulating supply
🔹 Discover new tokens and track their CoinMarketCap IDs
