The Crypto Data API Integration Checklist

Eight things to check before piping any crypto data source into your AI trading agent. Print, pin, scan when wiring the next one.

• Rate limits, costs, and source IDs — the cost+limits trio that bites at production scale.
• Freshness, schema stability, divergence flags — the data-quality checks most builders skip.
• Uptime + fallback plan — what your agent does when one source 5xxs for 10 minutes.
