CoinMarketCap Expands Its Pro API With Real-World Asset Data Endpoints
Kwai Chung, Hong Kong, August 7th, 2026, Chainwire
CoinMarketCap has expanded its Pro API with a new suite of seven real-world asset (RWA) endpoints, giving developers a single programmatic source for data on tokenized versions of traditional financial instruments. The RWA endpoints cover tokenized equities, commodities, currencies, government securities, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), and real estate. They are available now.
The RWA endpoints resolve each asset through a stable identifier and span the full data lifecycle. An ID map and a metadata endpoint return descriptive and company information. Asset-list and quotes endpoints return aggregate tokenized price, market capitalization, and 24-hour volume. Market-pairs and issuer endpoints expose the underlying on-chain tokens, as well as the markets they trade on and the issuers behind them. Core endpoints are accessible on CoinMarketCap’s free Basic plan and above.
The RWA API launch coincided with a notable market moment. When SpaceX completed its public listing, CoinMarketCap published an RWA developer guide. The guide showed how to retrieve data on the company’s tokenized stock through the same endpoints, connecting a major traditional-finance event to on-chain data in one workflow.
The RWA endpoints expand an already broad API offering. Through a single integration and credit system, the CoinMarketCap Pro API delivers real-time and historical crypto prices, along with centralized exchange, decentralized exchange (DEX), derivatives, and liquidation data. It also provides proprietary indexes, including the CoinMarketCap Fear & Greed Index and CMC20, as well as real-time WebSocket streaming. The platform offers agent-native access through a hosted MCP server and pay-per-call x402 support, as well as a Keyless Public API that lets developers call a curated set of endpoints without an account or API key.
“Developers should not have to stitch together a dozen providers to build a serious crypto product,” said Rush, CEO of CoinMarketCap. “By bringing tokenized real-world assets into the same API that already covers spot, derivatives, DEX, and our own market indices, we give builders one dependable source of truth. Our goal is simple: to be the first and last data API a team needs.”
The expansion follows CoinMarketCap’s recent certification under ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27701, independently assessed by BSI, covering information security and privacy management across its platform and API.
