Zerion is a smart Web3 wallet and investing tool that enables anyone with a mobile phone to manage their DeFi and NFT portfolios, supporting hundreds of protocols. With a relentless focus on user-centered design and a technology stack that aggregates across every major wallet, network, and decentralized exchange, Zerion users get a single point of entry for managing their digital assets.
After a user creates, connects, or imports a wallet, Zerion shows their entire portfolio across every DeFi position, debt, and reward. With a few taps, users can see the current asset prices, average cost, fees, and total profit and loss.
Users can also trade any crypto asset directly from Zerion Wallet. Zerion’s trading aggregation finds the best price from across 0x, 1inch, major DEXes including Uniswap, market-makers, and other liquidity sources. Accurate cryptocurrency prices are crucial for Zerion Wallet’s key features.
The Challenge
Zerion needed to acquire cryptocurrency asset data as close to exchange-listed prices as possible through CoinGecko API. They wanted to show real-time cryptocurrency prices to create an accurate and reliable application for their end customers. Zerion hoped that using CoinGecko API would create a dependable environment to scale up the business.
How Zerion Leverages CoinGecko API
Zerion integrates the CoinGecko API to access one of the world’s most extensive repositories of independent cryptocurrency data, encompassing over nine million assets. The platform uses CoinGecko’s real-time pricing endpoints to fetch up-to-date asset prices, including those from pools and derivatives, allowing users to view accurate valuations directly in the Zerion Wallet interface. In addition to pricing data, Zerion implements CoinGecko’s token metadata endpoints to enhance the portfolio experience — icons, images, and descriptive details improve the clarity and visual consistency of asset displays. As CoinGecko continues to aggregate data from more than 1,500 exchanges, Zerion benefits from a reliable, unbiased feed that supports its goal of offering high-quality portfolio insights across chains and protocols.
Business and User Outcome
The integration of CoinGecko API has been instrumental in helping Zerion deliver a consistent and accurate product experience. With access to real-time data from over 1,500 exchanges through a single interface, the platform can provide reliable asset pricing, which is essential for user trust and product performance. The CoinGecko API’s broad endpoint coverage, ranging from asset prices to metadata, supports key Zerion functions while reducing backend complexity.
Developers on Zerion’s team have noted the ease of use and responsiveness of CoinGecko’s documentation and support, which helps accelerate implementation and reduces friction in ongoing maintenance. As a result, Zerion has been able to focus on building product features and expanding functionality, knowing the data foundation is stable and dependable.
