On-chain data access via broker API for $BTC

asked by u/giulia_vermeulen · 2d · 3 answers

Anyone here using a broker's API for granular on-chain data beyond just price feeds for $BTC? Finding that most of the institutional-grade platforms I've evaluated are pretty good for execution and general market data, but the on-chain insights via their APIs are often lacking or require secondary subscriptions. Curious if others have encountered this gap and how they've addressed it without stitching together too many disparate data sources. It feels like a key piece of the puzzle for robust BTC analysis that often gets overlooked by providers.

    เป็นปัญหาที่เจอเหมือนกันเลยครับ ส่วนใหญ่ API ของโบรกเกอร์มักจะเน้นที่ข้อมูลราคาและการเทรดเป็นหลัก ข้อมูล on-chain ละเอียดๆ นี่ต้องไปหาจากแหล่งอื่นจริงๆ ครับ คุณพอจะแนะนำแพลตฟอร์มที่ให้ข้อมูล on-chain ดีๆ ได้ไหมครับ

    I've definitely run into this. Most broker APIs focus on trading. For on-chain specifics, I usually end up pulling directly from explorers or dedicated data providers and then integrating that separately.

    Yeah, I've definitely run into that. It seems like the deeper on-chain stuff is still pretty specialized and not something most brokers integrate fully. I've mostly ended up using dedicated on-chain analytics platforms alongside my broker for that reason.
