ValueRay vs CoinDesk BPI: common questions

Which is more reliable, ValueRay or CoinDesk BPI?

Only CoinDesk BPI is on our probe schedule so far (—% uptime over 90 days). The other is catalogued but not yet live-checked, so we can't compare measured reliability head-to-head — check the uncovered API's own status page for now.

Do ValueRay and CoinDesk BPI need an API key?

Neither needs a paid key — ValueRay is callable with no signup, and CoinDesk BPI is callable with no signup. Both are quick to prototype with; rate limits still apply.

Can I call ValueRay and CoinDesk BPI from the browser?

Yes — both ValueRay and CoinDesk BPI send CORS headers over HTTPS, so front-end code can fetch either directly with no backend proxy. That makes them easy to swap in a client-side app while you compare responses.

Are ValueRay and CoinDesk BPI free for commercial use?

ValueRay has unclear commercial terms, and CoinDesk BPI is personal/non-commercial only. We track service terms and the data license as separate fields — see the Commercial use and Data license rows above, and confirm both before shipping either in a paid product.
