CoinGecko Expands Crypto API Offering with Zash Acquisition

We’re thrilled to announce our latest milestone – we’re expanding our crypto data API offering with our first-ever acquisition of industry-leading NFT data infrastructure & intelligence company, Zash.

Founded by CEO, Parit Patel and CTO, Efe Surekli in 2021 at Entrepreneur First, Zash provides enterprise-grade, indexed NFT data across 87 unique marketplaces on Ethereum, Polygon, Binance Smart Chain, Solana and Bitcoin Ordinals. Zash covers NFT metadata, historical trades and lending data, and additionally deploys advanced data science techniques through its proprietary algorithms to detect wash trades at scale.

Why Acquire Zash?

At CoinGecko, we hold the vision where any asset that can be tokenized, will be tokenized. In that same vein, we believe that NFTs will continue to innovate and unlock new opportunities worldwide. Acquiring Zash will allow us to supply you with fungible & non-fungible token (NFT) data seamlessly in one integrated offering. This is in line with our commitment to provide you with the most reliable, comprehensive and accurate cryptocurrency data, and brings us a step closer to empowering the decentralized future.

What’s To Come

We’ll be incorporating new endpoints into our crypto data API by Q2 2024, covering:

• Enterprise-grade, indexed NFT data across Ethereum, Polygon, Binance Smart Chain, Bitcoin Ordinals, Solana and more
• NFT metadata and historical trades
• NFT lending data indexing Blend, X2Y2, NFTfi and more
• Wash trading detection for major collections on Ethereum
