Stablecoins
Every tracked stablecoin with what it pegs to, how the peg is held, its circulating supply and its current price.
peg_type, peg_mechanism and symbol are on 100% of records, circulating_usd on all but two. The peg fields are the reason to use this rather than a price feed.
What's in a record
Every field the corpus returns for one record. Real shape — walked corpus-wide, not sampled.

Three concrete questions this capability answers that a general crypto API does not.
- Peg-risk screening as a filter rather than a research project: 253 of 428 are crypto-backed, 147 fiat-backed and 27 algorithmic — the mechanism that determines how a depeg behaves is a field, not a footnote.
- Non-USD stablecoin discovery:
?peg_type=peggedUSDreturns 339, which leaves 89 pegged to EUR (26), a basket (10), BRL (5), JPY (5) and others. Most dashboards never show these. - Depeg monitoring:
pricebesidepeg_typemakes deviation computable directly, with no separate oracle call.
Known limits
Required, not optional. Coverage gaps, staleness and parameter traps that were observed by running the curl above against the live server on 2026-09-18.
peg_mechanism contains a misspelled value.
One record reads crytpo-backed rather than crypto-backed. An equality filter on the correct spelling silently drops it. Normalise before grouping, or match on both — the value set is otherwise crypto-backed (253), fiat-backed (147) and algorithmic (27).
price is missing on 28% of records.
308 of 428 carry one. Depeg detection therefore covers roughly three-quarters of the corpus, and the gaps skew toward the smaller and more obscure coins — which are the ones most likely to depeg.
date is the record's own reading.
Each row carries its own timestamp rather than sharing a snapshot time. Compare circulating_usd across coins only when their dates agree.
