[Feature] Blockchair API sync for all blockchains

Open serrq opened this issue 1 month ago • 6 comments

It is not necessary that developer uses its own key.

Just build the architecture with API key field available.

Each user can create and paste its own key.

My backup is 690mb because it has to download all blockchains's data.

Not useful for a standard user.

Please remove the bug label. It is a feature request.

for EVM chains you can add your API key in the /path field (if it's a query param), but ok we can add that for other chains like BTC and LTC

I am not a developer. Might you add it as a regular field in the GUI?

it will heavily depend on the node operator, whether he allows the API key as part of the path or in a query param or in the request header, so we can't do much about it here, we offer the /path field so you can add your custom node with it's key whether it's included in the node path or if it's a query parameter

Custom node?

I mean the Blockchair API of the website, not my own node...

As per Blockchair API documentation, you don't need an API key for up to 1440 request per day, which I believe are plenty, but anyway, you can do that by entering the following: Address field => api.blockchair.com Path field => /bitcoin?key=api_key

you can replace bitcoin with whatever chain you want, but check blockchair first and add your api key instead of api_key
