Crypto history volume always 0
When I get RH crypto historicals the volume value is always 0. That is less than ideal for algo trading.
doge_history=rh.crypto.get_crypto_historicals("ETH",interval='5minute',span='hour') dh = pd.DataFrame.from_dict(doge_history) print(dh.iloc[-3:])

The formatting is bad, sorry about that, I'm not sure who to fix it, but the volume column is always 0. I tried 10min spans for day, week, also always 0.
The volume is always "0" for cryptos, through robin hood at least. I looked at the data on robinhoood's website through a web inspector, and the volume is always set to 0. I'm not sure if volume data is often provided for cryptocurrencies, at least in short windows.
