## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Currency & Crypto Exchange Rates

Get **live fiat exchange rates and cryptocurrency prices** in one call — no API key. Convert amounts, track multiple pairs, and pull crypto market data (price, market cap, 24h volume & change). Perfect for finance dashboards, automations, and alerts.

### 🎯 What it does

**Fiat currencies:**

- Live exchange rates from any base currency to multiple targets
- Amount conversion (e.g. 100 USD → EUR, GBP, TRY, JPY)
- Dual-source reliability (er-api + frankfurter fallback)

**Cryptocurrencies:**

- Live prices for any CoinGecko coin (BTC, ETH, SOL, …)
- Market cap, 24h volume, 24h % change
- Price in any currency (USD, EUR, TRY…)

### 💡 Use cases

- **Finance dashboards** — feed live rates into your app or sheet
- **Price alerts** — run on a schedule, trigger on thresholds
- **E-commerce** — multi-currency pricing
- **Accounting / invoicing** — capture the rate at a point in time
- **Crypto portfolio tracking** — monitor holdings' value
- **Automations** — a reliable rate source for any workflow

### 📥 Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `baseCurrency` | string | Base fiat currency (USD, EUR…) |
| `targetCurrencies` | array | Fiat targets (empty = skip fiat) |
| `cryptoCoins` | array | CoinGecko coin IDs (empty = skip crypto) |
| `cryptoVsCurrency` | string | Currency to price crypto in |
| `amount` | integer | Amount to convert |

#### Example input

```json
{
  "baseCurrency": "USD",
  "targetCurrencies": ["EUR", "GBP", "TRY"],
  "cryptoCoins": ["bitcoin", "ethereum"],
  "amount": 100
}
```

### 📤 Output

```json
{ "type": "fiat", "pair": "USD/TRY", "rate": 46.82, "amount": 100, "converted": 4682.26 }
{ "type": "crypto", "coin": "bitcoin", "price": 64122, "change24hPct": 0.82, "marketCap": 1285833207105 }

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "targetCurrencies": [
