Crypto Asset Icons API

Asset Icons

Retrieve cryptocurrency, fiat, and digital asset icons through a simple REST API.

CoinAPI provides ready-to-use icons for thousands of supported assets, allowing developers to display consistent visual branding across trading platforms, portfolio trackers, exchanges, wallets, analytics dashboards, and financial applications.

Instead of sourcing, hosting, and maintaining logos yourself, you can retrieve asset icons on demand and keep your application's interface consistent as new assets are added.

What Is the Asset Icon?

Every cryptocurrency application displays assets in some way. Whether you're showing a portfolio, market watchlist, exchange rates, or trading pairs, recognizable icons make the interface easier to navigate and improve the overall user experience.

The Asset Icons API returns a complete list of available asset icons together with their corresponding CoinAPI asset identifiers. Developers simply choose the required icon size and retrieve URLs that can be used directly within their applications.

Because the icons are mapped to CoinAPI's standardized asset IDs, they integrate naturally with other CoinAPI APIs, including Market Data, Exchange Rates, and Metadata.

What Data Is Available?

List of assets and their associated icon URLs:

Field	Description
asset_id	Standardized CoinAPI asset identifier (for example BTC, ETH, or USD).
url	Direct URL to the asset icon image.

The endpoint accepts a single parameter:

Parameter	Description
size	Returns icons in the requested pixel size, allowing applications to use different icon resolutions for mobile, desktop, or high-density displays.

Why Use CoinAPI Asset Icons?

Managing crypto asset branding is more complicated than it appears. New assets launch regularly, existing projects rebrand, and manually maintaining icon libraries quickly becomes another dataset to manage.

Because the icons use the same asset identifiers as the rest of the CoinAPI ecosystem, they fit naturally into applications already using CoinAPI market data or exchange rates.

CoinAPI simplifies this process by providing:

Standardized asset identifiers
Ready-to-use icon URLs
Multiple icon sizes
Coverage for thousands of assets
Easy integration with other CoinAPI datasets

Example Workflow

A typical integration requires only a few steps.

This approach removes the need to maintain your own icon repository while ensuring a consistent appearance across your application.

1Request the list of asset icons for your preferred size.
2Match each asset_id to assets used in your application.
3Display the returned icon URL alongside prices, balances, portfolios, or trading pairs.
4Refresh the icon list periodically to discover newly supported assets.

Common Use Cases

The Asset Icons API is useful anywhere digital assets need a recognizable visual identity.

Typical applications include:

Cryptocurrency exchanges
Portfolio management apps
Trading dashboards
Price widgets
Wallet applications
Market screeners
Mobile finance apps
Crypto payment platforms
Analytics and reporting tools

Instead of manually collecting and updating thousands of cryptocurrency logos, developers can retrieve a standardized icon library directly from CoinAPI.
