Coingecko's API died again

Last night, again, Coingecko's free API crapped out on me and at 3am I had to take my whole @v4vapp system down for a few hours

I really need to add a call to CoinMarketCap's API as well for some resilience to this.

Wow the issue need to be resolved as soon as possible

That’s really annoying…😏

These things happen sometimes and can be frustrating. Nodes too and few hours later it's working again !

I'm almost done writing a redundant call to coinmarket cap as well so in the future I should be more resilient to this.

It's had two significant outages in the last few months which took my system down.

I'll soon have an automatic backup via CoinMarketCap too. I'll sleep better when that's working.

You powered-up at least 1000 HP on Hive Power Up Day and got the biggest Power-Bee!
See you at the next Power Up day to see if you will repeat this feat.

😂 I can't help but imagine you doing something just as seen in the gif! LOL 🤣
V4V is spectacular! Keep up the good work you're doing, and may the bumps serve to improve.

Ack! No fun at all. These are the lessons learned while V4V.app is still in the early days. Just imagine how busy the traffic flow will be in the months and years ahead. The second call to CoinMarketCap API will save the day (and your sleep) in the future.

Why cant we host coingecko on dstor.cloud by the telos eosio chain and have all of @coingeko @coingecko daily price feeds posted by a bot onto hive pists every day and let comments be full of RATINGS that use text in comments to upvote them and then display on a custom hive keychainfrontend
