yfinance Crypto symbol list

Question

I am using yfinance in python to get crypto symbol pair prices. It gives real time data via its yf.download(tickers=tickers, period=period, interval=interval) function in a very nice format. I am wondering if there is any function in yfinance to pull out all the supported crypto-pairs without doing any web scraping.

After what I know about, YahooFinance uses CoinMarketCap to retrieve crypto market information. CoinMarketCap offers the API you request here which is not for free.

I would recommend you to transfer to the Binance API. It includes the endpoint GET /api/v1/exchangeInfo as documented here: https://github.com/binance/binance-spot-api-docs/blob/master/rest-api.md
