What One Key Returns
Where Velo Data Fits
0xArchive returns tick-level records, not desk charts; the cross-exchange charting layer is Velo’s product. Its docs describe futures, options, and spot data at one-minute-or-coarser resolution across venues such as Binance Futures and Bybit, with Python and Node clients, CSV downloads from the webapp, and unauthenticated product listing on the/futures, /options, and /spot endpoints. API keys are $199 a month; monthly billing includes 3 months of history, yearly billing the full history. When the job is desk charts and minute-level metrics across many venues, that workflow is Velo’s, and 0xArchive is not the right fit for it; this API supplies the raw resolution a chart cannot give back.
The resolution decides the reverse case: a one-minute cross-exchange series cannot answer tick-level Hyperliquid or Lighter order-book questions, and no dashboard export rebuilds the book behind the chart.
When To Use 0xArchive
One call replaces the collector you would otherwise build and run behind a dashboard. The market data comes back normalized, with named fields, live or historical: order-book records and trades back to April 2023, plus full order-level L4 depth with wallet attribution from March 2026 on core, Spot, and HIP-3, and from May 2026 on HIP-4, and Lighter L3 since March 2026. Store the request ID when the response exposes it, and check data quality before a backtest trusts the window. When the output has to become rows in a warehouse, inputs to a model, a replayable backtest, an API-backed feature, or a coding-agent task, you build on the data, not on a screenshot of it. Every route, market family, and schema is available on every tier, including Free, and agents reach the same routes through the hosted MCP server athttps://mcp.0xarchive.io/mcp.
