CoinGecko security mapping

The cryptocurrencies imported with CoinGecko security mapping are created as securities of type M (Others) and subtype CC (Cryptocurrencies).

The mapping is used for creating securities when you choose ToolsCreate securityCoinGecko. You can use any search term in the ISIN Code or other identifier field. The created security is the first search result with the given term. For example, if you want to create Bitcoin Cash security, enter "bitcoin cash" in the field.

The Source field in the table refers to JSON entries in CoinGecko's /coins/{id} endpoint. See CoinGecko's API documentation for details.
