I particularly appreciate how PricePulse offers historical data, which can be invaluable for tracking rate changes over time and making more informed decisions in applications like trading bots or e-commerce platforms. The fact that it supports 168 currencies, including cryptocurrencies, makes it a versatile tool for a wide range of use cases. One potential consideration for users might be handling rate limit errors elegantly, especially when approaching the 100 request per day limit on the free tier - do you have any recommendations for how to implement this in a robust way?
