# Get Price History of an Asset
> Discover how to retrieve the historical price data of any cryptocurrency using the Mobula API. This guide offers a step-by-step walkthrough for accessing past price records, providing valuable insights into cryptocurrency market trends.
### What You'll Need:
1. An idea of what you want to build.
2. An API key from the [Dashboard](https://admin.mobula.io) (only for production use, you can use the API without an API key in development mode).
3. The name of the cryptocurrency asset or its smart-contract address for querying.
***
### Walkthrough:
Choose the cryptocurrency asset for your query. If using a smart-contract address, also specify the blockchain.
Perform the API request using cURL, Axios, or the Mobula SDK (Beta):
**Using cURL**:
```bash theme={null}
curl --request GET \
--url 'https://api.mobula.io/api/1/market/history?asset=Floki&from=1697648158'
```
**Using Axios**:
```javascript theme={null}
fetch('https://api.mobula.io/api/1/market/history?asset=Floki&from=1697648158').then(response => response.json())
.then(response => console.log(response.data))
.catch(error => console.log(error));
```
The API will return a detailed history of the asset's price, including timestamps and price values:
```json theme={null}
{
"data": {
"price_history": [
[1624623325000, 1.113340820039224e-9],
[1624626986000, 2.2957561345049817e-10],
// Additional data points...
[1683309600000, 1.7181969777003686e-7]
]
}
}
```
### Extending Your Insights
With the historical price data, you can:
* **Analyze Market Trends**: Track the asset's price fluctuations over time.
* **Assess Investment Opportunities**: Gain insights into potential investment decisions based on past price movements.
* **Enhance Financial Models**: Integrate this data into financial models for more comprehensive analysis.
