[R] getting historical data from cryptocurrency exchange
I need to download basic OHLCV (Open, High, Low, Close, Volume) in a hourly format from various cryptocurrency exchanges. There is the crypto package[0] but it has been removed from CRAN. Then there is the coinmarketcapr[1] package on CRAN, but it is limited to a paid service, coinmarketcap, which sell data. Browsing the web, I mainly found Python scripts to fetch the data, which I would like to avoid. Can anyone point me to any github or website with material about crypto data fetching with R? Thank you [0]https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/crypto/index.html [1]https://github.com/amrrs/coinmarketcapr

Hi, I've started https://github.com/daroczig/binancer for educational purposes, but since then, it became pretty feature-rich for the Binance API, and you can get historical data for free (see binance_klines).
