## Symbol list

**Endpoint:** `GET /crypto/symbols`

Returns enabled crypto spot symbols with display names and a "crypto" type discriminator; sorted for stable discovery.

### Request

```bash
curl -sS "https://api.tickerlayer.com/crypto/symbols" \
  -H "x-api-key: <YOUR_API_KEY>"
```

```python
import requests

res = requests.get(
    "https://api.tickerlayer.com/crypto/symbols",
    headers={"x-api-key": "<YOUR_API_KEY>"},
)
print(res.json())
```

```javascript
const res = await fetch("https://api.tickerlayer.com/crypto/symbols", {
  headers: { "x-api-key": "<YOUR_API_KEY>" },
});
const data = await res.json();
console.log(data);
```

```go
req, _ := http.NewRequest("GET", "https://api.tickerlayer.com/crypto/symbols", nil)
req.Header.Set("x-api-key", "<YOUR_API_KEY>")
```

### Response

```json
{
  "data": [
    { "symbol": "BTCUSD", "name": "Bitcoin / USD", "type": "crypto" },
    { "symbol": "ETHUSD", "name": "Ethereum / USD", "type": "crypto" }
  ],
  "count": 2
}
```

### Notes

Legacy `GET /symbols` merges crypto, forex, commodities, ETFs, and indices, not stocks. Prefer `GET /crypto/symbols` for crypto-only discovery.
