## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to surface what's currently popular or gaining momentum in the crypto market based on real user search activity. Ideal for dashboards, market pulse features, or alerting users to emerging coins. Prefer over Coins Markets when you want organic trending signals rather than sorted market-cap lists.
