  title: PURPS API

  description: >-
    Everything purps.lol can do, as JSON. Read the coin list, a coin's full page
    and the launchpad; launch coins on purps.lol, pump.fun and Robinhood Chain;
    wire an existing pump.fun coin's fees into a strategy. No key, no signup. A
    write is authorised by your own wallet's signature and every transaction is
    signed in your wallet, never by us. Every response is `{ ok: true, data }`
    or `{ ok: false, error }`. Cross-origin requests are allowed from any site.
