I believe this is the part that @EKAloji was referring to ^{[coinpaprika also has those terms]}:

Quote from: https://www.coingecko.com/en/api_terms
4.1 Your use of CoinGecko’s API is limited by the following:-
~Snipped~
4.1.7.3 use any Data, information or other content from any of our Property in any advertisements or for targeting advertisements, in any of your Products or part thereof;

I think this is not a big deal... You can't advertise Coingecko API data as yours, as far as I understand this text.

10,000 request per month is nearly 14 requests per hour, which is about 1 request each 4 minutes. It is good enough for most commercial services.

No, it does not allow data sharing.

I couldn't find anything related to "not allow data sharing". What line is bothering you? can you be more specific?

Found a couple more that might come in handy:

Coinranking's API - Their free version comes with "10,000 API requests per month"!
^{- I couldn't find any information in regards to sharing their data, but you can use it for "commercial purposes".}
CoinLore's API - It doesn't have any terms ^[AFAICS], so try to contact them prior to using it.

They clearly state that you can use it in your application and even charge for your application that uses their data.

Just add "powered by coingecko"

I also found this one. Which is free only for non-commercial use. Coingecko will fit your needs better:

Is there a service where I can get crypto currency data (price, market cap, 24-hour exchange etc.) free of charge and publish it with a 3rd party? All the api distributors I've found are damned forbidding sharing data publicly.

https://www.coingecko.com/en/api

This is the best free api.
