<p>I think you have to use a third party API. A price is just what an exchange or multiple exchanges see in real time when supply (sellers) and demand (buyers) meet at a certain price. So there is no authoritative neutral source of what the market price is at any point in time. Therefore I think you have to choose between an API provided by an exchange or a market observer (Bloomberg, CoinDesk etc).</p>
