ERROR RESTY unexpected response from Yahoo API: non-2xx response code: 307 Temporary Redirect about ticker

Thanks for reporting! Yes it's likely related to an API change but the strange thing is the contract test is still passing which should detect this kind of problem automatically. I'll have a closer look today.

If you don't mind, could you share the country you are in? I've found instances where the API responds differently in various regions (e.g. EU because of GDPR)

Great stuff.

There was a bug which resulted in this error message being incorrectly returned. I've pushed a fix for the error message but the underlying issue is that Coingecko now effectively requires an API key to use (1-2 API calls / min down from 30 API calls / min)

{"status":{"error_code":429,"error_message":"You've exceeded the Rate Limit. Please visit https://www.coingecko.com/en/api/pricing to subscribe to our API plans for higher rate limits."}}

As a workaround, you can use the symbols for crypto assets listed on Yahoo (e.g. SOL-USD) rather than Coingecko (SOLANA.CG or SOL.X).

As a permanent fix, either Coingecko needs to be replaced by another price feed or an option needs to be added to set a Coingecko API key. Lookout for an update in the near future to address this issue.
