I was running my code at work, and it just went smoothly, but on a different network (Home WiFi), I keep receiving 403 error when accessing CoinGecko V3 API. It can be observed that accessing the API on a private browser (to test it) will prompt a security check (hCaptcha) to be able to continue.
https://api.coingecko.com/api/v3/coins/bitcoin/market_chart?vs_currency=usd&days=30
with requests.get(url) as source:
print(source.status_code)
I also tried pycoingecko (for checking) and still returns a similar error:
>>> from pycoingecko import CoinGeckoAPI
>>> cg = CoinGeckoAPI()
>>> cg.get_coin_market_chart_by_id(id='bitcoin', vs_currency='usd', days=1)
Traceback (most recent call last):

I guess Cloudflare is suspecting my network activity, but of course I am using Python scripts to access the API, obviously. Is there a workaround to get past the security check?
